How Laser Hair Removal Works
The Pearl Derma utilizes advanced laser technology to selectively target hair follicles to achieve semi-permanent hair removal without harming the surrounding skin. Our precise medical-grade lasers use selective photothermolysis to remove unwanted hair safely and effectively.
Selective Photothermolysis
Selective photothermolysis is the process by which laser light is transformed into heat energy only in areas containing targeted chromophores that absorb that specific wavelength.
Melanin pigment within hair shafts and follicles readily absorbs red and near-infrared wavelengths between 600-1100nm for hair removal. When our Gentle Pro or Duo Pro Alex hair removal lasers emit a beam of 755nm and 1064nm concentrated light pulses, the energy gets absorbed by melanin inside hair follicles rather than passing through human tissue.
