LightSheer™
Setting the Standard in Laser Hair Removal

THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR OPTIMAL SAFETY AND EFFICACY

The LightSheer system was designed from the ground up for effective hair removal, providing unsurpassed safety and efficacy, reliability, and ease-of-use. Its advanced high-power diode technology delivers high fluence combined with a large spot size, user-selected pulse width, aggressive contact cooling and compression for high-performance unmatched by other high-tech hair removal systems.

Both in rigorous scientific trials as well as extensive clinical practice, the LightSheer system has emerged as the gold standard in laser hair removal.

The Innovative Technology of the LightSheer™ Systems

This System offers breakthrough features and distinctive advantages such as:

• The first system to provide permanent hair reduction using state-of-the-art, high-power diode technology

• Rapid, non-invasive treatment that is nearly pain-free and entails virtually no patient downtime

• Treatment of all skin types (I-VI), as well as tanned skin and pseudofolliculitis barbae

• Successful treatment of pseudofolliculitis barbae (PFB), leg veins and benign pigmented lesions

• Patented ChillTip™ handpiece with a 9 or 12 mm square sapphire tip that actively cools before, during and after treatment pulses to minimize patient discomfort and enables the use of higher treatment fluences

LightSheer™ Summary

Backed by long-term clinical data, the LightSheer system has the ability to permanently reduce hair growth and treat the entire range of skin colors and hair types, satisfying hundreds of thousands of patients and their providers worldwide. The ChillTip handpiece provides the ultimate in epidermal contact cooling and compression, increasing penetration of laser energy to the base of the follicle. The LightSheer system's efficiency, expanded applications, and excellent clinical results offer a new opportunity for business growth and increased procedural volume.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: How does the LightSheer™ Diode Laser System work?

A: The system emits near-infrared laser light that is absorbed by the pigment located in the hair follicle. The laser is pulsed, or turned on, for only a fraction of a second. The duration of each pulse is just long enough to damage the follicle, while the system's unique, patented contact-cooling handpiece, the ChillTip™, helps protect the skin by conductive cooling during the laser energy delivery.

Q: What advantages does the LightSheer have over other laser hair removal systems?

A: The LightSheer Diode Laser System was designed from the ground up for laser hair removal, so it has the wavelength, fluence, pulse width, and active epidermal cooling system - the ChillTip™ ideally suited for laser hair removal. The system is small, compact, and (in some models) portable, so it fits well into virtually every type of existing practice. The system's solid state construction makes it durable; it's state-of-the-art user interface makes it easy to use. Finally, Lumenis™ has been in the business of making medical and cosmetic lasers for more than 30 years to develop unparalleled service and support-from our extensive training and practice building resources to our 24-hour replacement service. No other hair removal system offers the same combination of product excellence customer service and support.

Q: Why should I use the LightSheer Diode Laser System rather than the methods I've been using for years?

A: The LightSheer Diode Laser System's design provides enhanced comfort during treatment, minimal risk of infection speed and accuracy. Since the system uses a unique cooling handpiece, it minimizes skin irritation that other methods may create. Since it is non-invasive (no needles to penetrate the skin), the risk of introducing bacteria into the skin is reduced. Because the system is fast, it allows for larger areas to be treated, considerably increasing the efficiency of the hair removal process, which allows more patients to be treated during a typical day. Finally, the LightSheer Diode Laser is a precise instrument that can be adjusted to damage only the hair follicle while minimally affecting the surrounding skin.

Q: Does the LightSheer work on tanned or different skin colors?

A: The LightSheer diode laser system safely and effectively treats all skin types (Fitzpatrick Skin Types I-VI) as well as tanned skin. For darker skin types and people with tans, appropriate fluences are generally lower and appropriate pulse widths are generally longer to prevent damage to the epidermis. Using the appropriate treatment parameters, people with all skin types can benefit from laser hair removal with the LightSheer.
