In the arena of hair removal technology, various athletes are showing off their muscles – IPL pulsed light is known as an all-around player, but there is always only one true low-key powerhouse: 808 semiconductor laser. This seemingly silent player showed the Rocket combination as soon as he came on the stage: the 808nm wavelength is like equipped with GPS navigation, which can bypass the epidermis and directly hit the hair follicle nest; The continuous output of laser energy is like an tireless marathon runner, causing hair follicles to completely surrender in sustained high temperatures. It is interesting that while other technologies are still using flash like intermittent attacks to scare hair, the 808 laser has already evolved into an intelligent temperature control master, with its energy output as stable as a Swiss clock, ensuring that the skin does not burn to the point of jumping and that every hair receives a death notice. Beauticians privately refer to it as a hair follicle hypnotist because during treatment, customers often wonder: even though they hear the instrument making a sizzling sound like an electric mosquito, their skin only feels a slight warmth like a kiss from the sun.

Uncovering the trump card of the 808 laser, you will find that its power comes from precise strikes in three dimensions. Firstly, the 808nm wavelength is widely recognized as the golden value in the medical field, which understands the principle of catching the thief first and capturing the king better than the wide spectrum of IPL, specifically targeting the targeted removal of melanin in hair follicles. Secondly, its energy density can be adjusted within a range of up to 50J/cm ², which is equivalent to the ability to freely switch between small hammer and hydraulic press modes. Whether it’s delicate lip hair or stubborn bikini lines, they can be easily handled with just one click. The most despairing feature for its opponents is its cooling system – just like installing smart air conditioning on the laser, the sapphire contact head always maintains a low temperature of 4 ℃, and the refreshing touch during treatment makes people feel like they are doing a facial SPA. No wonder clinical data shows that the hair reduction rate of 808 laser is over 90%, and customers who have completed 6 treatments often joke that applying sunscreen now takes longer than shaving their legs.
A Comprehensive Understanding of Hair Before Hair Removal
Hair is an important component of the human body, playing a crucial role in regulating body temperature and participating in skin metabolism. Therefore, keeping hair clean and healthy is essential for the body. Of course, due to evolutionary reasons, excessive and dense hair in some places is not only useless but also affects aesthetics, so it is best to remove it.
The growth cycle of hair is divided into three stages: from the active stage, through the degenerative stage, to the dormant stage. The control of hair growth cycle is related to the complex interactions between the two tissues of hair follicles and papillae. Due to the presence of nerves and the blood supply that provides nutrients to the hair in the nipple, the hair follicle has cells that can regenerate the entire hair follicle, making it a key focus of treatment. Research has shown that destroying these two tissues can remove hair without regeneration. The key to successfully preventing hair regeneration lies in accurately selecting appropriate targets in the hair follicles, selectively destroying the hair follicles and papillae with sufficient energy, without damaging the epidermis and surrounding normal skin cells. During the regrowth phase (i.e. active phase) of hair, both hair follicles and papillae grow simultaneously, and hair removal is most effective at this time.
An Overview of the Working Principle of 808 Laser Hair Removal
The basic treatment principle of semiconductor laser hair removal treatment device is selective photothermal decomposition. The outer hair root sheath in the hair follicle is rich in melanosomes, which can selectively absorb the energy of the laser. The 808nm laser emitted by this device is easily absorbed by colored hair follicles without damaging the surface tissue. The energy emitted by the light is absorbed by the hair and pigments in the hair follicle and converted into heat, thus increasing the temperature of the hair follicle. When the temperature rises to a certain level, the hair follicle will be irreversibly damaged, thus achieving the goal of permanent hair removal. The growth of hair is divided into growth phase, regression phase, and resting phase. The three periods are cyclical. Laser is only effective for growing hair and has no effect on regressing and resting hair. Generally speaking, hair during the growth period accounts for 1/5 to 1/3, so laser or photon treatment must be performed continuously for about 5 times to completely remove hair.
The Cutting-Edge Benefits of 808 Laser Hair Removal
- The higher the power, the better the hair removal effect, the shorter the treatment time, and the shorter the treatment cycle.
- Only with higher power can the pulse width be lower, and hair removal can be completed with almost no sensation during treatment.
- Safer treatment: The 808 laser wavelength reduces the competitive absorption of hemoglobin and epidermal melanin in the blood, and there are no adverse reactions (redness, swelling, blisters, or spot marks) during or after surgery, making the treatment very safe.
- Widely applicable: 808 laser has a deeper wavelength penetration, which can be better absorbed by hair follicle colorants, and is basically unaffected by epidermal melanin. Therefore, it is suitable for the needs of patients with various skin colors and hair types.
- Longer service life: The Rapid 808 Semiconductor Freezing Point Hair Removal Device adopts microchannel cooling technology, which can fully cool the laser and achieve an effective output of 15 million times, while the ordinary macrochannel cooling technology can guarantee up to several million times.
Effective Clinic Reactions After the Treatment
The operating area is slightly red and warm
The root of the hair follicle protrudes (like goosebumps), and the hair can be gently removed with tweezers
You can smell the smell of burnt hair
Some customers have very little hair and light colors, making it difficult to react in this way. The operating area is slightly red, and customers feel a sense of warmth when they feel it.
Q&A
Q: How many times should hair removal be done and how long should it be separated?
A: There are three stages in the hair growth cycle: growth period, regression period, and dormancy period. Only hair in the growth period can be effectively removed. The three growth cycles of hair alternate, and the length of each cycle varies in different parts of the body. After extensive clinical research, the hair removal interval is 30 days, and the hair removal rate is the highest, requiring 4-6 complete removal.
Q: Do thicker hair require more optical hair removal?
A: No, hair removal is not determined by the amount of hair. Depending on the hair growth cycle, generally 4 to 6 hair removal treatments can permanently remove the hair.
Q: What season is more suitable for hair removal?
A: Hair removal is wound free, does not require a recovery period, and can be treated at any time. Theoretically, it is non seasonal. However, hair removal requires multiple treatments, so it is recommended that you seek treatment as soon as possible so that you can wear summer clothes and showcase your beauty freely in the summer!
Q: What are the reactions of the skin after hair removal?
A: After receiving treatment, there may be a slight redness, which will subside after a few hours and will not cause skin damage or affect work and normal activities.
Q: Will hair removal affect sweating?
A: It won’t. Hair follicles and sweat glands are two independent structures, with hair growing from the follicles and sweat glands located next to the follicles. They are not the same thing. The process of hair removal only destroys the growth cells of hair follicles and does not affect sweat glands or sweating.
