Photoepilation —
Hair Removal in a Whole New Light

Laser hair removal is no longer a marketing buzzword. With advances in technology and lowering costs, the light-based hair removal market is now a multi-billion dollar industry with millions of phototherapy hair removal treatments being performed each year. The pressure is on to offer effective photoepilation services in spas, clinics and salons throughout the world...

Approximately 80 percent of men and women aged 16 to 60 regularly remove face and body hair. However, concerns over cost and safety of light-based hair removal treatments have discouraged many potential customers.

LHE Breaks the Price Barrier

LHE light-based hair removal answers the needs and concerns of both practitioners and their clients. Its low energy levels create an ultra-safe treatment that requires minimal if any preparation or skin cooling.  The number of monthly treatments depends on the targeted area, with most areas requiring 5–8 sessions for effective and lasting hair removal.

Light & Heat Working in Harmony

LHE targets the melanin in the hair shaft, and then converts light to heat inside the follicle. The heat damages the bulge and the root, inhibiting and often preventing future hair growth.


To bring down the energy levels and increase safety, LHE relies on the synergetic relationship between Light and Heat to create an efficient photo thermal technique. With its unique light and heat combination, LHE maximizes the heat effect on the follicle without damaging the surrounding tissue.

How LHE Photoepilation Works

hair2

Flashes of broad spectrum light and heat are applied to the target area.

hair3

Light is drawn to the melanin in the hair, raising the temperature of the hair follicle.

hair4

Heat energy from the lamp is conducted down the hair shaft, increasing the hair follicle temperature.

hair5

The combined energies of light and heat result in the destruction of the hair follicle.
