There are many different lasers that are used for hair removal. However, only the Alexandrite type with Moveo technology is suitable and safe to use for this purpose. A diode laser is also another type of laser used for hair removal. A diode laser works by emitting a beam that targets melanin in the hair follicles, preventing them from producing more melanin and thus stopping the growth of unwanted hair. An IPL hair removal laser uses pulses of light to destroy the pigment in the skin, reducing or removing unwanted hair on contact.
