Iranian Specialists Make Laser Hair Removal Device
“Our company produces medical equipment, skin lasers, and laser hair removal machine and has been able to indigenize different equipment by conducting reverse engineering on foreign samples with the same quality,” Mehdi Koneshlou, the technical supervisor of the knowledge-based company, told ANA.
“The device produced by our company is a type of diode lasers suitable for the skin of Iranians. These diodes include diode, alexandrite and ND-YAG; ND-YAG has a wavelength of 1064 nm and our company is the first Iranian firm which has been able to market laser diode devices with four wavelengths and high clinical quality at one tenth of the price of similar foreign models,” he added.
Koneshlou explained that the diode laser hair removal device works in direct contact with the skin and a special gel should be used while the non-contact laser works in the form of shots, adding, “We have also put production of non-contact laser removal machine on our agenda. We have imported a type of laser gel for the first time to Iran that no longer has the sticking problem of ultrasound gels.”
Diode Laser hair removal machines are long-pulsed lasers that usually deliver a wavelength of 800-810nm. They can treat skin types 1 to 5 with no issues. With a standard Diode Laser, you have to be careful when treating skin type 6.
When treating unwanted hair, the melanin in the hair follicles is targeted and damaged which results in the disruption of hair growth and regeneration.
A Diode Laser can be complemented by cooling technology or other pain-reducing methods that improve treatment efficacy and patient comfort.
