Let's discuss the world's most popular laser treatments
Hair growth is a problem that every one of us faces every day. The same goes for hair removal for both men and women, as we all have areas of unwanted hair. The ways we can remove hair are multiple but only one is permanent, fast and medically approved. That is laser hair removal.
Women spend a total of over 58 days removing hair from their bodies.
Women spend on average 50 lei per month or about 10,000 Euro over their lifetime.
The mechanism of action is a specific wavelength association for melanin, the pigment that determines hair and skin colour, with absorption at the bulb (root) of the hair and irreversible destruction of a significant percentage of it. Alma's patented mechanisms such as SHR (Super Hair Removal) working in motion and Ice Cooling, built-in cooling, increase efficiency with an increased patient safety and comfort profile.
Hair growth is a cyclical process, alternating phases of rest and activity.
At the same point in time, hairs are at different stages of growth.
There are 3 stages or phases of growth: anagen, catagen and telogen.
Once the hair growth is complete, it starts growing again and a new hair is formed.
New Soprano Titanium/Platinium uses exclusive 3D technology combining the three most effective wavelengths Alexandrite 755 nm, Diode/Speed 810 nm and NdYAG 1064 nm in a single applicator simultaneously targeting different anatomical structures of the hair follicle, making it the safest and most effective laser hair removal treatment.

Laser hair removal involves the process of removing hairs by exposing them to pulses of laser light that target the hair follicle. This irreversibly destroys hair follicles to a significant extent. The mechanism of action is a specific wavelength for melanin, the pigment that determines the colour of hair and skin, with absorption at the bulb (root) of the hair and significant destruction. Laser hair removal started with IPL, non-selective wavelength with limited absorption on the hair follicle, laser treatments have innovated this treatment. The diode laser is the most widely used, the ideal wavelengths are Alexandrite 755 nm, Diode 810 nm and YAG 1064 nm with dermal and epidermal absorption to destroy as many hair follicles as possible and protect the top layer of the epidermis.
The Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) laser has both melanin and haemoglobin as target chromophores, with a non-selective wavelength of 500-1000 nm and absorption in dermal hair follicles, but also in the epidermis, with the risk of adverse effects. The laser treatments are adapted to the depth of the hair follicles to destroy the vast majority of them, with limited absorption in the epidermis and minimal risk of adverse reactions, and can also be used for tanned skin and light-coloured hair.
Anyone can perform this treatment to remove unwanted hair. There are also medical indications such as folliculitis associated with conventional hair removal techniques or medical conditions such as hypertrichosis (the presence of excess hair) or hirsutism (the presence of male-pattern hair for the female sex in areas where it does not normally exist, such as facial hair).
Soprano Titanium is world-renowned, state-of-the-art laser technology with the highest efficiency for hair removal. It features a Quatro 3D tip, a new, unique, and efficient applicator with a 4 cm2 spot size for faster treatments and a more pleasant patient experience. The built-in technology is 3D with Trio of wavelengths including 755 nm Alexandrite, 810 nm Diode and 1064 nm Nd-YAG to target all hair follicles. Alma Lasers has patented the SHR moving work technique with efficient epidermis cooling and moving work to deliver a sufficient amount of energy per unit area.
ICE plus is an advanced technology that continuously cools the skin and facilitates a controlled temperature and no associated discomfort for the patient throughout the treatment. This ensures patients will have a pain-free or heat/burning experience throughout the entire session, while ensuring the best clinical results.
Soprano Titanium is effective for all skin phototypes (including tanned/dark skin) and all hair types (including thin, blonde hair).
Hair growth is a cyclical process, alternating phases of rest and activity. At the same point in time, hairs are in different stages of growth.
The TRIO technology incorporated in the SOPRANO applicator guarantees the destruction of more than 95% of hair follicles, a result proven by histology studies. For large areas (such as the lower limbs or arms) a frequency of 6-8 weeks between sessions is recommended, and for small areas (facial or underarm) 4-6 weeks. On average, 6-8 sessions per treatment area are recommended, with maintenance every 6-12 months.
Yes, hair follicles are irreversibly destroyed by more than 95%, but over the years new hair follicles may appear and maintenance sessions are required every 6 months-1 year.
Technology FOUR is patented by Alma Laser and is the only laser with a 4 cm2 applicator that considerably reduces working time, especially for large areas such as the lower limbs. Whereas before this procedure took 60-90 minutes, now the time is halved and the patient has to spend in the office 30-40 minutes. For small areas, the time is between 10-20 minutes. After optimising efficiency by combining the three most efficient wavelengths, the working time has now been optimised and halved.
For Soprano Titanium/Platinum cutting-edge technology, ICE plus patent minimises the risk of burning at the skin surface, while retaining heat in the dermis where hair follicles are targeted. At the same time as the cap cools the skin surface, it prevents superficial burns and soreness.
Melanocytic lesions should initially be visualized with the dermatoscope and then covered during treatment. The risk of transformation of the lesions only arises when the treated skin suffers post-treatment burns. Side-effects are rare, with erythema, irritation or pigmentation changes being the most common.
Soprano Titanium is the world-renowned state-of-the-art laser with the highest efficiency for hair removal. The technology of this laser allows for fast treatments, up to twice the duration of the previous Platinum version, making it the most effective laser available today. The exact duration of a treatment session depends on the area treated and the characteristics of the hair.
