There are 3 different types of hair removal machine and they all treat unwanted hair using an intense pulsating beam of light.

1. Laser machines

2. IPL machines

3. VPL machines

While there are technical differences between the machines, for the sake of simplicity, we often use the term “laser” for them all. At Caci we started with Lasers, and then progressed to IPL and now we use the latest generation VPL (variable pulsed light) in all our Caci Medispas. The variable settings mean that it can effectively treat the different types of hair found all over the body, from thicker underarm hair to finer facial hair.

Natural Light - How Lasers (and VPL) work

The short controlled pulse of red filtered light passes through the hair and is absorbed by the pigment (colour) of the hair. This absorption process produces heat, which travels down the hair destroying the follicle, along with its ability to regenerate. Hundreds of hair follicles can be destroyed with each pulse, resulting in an easy and effective way to treat unwanted hair.

Individual hairs are in different stages of growth so not all hairs can be treated in one treatment. Several treatments are required.

Seeing Results

Hairs treated will fall out naturally over a period of one to three weeks leaving your skin feeling smooth and looking silky. Due to the growth cycle that all hair goes through, several treatments may be required to help prevent hair growth in the treatment area. Your Laser Technician will advise you on how many treatments are likely to be needed.

All hair growth cycles are slightly different and some women, at a mature stage in their life, will sometimes find that some small hairs will appear gradually over time due to changed hormone activity.
