Laser Hair Removal
Laser Hair Removal
Is it possible to remove unwanted hairs from the skin almost painlessly, for many months, and without a rehabilitation period? The answer is – Yes! KindCare Medical Center offers Laser Hair Removal procedures using the SPLENDOR X machine from LUMENIS.
Splendor X is the only laser in the world for removing unwanted hair that uses BLEND X technology, which allows you to remove hair faster, more efficiently, and more comfortably than common Alexandrite, Neodymium lasers, and hybrid systems.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The patented BLEND X technology allows you to mix the radiation of Alexandrite and Neodymium lasers in the right proportions. Due to this, optimal spectral radiation characteristics are achieved for each phototype.
Splendor X is the first in the world to implement the technology of forming a square-shaped laser spot. Unlike common Alexandrite lasers with a round spot, this makes it possible to achieve a uniform distribution of laser energy over the skin’s surface. Now, Laser Hair Removal procedures over a large area can be carried out quickly and without dangerous overlaps, achieving great results.
IS IT SAFE?
Splendor X uses a unique Dual-Cooling System (DCS). The laser impact area is cooled simultaneously by a current of cold air and by contact. This technology guarantees a constant low temperature of the skin surface, which is of great importance for the safety of the Laser Hair Removal procedure.
Splendor X is the World first Laser Hair Removal device with a built-in smoke evacuation system and HEPA filtration. Splendor X reliably purifies the air, taking it into a smoke exhaust located directly at the point where laser energy is delivered to the skin. This allows Laser Hair Removal procedures to be carried out with maximum comfort and safety for the therapist and the patient.
