Permanent Hair Reduction with Magma Forma-tk

​Hair removal procedure has become one of the most common offerings by medical aesthetics clinics today. Forma-tk has developed a range of innovative technologies to offer the most effective and safe hair removal treatments. Forma-tk features hair removal treatments using IPL (intense pulsed light), 808nm Diode Laser and Diode Laser 1064nm Nd:Yag technologies.

 

808nm Diode Laser Hair Removal

The Magma System, featuring Forma-tk™s advance 808nm Diode Laser technology for Effective, Safe and Painless hair removal treatment for all skin types. The 808nm Diode Laser has three key advantages over older methods of epilation:

  • Comfort

  • Speed

  • Safety

 

Painless treatments

Due to the advance coolling system, hair removal treatment can be performed without causing skin irritation. The ALD applicator is equipped with a metal surface plate which is cooled to 4°C.

 

Fast treatments 

Using the 808nm Diode laser for hair removal, large areas can be treated considerably faster, increasing the efficiency of the hair removal treatment and allowing more patients to be treated during a typical day.

 

Effective treatments

The Magma is a precise instrument that can be adjusted to damage only the hair follicle while minimally affecting the surrounding skin. Lasertrolysis is a method of removing unwanted hair, utilizing laser energy targeted to the hair follicle to cause thermal damage and prevent further hairs from growing. The near-infrared laser light is emitted by the ALD applicator and preferentially absorbed by the pigment located in the hair follicle. The laser is pulsed, or turned on, for only a fraction of a second. The duration of each pulse is just long enough to damage the follicle, while the system's unique contact-cooling system helps protect the skin by conductive cooling during the laser energy delivery.

 

Treating all skin types

The Magma Diode system delivers a long wavelength (808 nm wavelength). Enabling the light to penetrate deeper into the skin while better avoiding the melanin pigment in the skin's epidermis. The long wavelength penetrates into the hair follicle causing only minimal epidermal injury.  This fact allows Forma-tk's Diode laser to be used on all skin types.

Pre-Treatment Care

  • Shaving within 12 hours prior to treatment will remove the necessary amount of extra growth, to avoid hair just being singed during treatment – unlike waxing, we do not need to see the hair on the surface to effectively eliminate it.

  • Under no circumstances should you expose yourself to direct sunlight, fake tan or a solarium. Apply sunblock liberally (no matter your intended activities for the day) and keep your skin thoroughly moisturised.

  • Do not wax or pluck for up to four weeks prior to your appointment. You may shave, but by using any other hair removal technique, you risk reducing the effectiveness of the treatment significantly.

  • Before heading into your laser hair removal treatment, ensure your skin is free of any cosmetics, beauty products, lotions, deodorant and creams.

  • Think carefully about what you intend on wearing to your appointment. Opt for loose fitting clothing that will allow you to comfortably expose the skin site to be treated easily. Also consider what will provide you with optimal comfort and minimal irritation after the session.

Aftercare

  • It’s important that you do not pluck or wax any hair on the area that was treated. By doing so, you will disrupt the treatment process which may lead to potential stimulation  of the hair follicle, in other words you could potentially spark regrowth.

  • Exfoliate the area once any redness subsides, approximately one to two weeks after your laser hair removal appointment.

  • Avoid extremely hot showers or baths for at least 48 hours after the treatment.

  • If discolouration/pigmentation occurs to the affected area, apply vitamin E to encourage soothing of the skin.

  • Avoid direct sunlight for at least two to four weeks after the treatment.

  • If you have undergone laser hair removal in a facial area, mineral makeup may be applied within the first 48 hours, but other cosmetics should be avoided until the skin has had time to heal.

  • Keep away from deodorants for at least three days to avoid causing irritation.

  • Whilst it’s not uncommon to experience itching, it’s important not the scratch the affected area. Scratching or causing a scab to arise may result in scarring.

  • Give your body 24-48 hours rest from excessive exercise, the gym or the sauna – these can all cause irritation.
