Laser Hair Removal
What it is?
-
SMARTDiode is a medical-grade diode‐laser system designed for hair removal, offered by clinics and advanced salons. 
-
It uses diode laser technology—a semiconductor laser producing light in the visible to infrared spectrum—targeting hair follicles via pigment absorption. 
-
SMARTDiode stands out because it incorporates features like adaptive triple-wavelengths, SHR (Super Hair Removal) mode, large spot sizes, and active cooling.
How it works?
1. The laser emits a light wavelength (or a combination of wavelengths) that is preferentially absorbed by melanin (pigment) in the hair follicle.
2. This absorbed energy converts into heat within the follicle, damaging the follicle’s ability to regrow hair (that’s the principle of selective photothermolysis).
3. The surrounding skin is protected via cooling technologies built into the device (for example, contact cooling, cryo‐cooling) to reduce discomfort and avoid skin damage.
4. Because hair follicles cycle through growth (anagen), transition (catagen), and resting (telogen) phases, multiple treatment sessions are needed to catch all follicles in the growth phase.
Key Benefits of SMARTDiode:
-
Effective on many skin types: The adaptive triple wavelength technology enables treatment of lighter and darker skin tones more safely than older lasers.
-
Faster treatment times: With large spot sizes and efficient delivery (e.g., “slide & glide” mode), larger areas can be treated more quickly than older single‐wavelength lasers.
-
Comfort and reduced pain: Thanks to SHR mode (lower fluence, high repetition) and active cooling, clients often report mild sensations rather than strong pain.
-
Longer‐term hair reduction: As with diode lasers generally, significant reduction in hair count is achievable with multiple sessions.
-
Versatility: Because of its technology and cooling, SMARTDiode claims suitability for “all skin types” and many body areas.
Summary:
The SMARTDiode laser hair removal system represents one of the more advanced options currently available for long‐term hair reduction. Because it combines diode technology, cooling, large spot sizes and multi‐wavelength adaptability, it offers:
-
Wider skin‐type suitability
-
Faster & more comfortable sessions
-
Better results than older or less‐sophisticated devices
If you’re considering it (or recommending it in a clinic), the strengths lie in selective targeting, comfort, and efficiency. But it’s not a one‐time treatment miracle - commitment to a series of sessions, selecting a qualified operator, and doing proper aftercare are key.
