Our laser technologies at a glance
-
Alexandrite laser (755 nm)
Ideal for lighter skin types (Fitzpatrick I–IV) and dark blonde to dark hair. The specific wavelength precisely targets the melanin in your hair follicles and enables fast, reliable results – even with finer dark hairs. The laser is suitable for both smaller and larger areas of skin and offers you an efficient, low-pain treatment.
-
Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm)
Penetrates deeper into your skin and is particularly safe and effective for darker to very dark skin types (Fitzpatrick V–VI). This wavelength reaches your hair follicles without stressing the surrounding skin tissue, enabling safe treatment results for these skin types.
-
IPL / BBL (Broadband Light)
IPL technology (Intense Pulsed Light) and its further development BBL (BroadBand Light) do not work with focused laser light but with broadband light that acts on the hair follicles at different wavelengths.
Special filters limit the light spectrum to the wavelengths required in each case, so that only the portions effective for the treatment reach the skin.
Through the targeted use of light energy, the melanin in the hair is heated – slowing hair growth and permanently reducing it over several sessions. At SIACSKIN, this technology is available with the DERMAFORCE BBL PRO.

Electrolysis
For hair with little or no melanin – such as very light, gray or red hair – electrolysis offers an effective solution for permanent hair removal.
Unlike laser treatments, which work via the pigmentation of the hair, electrolysis is effective regardless of hair color.
With this method, a fine needle is precisely inserted into the hair follicle to destroy it with a targeted energy pulse.Modern electrolysis devices work with microprocessor-controlled energy pulses whose intensity and duration are precisely dosed. This enables a controlled treatment with low tissue stress that is particularly suitable for smaller areas of the face.
