Introduction
When it comes to laser hair removal, selecting the correct wavelength is key to achieving the best results for your clients. The 755nm, 808nm, and 1064nm wavelengths are designed to address different skin tones, hair types, and treatment areas. Understanding the unique benefits of each can help you tailor your services for more effective and comfortable treatments.

Details

- 755nm is best for lighter skin tones (Fitzpatrick types I-III) and finer hair, often used on sensitive areas like the face and underarms.

- 808nm works well across a range of skin tones (I-IV) and is versatile enough for most body areas and hair types.
- 1064nm is the go-to for darker skin tones (IV-VI) and thicker hair, with deeper penetration that’s safer for those with more melanin. Choosing the right wavelength depends on your client’s skin and hair characteristics for optimal results.

Different Scopes of Application

- The 755nm wavelength can be more easily absorbed by the melanin in the hair follicles, so it is better for light skin and fine hair.
- The 808nm wavelength has a higher penetration depth and is suitable for most skin types, while also being able to treat coarse hair.
- The 1064nm wavelength can penetrate deeper into the skin, reducing damage to the epidermis, so it is safer for dark skin.

How to Choose

- Customers with fair skin and fine hair can choose the 755nm wavelength.
- For customers with normal skin and hair, the 808nm wavelength is usually the best choice and is suitable for most people and parts.
- Customers with dark skin or thicker hair should choose the 1064nm wavelength to reduce the risk of skin damage.

According to the customer's skin type and hair condition, choose the corresponding band to get better hair removal effect.
