Candela: An Outdated System with Major Drawbacks
Why The Polylase Dual Wavelength Laser Outperforms Candela and IPL for Hair Removal
When it comes to laser hair removal, not all technologies are created equal. Many clinics still use outdated Candela lasers or ineffective IPL and SHR devices, leading to subpar results, increased discomfort, and a greater risk of skin damage. If you’re serious about achieving permanent hair reduction, it’s crucial to choose a laser system that delivers superior performance and long-term results. Enter the My Polylase Dual Wavelength Laser—the cutting-edge solution that outclasses both Candela and IPL.
Candela: An Outdated System with Major Drawbacks
Candela lasers have long been a popular choice in the hair removal industry, but the technology is outdated, slow, and, quite frankly, unreliable. Many second-hand Candela machines have been overused, repurposed, and poorly maintained—like "stepped-on cocaine" that’s lost its potency. Here’s why Candela is no longer the gold standard:
✅ Slow and Inefficient: Candela lasers operate with an older cooling system and pulse rate, making treatments longer and less comfortable.
✅ Second-Hand Problems: Many Candela machines in circulation are refurbished, leading to inconsistent performance and higher failure rates.
✅ More Pain, Less Gain: The outdated cooling technology results in more discomfort, making treatments far less tolerable than modern alternatives.
✅ Limited Versatility: Candela lacks the adaptability of dual-wavelength technology, restricting its effectiveness on certain skin tones and hair types.
IPL and SHR: The Illusion of Hair Removal
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and Super Hair Removal (SHR) devices are often marketed as cost-effective, painless solutions for hair removal, but the reality is quite different. These technologies are not true lasers and do not deliver permanent results. Here’s why they fall short:
- Not Permanent: IPL and SHR only target surface-level hair follicles, meaning hair will eventually grow back.
- Lower Power, Lower Effectiveness: Unlike true laser technology, IPL disperses light across multiple wavelengths, reducing its ability to precisely target and destroy hair follicles.
- Higher Risk of Burns and Pigmentation Issues: IPL operates in a broader spectrum, increasing the risk of burns, hyperpigmentation, and scarring, especially for darker skin tones.
- More Sessions, More Cost: Since IPL and SHR are less effective per session, clients require significantly more treatments to see minimal results, leading to greater long-term expenses.
My Polylase Dual Wavelength Laser Difference
Our Polylase Dual Wavelength Laser is the game-changer in the world of hair removal. Combining two powerful wavelengths, it delivers precise, efficient, and permanent hair reduction with superior comfort. Here’s what sets it apart:
- Dual Wavelength Technology: Our system uses both Alexandrite (755nm) and Nd:YAG (1064nm) wavelengths, ensuring safe and effective treatments for all skin types.
- Faster Treatment Times: With a high-speed repetition rate and optimised cooling system, sessions are quicker and significantly less painful.
- Permanent Hair Reduction: Unlike IPL and SHR, My Polylase actually targets and destroys the hair follicle, preventing regrowth over time.
- Safe for All Skin Types: Whether you have fair or dark skin, the advanced wavelength technology allows for customised treatments with minimal risk of side effects.
- Medical-Grade Precision: Unlike second-hand Candela machines, Polylase is new, medically certified, and built for professional-grade treatments with consistent results.
Conclusion: The Smarter Choice for Hair Removal
If you’re looking for the most effective, long-lasting, and comfortable hair removal experience, the Polylase Dual Wavelength Laser is the clear winner. It’s time to move away from outdated Candela machines and ineffective IPL systems and invest in technology that actually works.
