What is the Best Laser Hair Removal Machine out There?

A wide variety of medical lasers and light systems are used to remove unwanted hair, however most lasers are not effective for all skin types and hair colors. The Elos laser hair removal system is designed for permanent hair reduction by combining both optical and radiofrequency energy to deliver satisfying, longer lasting results with less discomfort than previous laser systems. All skin and all hair colors including gray and blonde hair are effectively treated. Faces, backs, arms, legs, faces, and bikini lines can be treated including those individuals with darkly pigmented skin. Treatments are administered every 4 weeks and generally 3 to 5 treatments are sufficient.

The most important factors when considering laser hair removal are: physician experience, your skin color, your hair color, and the location of your hair. Light skin with dark, coarse, fast-growing hair is the best combination. We've used Palomar's StarLux IPL system since 2007 with high patient satisfaction.

Hope this helps you.

The best laser hair removal experience is based not solely on the machine but also the facility , operator and policies.    Here are some questions to ask when doing your research:


What is the wavelength of the laser?  It should be close to 800, or in a range of about 775-825.

Who is certified to perform the treatment?

What is the provider's experience? Experience with skin types?

Who is the physician who takes responsibility if something goes wrong?

What is the time range for treatment?

What do you charge for touch ups after a package?


It is vital that he staff can answer these basic questions.  If not keep looking.  We use the Lightsheer Duet.  The new high speed head allows treatments to be done in a fraction of the time.   No topical medication is needed.
