APPARATUS FOR LASER DEPILATION

摘要

An economical, effective, safe laser depilation device for cosmetic treatment is provided in which a semiconductor laser diode is controlled to produce an appropriate level of laser energy. A semiconductor laser diode used produces optical output of 5 to 1500 mW at a peak wavelength of 600 to 1600 nm. A semiconductor laser diode controller includes means for controlling the pulse output of laser and means for setting the duration of laser emission. The energy level of laser can be controlled to selectively emit high-level energy for a short time or low-lever energy for a long time depending on various kinds of hair to be removed. In addition to irradiation, forced air or suction is effectively used to focus the laser beam on the skin and cool the skin.
