Ultra-safe, Ultra-effective, Ultra-sound
Applisonix is the industry’s first clinically proven ultrasound-based hair removal system offering pain free treatments without side effects. In controlled clinical studies Applisonix compares favourably with top medical laser systems achieving 38% hair reduction after the first 2 treatments. Applisonix works effectively on all hair colours and is safe for all skin types.
About Applisonix Ultrasound System.
The IMPRESA™ technology utilizes the hair and the skin characteristics to make the hair serve as an accurate and efficient ultrasonic waveguide. An ultrasonic head is used to focus the acoustic energy directly into the hair shaft, channeling ultrasound energy precisely to the hair root, where the energy is converted into heat. As a result, the hair root`s temperature rapidly exceeds the level that is required to cause long-term damage to the hair’s re-growth mechanisms. Since the energy is accurately applied through the hair shaft, the surrounding skin is not affected. IMPRESA™ is applicable to all hair colors and skin tones, engaging negligible pain (if any), and it can be used safely for almost all body areas.
IMPRESA™ technology is used in Applisonix’ hair removal device for professional use.
Frequently Asked Questions
A. The applisonix treatment is virtually pain free as the ultrasound waves do not dissipate in to the surrounding skin tissue which contain the main pain receptors . thereby the treatment can be carried out on even the most sensitive areas.
A. Unlike laser hair removal all colour hairs can be treated as the ultrasound technology does not rely on the colouring ( melanin ) in the hair to be effective . applisonix is even effective an real fine downy hair which was previously not treatable.
A. Irrespective of the colour of your skin , you are suitable for applisonix treatments as the skin is not effected . applisonix technology can even be used on pigmented areas , like the areola (nipple) area and on mucous areas (nose hair , ear hair ..etc )
A. Yes unlike laser you can be treated as the surrounding skin is unaffected
A. Yes unlike laser you can be treated as the surrounding skin is unaffected
A. In controlled clinical studies an average of 39% hair reduction has been achieved after the second treatment
A. Treated hair in the anagen phase should not re-grow following a single session. New growing hairs (previously not in anagen) will need to be retreated.
A. In general a course of 6 to 8 treatments is required to catch each hair in its anagen phase (growing phase ) After this course of treatments , you periodically you may require a top up treatment to treat semi dormant hairs which only come in to anagen on an annual basis .
A. Long-term results are dependent on genetics, hormones and medications which can induce hair growth.
A. Typically an interval of 4 weeks is recommended l. Your applisonix certified therapist can advise you personally more accurately on this following your initial consultation.
A. Applisonix technology has a number of advantages over laser technology because of the characteristics of ultrasound energy and the way it is applied by IMPRESA™. The efficacy is expected to be similar to that of light-based solutions, but unlike such solutions it is not limited to the combination of dark hair and light skin. Due to the selectiveness of the energy transfer, safety is expected to be significantly better and pain significantly lower.
A. Usually, 2-3 weeks are required for some of the hairs to grow back in the treated area, which makes it the common interval. It is recommended to use the interval time according to the treatment table. Shorter intervals may be used if desired.
