How Does It Work?

At Serona Medispa, we are committed to the latest technological innovations in this field and can now offer treatment for any skin type and hair colour, excluding grey or white. The ProWave™ laser hair removal treats skin types 1-4 and due to the large spot size and fast repetition rate, large areas like legs and backs can be quickly and effectively treated in at least 6 to 8 treatments. The ProWave™ contains two groundbreaking innovations. First due to the custom design, the ProWave™ emits mostly infrared light above 770 nm, wavelengths recognized as the most versatile for hair removal. The second innovation is the output spectrum that can be shifted to optimize treatment for each patient. Three distinct programs tailor the wavelength and pulse width to optimize performance and efficacy for each patient.

ProWave™ hair removal uses an infrared light to target the germ cell of the hair follicle. The hair must be present in the follicle for the laser to work, thus no waxing or plucking can be done before the treatment. Unwanted hair can be shaved or cut .The average number of treatments ranges from three to ten visits. This is because at any given time, only a fraction of the hairs are in the growing phase (anagen cycle). Only anagen hairs can be effectively removed with laser because the resting phase (telogen) hairs do not contain mature pigment at their follicle bulb which is the target for the light. Thus, one treatment will sometimes only get 30% of the hairs because only those hairs have enough pigment to be destroyed.

The FDA has approved our lasers for permanent hair reduction. Data has shown that about 30-90% of the hair does not grow back after the end of the treatment cycle. Of course, this assumes the appropriate treatment and the correct number of treatments for each individual, all of which can be variable. We cannot guarantee 100% permanent hair removal, as people do need occasional maintenance or touch-up treatments. White hairs and light hairs are the most difficult to remove. These may require more treatments and more maintenance, and more modest results should be expected.

Areas That Can Be Treated

ProWave™ hair removal has come of age and is a fully developed procedure that can yield long-term permanent hair reduction of the face and body. Specific areas of hair growth are easier to remove than others. Body hair is easier to treat, whereas more treatments are needed to remove facial hair, due to the effect of hormones.

Legs & Arms

Due to the large spot size and fast repetition rate, large areas like legs and arms can be quickly and effectively treated in at least 6 to 8 treatments.

Face & Neck

New breakthrough design enables higher peak powers and short pulse widths, targeting smaller structures such as the upper lip with less thermal diffusion.

Bikini Line & Underarms

Shaving, waxing, and depilatory creams are all temporary methods used to rid unwanted hair in sensitive areas which must be repeated on a frequent basis. ProWave offers permanent hair reduction for lasting results and no local anaesthetic is typically required.

Chest & Back

The Prowave machine has multiple programs that tailor the light wavelength and pulse width according to your skin type, enhancing the efficacy of your chest or back treatments.
