Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is one of the most common cosmetic laser procedures. In general, devices for hair removal beam highly concentrated light into hair follicles. Pigment in the follicles absorbs the light which then destroys the hair.

Introducing the Motus AX

The most efficacious laser for hair removal (particularly fine and light hair) has historically been the Alexandrite laser. However, limitations when treating darker skin types kept it from being the universal choice for providers and many patients have had to settle for less efficacious laser hair removal options. Until now.

The Motus AX is the first, high–speed Alexandrite laser that makes it possible for even darker skin types to benefit from the effectiveness of this laser type. This breakthrough is possible because of Moveo technology – a handpiece that delivers fast, more efficient energy to destroy the hair in a way that is painless and free from side–effects.

Is a Motus AX Treatment Right for Me?

One of the breakthrough benefits of the Motus AX is that it is safe and effective for light to dark skin types. Whether you have fine, light hair or a darker skin tone, the Motus AX can be used to target and permanently remove unwanted hair.

The Motus AX may also be used with tanned skin; however, it is always recommended that you talk with your physician about your specific skin conditions before treatment.

What Makes Motus AX Different?

The three main differences between the Motus AX and other technologies for laser hair removal are: total comfort, speed and effectiveness of the treatment, and use across skin types. The Motus AX eliminates the trade–offs that come with other laser hair removal options. For instance, a NdYAG laser can be used across skin types but is less effective. Other technologies are highly effective but treatments are difficult to tolerate.

Will My Treatment Hurt?

One of the major benefits of the Motus AX is that the Moveo technology eliminates the discomfort of typical laser hair removal. Most people only feel a warming sensation making the experience a highly comfortable one.

How Long Will My Treatment Take?

Treatment length will vary depending on the area being treated. The Motus AX is relatively fast and able to complete a large area in under 5 minutes.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

A minimum of 6 treatments is recommended to see the best, longest lasting results. After your initial 6 sessions, maintenance treatments can be done as needed. Given the efficacy of the Motus AX, you may need fewer sessions and could go longer before needing a touch–up treatment.

While hair removal with the Motus AX is most common, the technology is highly effective for treating benign pigmented lesions. The built–in Moveo technology ensures 100% energy transmission to reduce lesions in any skin type without discomfort and side–effects.
