Target-and-treat technology
MODEL: LATW-C

Innovative “Target and Treat” technology pinpoints individual hairs sending a laser beam to the hairfollicle with enough energy to disable the root without affecting the surrounding area. The treatment takes just 4 seconds and results in permanent hair reduction.

Target-and-treat technology

You can now enjoy the benefits of permanent hair reduction using laser hair removal at home, without paying for expensive salon treatments. Laser hair removal is suitable for most areas including facial hair, underarms, arms, legs and bikini line.

Innovative 'Target and Treat' Technology pinpoints individual hairs, sending a laser beam to the hair follicle with enough energy to disable the root, without it affecting the surrounding area. The treatment takes just 4 seconds and results in permanent hair reduction. Unlike home use IPL (Intense Pulse Light) the results of home laser treatments are permanent.

Home Laser Hair Remover™ features:

- Two treatment modes
- Targets individual hairs
- Permanently disables the hair root
- Security key

Laser Hair Removal Explained

Lasers deliver an intense beam of light which are made up of a single wavelength or colour. Skin is essentially transparent to light with a wavelength of 808 (nano meters), while melanin containing structures will absorb laser energy of this wavelength. It is therefore possible to target the hair follicle that has a concentration of melanin without affecting the surrounding area.

The light energy absorbed by the melanin pigment results in the rapid heating up of the hair follicle. This heat destroys the cells (papilla) responsible for hair growth. If adequate heating is achieved, then the follicle is permanently disabled resulting in a permanent reduction in hair growth. Note: This is different from home IPL (Intense Pulse Light) which requires continued treatments every two weeks to prevent hair regrowth.

Suitable Skin Types for Laser Hair Removal

Melanin in the epidermis also absorbs the energy and limits the depth of penetration of the laser light into the skin. Using a light wavelength of 808nm enables treatment of relatively dark skin as well as fair-skinned types. However, laser hair treatment is not suitable for Afro Caribbean or black skin complexions. Laser treatment is also ineffective in removal of white or grey hair. Electrolysis should be considered as an alternative treatment.

Treatment Areas:

Suitable for facial hair, underarms, bikini line and other problem hairs. Not suitable for use on removing large areas of hair.

Safety Features:

- The unit must be unlocked using a key.
- A security button sequence is required to activate the unit, this can be found in the information guide.
- The Salon Laser also features a bright orange light which will cause you to blink if pointed directly at the eye.
- In addition the laser will only operate if both touch pins are in contact with the skin.
- The laser is also shielded to avoid any risk from reflected light.
- When moving the Wand to the next area, ensure the Touch Pins are briefly lifted off the skin to allow the laser to reset.
- Treat each area only once in each session.

How to Use

STEP1. Before you start:

1. Read and understand the Information Guide provided and watch the step-by-step DVD for great tips and techniques.
2. Remove all jewellery in the vicinity of the treatment area.
3. You may find it helpful to use a mirror for treating hard to see areas, such as the face and underarms. A mirror with 5–10 times magnification is ideal for this.
4. The hair needs to be visible enough for the laser to be aimed at the base of the hair. Long hairs may be trimmed before treatment if necessary.
5. Patch Test: 24 hours before treatment it is very important to do a patch test. The patch test will confirm the maximum power level for your skin type. Each area to be treated must be checked as skin colour can vary.

Step 2: Correctly enter the Security Button Sequence, then by using the +/- buttons to select the correct power level for your skin type followed by the Enable button.

Step 3: Place the wand over the hair you wish to treat. Ensure both skin sensors are in contact with the skin (you may need to apply gentle pressure).
The white ‘ready’ light will illuminate.

Step 4: HALF press the treatment button on the wand. A red guide light will appear. You can move the wand while maintaining contact with the skin to target where the hair meets the skin. Ensure both skin sensors do remain in contact with the skin.

Step 5: FULLY press the button on the wand for treatment. The white light will go out and the red laser will be visible. You will hear a series of beeps.

Note: Do NOT move the wand during treatment

Step 6: When treatment ceases the orange light will come back on. Both skin sensors must be removed briefly from the skin before treating the next hair

Note: Treated hairs don’t always fall out immediately as they are shed over time as they are released from the hair follicle so be patient. Laser hair removal is generally considered to be effective after 6 treatments over a 6-month period. IPL (Intense Pulse Light) home approved products generally require ongoing treatments every two weeks to prevent hair regrowth.
