HAIR REMOVALPut an end to slow, messy and painful methods of hair removal Shaving, waxing, tweezing, depilation and hair removal creams have been replaced by hair removal in a flash. Ellipse uses short bursts of safe, visible light emitted from a flash-lamp to remove unwanted hair from all body sites, safely and effectively. |  | |||
How Ellipse treatment works The Ellipse operator guides the visible light from the flash-lamp to the treatment area. The unique Ellipse system carefully filters this light in two ways to ensure that only light with the correct wavelengths is allowed to reach your skin. Hair contains pigment (melanin) that absorbs the light and converts it into heat. The hair transmits this heat into the hair follicle, which is then destroyed and unable to produce a new hair. To ensure optimal light transmission to the hair, a thin layer of gel (similar to that used in ultrasound examinations) is applied to your skin before treatment. The operator then moves the hand-held applicator over the entire treatment area exactly one applicator width after each flash of light. |
