What is the Lumenis Splendor X?
The Splendor X laser from Lumenis is a cutting-edge device that combines multiple wavelengths into one treatment. Here’s what makes this device so effective:
What concerns can Lumenis Splendor X address?
In addition to semi-permanent laser hair removal, the Lumenis Splendor X laser can also improve the following cosmetic concerns:
Fine lines and wrinkles
Uneven skin tone
Vascular lesions
Pigmented lesions
How does the Lumenis Splendor X work?
Unlike most other devices, the Lumenis Splendor X features Blend X™ technology, which utilizes binary laser emission to deliver multiple wavelengths simultaneously. Your provider can carefully calibrate the device to balance Alexandrite (755 nm) and Nd:YAG (1064 nm) wavelengths for a specialized treatment session.
This laser, like many others on the market, targets the melanin in hair to destroy the follicles and eliminate discoloration.
Who’s a good candidate for treatment using Lumenis Splendor X?
Since the Splendor X device uses binary laser emission, it can safely treat a wide range of skin types and tones. That being said, patients with inflammatory skin conditions and active infections should consult with their doctor or skincare professional before receiving laser treatments.
Advantages of Lumenis Splendor X for laser hair removal
Still wondering what makes the Lumenis Splendor X Laser one of the best in the industry? Here are just a few of the many benefits of this powerful device:
Safe for all skin tones
Some types of laser hair removal devices are only compatible with a limited range of skin tones. Since lasers target melanin, those with darker complexions may experience limited results and have a higher risk of burns with old-school laser treatments.
The Lumenis Splendor X can adjust to various skin tones to treat a wider variety of complexions, bringing safe and effective semi-permanent hair removal to a broader clientele.
Long-lasting results
Once you eradicate lesions and areas of discoloration with the Splendor X laser, that hyperpigmentation will vanish for good. While new dark spots may appear over time due to sun exposure, hormonal changes, and the effects of aging, those specific spots will be permanently eliminated.
You can also expect long-term results from your laser hair removal sessions. The device generates light waves that destroy each hair root within the follicle, so new strands can’t develop in the future.
Your body may create new hair follicles over time, but occasional touch-up sessions can help you maintain your results. When comparing laser hair removal with waxing, many find that the cost of laser hair removal is more affordable in the long run.
Fast and effective
The Lumenis Splendor X features a square spot size rather than the traditional circular pattern to cover more surface area. Plus, its rapid repetition rate means your treatments take less time.
What to expect from laser hair removal with Lumenis Splendor X
Make the most of your laser hair removal appointments by prepping your skin and following appropriate aftercare instructions. Here’s what you can expect before, during, and after your first Splendor X treatment:
Before your appointment
Since lasers remove unwanted hair by seeking out melanin, you’ll want to encourage a higher contrast between your hair and skin tones and prep the right way for your laser treatment. Avoid sun exposure and sunless tanner starting four to six weeks before your session to enhance efficacy and minimize the risk of burns.
This is also a good time to stop waxing, tweezing, and plucking hairs in the treatment area. Instead, allow your hair to grow naturally and shave the day before your appointment.
During your appointment
Laser hair removal sessions are fast and easy and generally take between 10 and 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area. You might experience a warming sensation or gentle sting that dissipates quickly. Most people see complete results within six to 12 treatments, with the average being eight treatments.
Following your appointment
Be aware that you could experience mild redness, swelling, or inflammation in the days after laser hair removal. So follow proper laser hair removal aftercare and stay away from saunas, hot tubs, and steamy showers until your skin has healed completely.
Avoid intense exercise and friction, too. Once your skin returns to normal, gently exfoliate the treatment area to help your body shed targeted strands and minimize the risk of ingrown hairs. Be sure to schedule your next appointment for four to 12 weeks after your initial session!
