How does light work on hair or skin The basic principle is based on the “selective heating of the target”. Light is absorbed selectively by melanin pigments in the hair shaft or other skin components. Heat is generated and transmitted to the target causing its damage without damaging surrounding tissue.
How does Radio Frequency energy work Radio Frequency (RF) is an electric current that heats the hair follicle but not the epidermis. The heat around the hair follicle becomes four times higher than the surrounding tissue. RF current has the advantage of heating the hair follicle directly and not through heat transfer from the shaft. It is independent of skin pigments, therefore it is not sensitive to skin colour & will not be selectively absorbed by pigmented areas, thus it cause less pigmentation problems. It has no epidermal barrier to absorption as with optical energy and can better penetrates the tissue.
What does it feel like Light pulse produce a slight tingling feeling. In sensitive area, such as the upper lip, it may feel like a quick pinch. These sensations are painless & much reduced by the system cooling mechanism.
What about side effects Energies used by the Aurora are commonly used and have proven to be safe. Most people experience no side effects at all, few show some short-term local reddening or irritation. Temporary or permanent blistering or discolouration are rare and more with dark skin since it contains more melanin. Aurora is FDA approved for all skin types.
Is it for everyone Aurora can be customized to exactly match hair and skin colour & type. As long as there is some colour in the hair or skin (even blond hair has enough colour), then aurora will be effective
How many treatments are needed Light need the hair shaft to be transmitted to the follicle. Therefore it destroys hair that are in the active phase of growth. Since hair grow in cycles, repeat treatments will be needed. For rejuvenation, excellent results can be achieved in a single session. Multiple lesions may need several treatments. Number of treatments depends on hair & skin colour and type and the treated part. Usually 4 - 6 times are required.
What are the results Results are affected by different parameters and skin variations. Aurora has been proven to be effective for long term hair reduction and to reduce skin irregularities, vascular lesions and pigments. At the end of treatments you can expect your skin to be smooth. It is possible to return to normal activities immediately after treatments.
Since RF is used, only part of optical energy is required thus provide lower risk of side effects.
Aurora has a built-in active pre-cooling mechanism to reduce temperature caused by energies on skin surface and structures that are not targeted. This minimizes pain and no need for cooling gels.
The device has a safety monitoring system. The total energy applied to skin is regulated by change in skin temperature, this improves safety and reduces side effects.
It can be used for all for all skin types and lighter hair colour without compromising efficacy or safety.
Aurora is highly efficient, safe system to smoothen skin texture & remove hair, lesions, Spider Veins, Rosaceae, sun damaged skin, age spots & tattoos
