Elos Hair Removal
Elos (electro-optical synergy) uses a unique combination of a pulse
light energy and radio frequency. Gentle pulses of targeted energy isolate the
treatment area and leave the surrounding skin free from potentially harmful
side effects.
The gentle light and electric energies break up the pigment and/or blood in
lesions and stimulate the collagen restructuring and/or production, restoring
skin to a more youthful state. Brown spots (pigmented imperfections) from sun
damage and aging, red blotchiness from broken capillaries or rosacea (vascular
imperfections) and rough skin texture will improve over a treatment series.
The average procedure takes 30-45 minutes.
Treatments are repeated every 2-4 weeks for an average of five treatments.
The sensation is often described as a “hot pinch” or “snapping” feeling. The
sensation only lasts for a fraction of a second and warmth and/or a tingling
sensation is experienced for a short time afterward.
Temporary pinkness in the skin lasts a very short time, and most people return
to work or normal activities immediately after treatment. The improvement in
pigmented and vascular irregularities can often be appreciated before the next
treatment a month later. Brown spots temporarily go darker before they lighten.
Each elos FotoFacial treatment will result in gradual lightening and
improvement of pigmented and vascular imperfections. Textural improvements are
appreciated towards the end of the treatment series.
