Your Path to Smooth Skin Starts with Cynosure Lutronic

At SilkySkin Laser Centers, we utilize the cutting-edge Cynosure Lutronic systems with SmartCool 6, one of the most advanced laser hair removal systems available today. This state-of-the-art technology combines two highly effective laser wavelengths to deliver outstanding results. The 755-nm wavelength, commonly known as the Alexandrite or “Alex” laser, is ideal for treating light skin. The 1064-nm wavelength, referred to as the Nd laser, is the safest and most effective option for darker or tanned skin tones.

To enhance comfort and safety, the Cynosure Lutronic Clarity II is complete with the Cryogen cooling system, which continuously delivers chilled product during treatments, ensuring a comfortable experience and protecting your skin.

This innovative combination allows us to safely and effectively treat a wide range of skin types, making it a versatile solution for all. Additionally, the system is optimized to address more than just hair removal. It is highly effective in treating facial and leg spider veins, reducing the appearance of sun and age spots, and improving overall skin tone.

the difference between Laser and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

Some hair removal centers offer IPL (Intense Pulsed Light), but it’s important to note that IPL is not the same as laser technology. IPL devices produce an intense flash of broad-spectrum light, much like the flash on older cameras. While IPL can be effective for individuals with light skin and dark hair, it carries a higher risk for those with darker skin tones, potentially leading to burns.

In comparison, true laser systems emit a concentrated beam of light at specific wavelengths, making them safer and more effective for a broader range of skin types. The Alexandrite laser is widely regarded as the gold standard for light skin, while the Nd laser is considered the safest and most reliable option for darker or tanned skin.

Here are some of the differences between the two technologies:

Treatment Laser Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
Hair Removal (Light Skin) Excellent (Alexandrite) Good
Hair Removal (Dark Skin) Excellent (Nd:YAG) May cause burns
Spider veins Excellent (Nd:YAG) Very Good (Light skin only)
Fine Lines & Wrinkles Very Good (Nd:YAG) Limited
Superficial Pigmentation Excellent (Alexandrite) Excellent (Light skin only)
Deep Pigmentation Excellent (Alexandrite) Limited
