Laser Hair Removal System

 

The F1 Diode Laser™ developed by INO for OPUSMED Inc.

Client
OPUSMED Inc.

 
 

Background

Our partner OPUSMED INC. wanted to provide its clients (doctors and skin care professionals) with a safe and comfortable laser hair removal system that could effectively be used to treat a wide range of skin colors and types. The device also had to be compact, lightweight, robust, and easy to transport.

Solution

We therefore developed a fiber optic–based high-energy laser diode hair removal system. The system emits a light beam with a wavelength of 810 nm, which is selectively absorbed by the skin’s follicular melanin without the need to increase fluence. This makes it possible to safely treat a wide range of skin types (I–VI). The laser pulse duration (15–40 msec.) closely matches the thermal relaxation time (TRT) of hair follicles while sparing the epidermis. This confined heat more effectively targets the hair follicles being treated. Thanks to a constant rate of repetition of 4 pulses per second and a broad beam (up to 7 mm), our laser hair removal system allows for quick treatment.

 

Plus…

The user-friendly interface includes a touch screen and a PC platform with advanced functions for fast and easy upgrades. The system is lightweight, rugged, and compact. It is approved by the FDA and Health Canada and is UL and CE certified. The delivery head includes removable optics designed by INO for beam width selection.

Proven effectiveness

OPUSMED INC. Commissioned a 36 month clinical study to evaluate the effectiveness of the INO system. The findings of this study, conducted by Université de Montréal dermatologist Dr. Daniel Barolet, are available at the following address: www.opusmed.com
