The 1064 YAG wavelength features lower melanin absorption, making it a targeted solution for darker skin types.
At the same time, 1064nm offers the deepest penetration of the hair follicle, allowing it to target the bulb and papilla, as well as treat deeply embedded hair in areas such as the scalp, underarms and pubic areas.
With higher water absorption generating a higher temperature, the incorporation of 1064 nm increases the thermal profile of the overall laser treatment for more effective hair removal.
