IPL&laser hair removal
TheUltraPlusVPL is the latestVPL™ systemfromEnergist, using proven Variable Pulsed Light Technology, to enable you to offer tailored hair removal to clientswith skin types I toV.
“Laser treatment on darker ethnic skins or artificially colour enhanced (sun-tanned or tanning methods) carries an increased risk of treatment-related complications and must be approached with extreme care.Appraisal of the patient demographic that the clinic wishes to service, should be an important criteria for the clinic selecting a particular light technology to invest in as often the technology suitable for pale skins may not be suitable for darker skin types and vice versa.”
Whilst necessity to register with the QCQ was removed in October 2010, the recent report by Dr Bruce Keogh, the health service's medical director, outlines the lack of regulation in this area of cosmetic treatment. Therefore, it’s imperative that you are fully trained in the treatments you are offering, that the system you purchase is covered by CE certification, and that it is from a reputable supplier who can offer follow-on training where necessary and who can advise on relevant treatment protocols. Also ensure that you have adequate therapy insurance which covers IPL and Laser treatments, which is likely to be an added extra to your standard therapy insurance policy.

The EpsilonMulti Filter, from Advanced Esthetics Solutions, combines the wide
selectivity of Nd:YAG Laser and the speed of Intense Pulsed Light technologies in one system. Epsilon systems use Nd:YAG which is very precise and selective, so it's suitable for hair removal treatments for dark skin types and sensitive areas.
According toAdvanced Esthetics Solutions, high powered 1064-nm Nd:YAG is the safest wavelength for permanent hair deduction on darker skin types (Fitzpatrick scale I-VI). It includes a variety of spot sizes and adjustable pulse durations, enabling you to customise your treatments to your clients’ specific needs, even those with finer hair and higher melanin content, by delivering enough energy to destroy hair follicles yet protect the surrounding tissue fromthermal injury.
The system’s IPL technology is designed to deliver a light pulse which consists of sequences of rapid short pulses, which ensure controlled absorption of light by the target chromophone whilst minimising heating of the surrounding tissue. The system’s integrated water cooling system has been designed for both the electronics and handpiece, which are available with a high-purity sapphire built-in variable chilling system.
