Introduction: What is Alexandrite Laser Hair Removal and how does it work?
Alexandrite laser hair removal is a type of laser hair removal that uses a specific wavelength of light and targets melanin in the follicle. Laser hair removal devices use pulses of light to remove unwanted hair. The pulses are focused on the follicle, where the hair root is located. The light energy damages the cells in that area, preventing them from producing new hair. There are many different types of laser devices that target melanin in different ways, but alexandrite is one of the most popular options because it is more effective than other types.
How the alexandrite laser differs from diode lasers for hair removal
Alexandrite lasers are more powerful than diode lasers and are therefore more suitable for removing hair on large areas of the body. Diodes are less powerful. Alexandrite lasers can also be used to target a specific skin type or hair color. Alexandrite laser with Moveo technology can be used for all skin types (Fitzpatrick I - VI).
