How Laser Hair Removal Works
TARGETING HAIR FOLLICLES
Each hair follicle on your head goes through a growth cycle consisting of three phases. The first phase, called the anagen phase, is when the individual strand of hair is actively growing.
This phase lasts the longest – up to 7 years in some cases! After the anagen phase is complete, the catagen phase begins. This is a short phase that lasts around 10 days. The telogen phase is the final stage, where the follicle releases the strand of hair and it falls out. The follicle then stays inactive for about three months before once again starting the active anagen phase. Laser hair removal works by targeting hair follicles in the active anagen phase. These follicles absorb the light emitted by the laser, which is then converted to heat that damages the follicle and prohibits future hair growth. Since only hairs in the anagen phase can be targeted, several laser hair removal treatments are necessary to achieve most people’s goals.
What Makes Lightsheer Laser Hair Removal Different?
The LightSheer laser system is truly remarkable and offers a greater versatility than many other laser hair removal options that are available.
With both 805 nm and 1060 nm wavelengths, it can be used on any skin type, and can be customized based on your:
- Hair color

The LightSheer QUATTRO laser hair removal includes several features that truly set it apart. It is equipped with a high-speed vacuum assisted technology for hair removal as the laser works to target the hair follicle and prevent future growth. The laser energy is delivered more efficiently than many other lasers and provides rapid coverage for fast treatment times, without any gels or anesthetics necessary. In addition, ChillTip™ integrated cooling technology is used to keep your skin cool and comfortable during treatment, resulting in decreased pain and keeping your skin healthy and protected.
