How quickly can I see hair reduction results?

SGS tested, our product achieves average 82% hair reduction in 8 weeks. Typically, you'll see less, finer, and softer hair after 4 weeks following the recommended usage frequency. Please be patient, as individual responses may vary.

Recommended usage frequency:
- 3 times per week for the first 2 weeks
- Twice a week for the following 2-3 weeks
- Once a month thereafter
*Additionally, you may adjust the frequency of use based on your skin's tolerance to achieve optimal results.

Is it dangerous without UV glasses?

Absolutely not.

Our products are safe to use without laser goggles. Our laser hair removal utilizes an single-wavelength laser(810nm/1064nm ). Unlike IPL, the consistent light of the single-wavelength laser can be vertically irradiated into the skin. The minimal refraction and diffusion of light by the skin are insufficient to cause any harm to the eyes. Our technology and design ensure safety, as long as you avoid directing the treatment window directly into your eyes during normal operation, preventing any eye damage.

Does laser hair removal hurt?

For most individuals, the procedure is virtually painless. To enhance your hair removal experience, begin with Level 1 and increase the intensity if you find it tolerable.

Can men use laser hair removal?

Sure, men can use laser hair removal. Our products are internationally certified (FDA, UKCA, CE), so you don't have to worry about safety.

Additionally, it can be used in the genital area. Please strictly follow the instructions when using it, starting from the lowest setting, and discontinue use if you feel any discomfort.

Where can l use the laser hair removal device?

You can use the laser hair removal device on almost the entire body, including the face, arms, underarms, hands, chest, back, stomach, legs, feet, bikini line, and genital area.

*When using it in the genital area, please strictly follow the instructions, start from the lowest setting, and it typically won't cause skin damage. If you experience any discomfort, please stop using it.

*Avoid the eye area when using it on the face.

* Avoid areas with concentrated melanin, such as moles, tattoos, etc.

Can I use laser on skin with birthmarks, moles, or tattoos?

You should not use laser on pigmented skin, as the laser concentrates more energy on the pigment, leading to potential skin burns or damage.

Can laser hair removal devices be used on the face?

Our laser products can be used to treat facial hair, excluding the periocular area.

How do I know if my skin tone is compatible with the laser?

Included in the box, each device comes with a User Manual containing a skin and hair color chart. Additionally, you can find it on our website. Compare and confirm whether your skin tone aligns with the specified color range.

For safety, the skin tone sensor triggers an alarm if it detects an incompatible skin tone after the device's initial activation. Rest assured, your skin remains unharmed when following the correct instructions.

Should I use gel before treatment?

No, it is not necessary to apply any gel before using our laser device.

Do I need to shave clean before treatment?

Before each treatment, it is recommended to shave clean instead of plucking or waxing. Shaving removes hair from the skin surface without affecting the hair root. Leaving hair stubble may result in the laser burning the hair, making it less effective and potentially causing skin trauma. Shaving ensures the laser can better target the hair root with optimal power.

How does laser achieve permanent hair removal?

During laser hair removal, the light transforms into heat, penetrating your hair follicle to reach the hair bulb. It disrupts blood vessels and the hair growth environment, where the laser exerts its effects. Laser is most effective during the anagen phase of hair growth, explaining the gradual process of permanent hair removal.

Can I share my laser hair removal with someone else?

For hygiene reasons, we advise against sharing your laser hair removal device with anyone other than yourself.

What is the lifespan of DermRays laser products?

Our products typically last approximately 5 years, depending on usage frequency. In essence, a single product provides 30 million light flashes before reaching the end of its lifespan.

What is Laser Hair Removal? What about IPL Hair Removal? What are their differences?

Laser Hair Removal:
Laser hair removal is based on the principle of selective photothermal effect, utilizing a focused laser beam with a single wavelength. This focused beam can penetrate deep into the hair follicles, where it is specifically absorbed by melanin to generate heat, causing damage to the follicles and preventing hair growth.

IPL Hair Removal:
Similarly based on photothermal effect, IPL hair removal uses broad-spectrum light with multiple wavelengths. Unlike laser, IPL light is not focused but can be absorbed by melanin on the skin surface and in the hair follicles, causing thermal damage and preventing hair growth.

Key Differences:
A) Light Source:
Laser: Single-wavelength focused beam.
IPL: Broad-spectrum light with multiple wavelengths, unfocused.

B) Pain During Use:
Laser: Mainly absorbed by melanin, resulting in less pain.
IPL: Broad-spectrum light absorbed by multiple tissues, causing a stronger burning sensation.

C) Treatment Effect and Duration:
Laser: Typically requires fewer treatments with relatively evident and long-lasting results.
IPL: Generally requires more treatments with shorter-lasting effects, despite similar energy intensity to laser.
