Notes

Dark-skin variant using 980nm wavelength. Clinical devices for dark skin use 1064nm Nd:YAG. Same camera-guided SPOT targeting. No independent clinical studies.

Overview

Epilaser's dark-skin variant using a 980nm wavelength, a non-standard choice for hair removal.

How It Works

980nm wavelength sits between the standard diode (808-810nm) and Nd:YAG (1064nm). Less epidermal melanin absorption than 808nm, but clinical evidence for 980nm in hair removal is limited.

Typical Uses

  • Home hair removal for darker skin tones

Key Features

Uses non-standard 980nm wavelength (clinical standard for dark skin is 1064nm Nd:YAG). Camera-guided targeting. No independent studies.
