Tri-wavelength diode laser hair removal system

Description

PermaICE Lite (Was Eos Ice) is a professional triband (triple-wavelength) diode laser hair removal system derived from the EOS ICE platform. It combines three effective hair-removal wavelengths (755 nm, 808 nm and 1064 nm) into a single, ultralight handpiece weighing approximately 375 g. The tri-cluster diode technology delivers all three wavelengths simultaneously to target different anatomical structures of the hair follicle (bulge, bulb and papilla) for efficient, long-lasting hair reduction on a wide range of skin and hair types. The system features a large 25 × 15 mm treatment spot and enhanced contact cooling, enabling fast coverage of large areas with high patient comfort. PermaICE Lite is intended for use by trained professionals in aesthetic clinics, salons and medical-aesthetic practices for high-throughput permanent hair reduction treatments.

Bnefits

  • Tri-wavelength diode technology (755 nm, 808 nm and 1064 nm) in a single handpiece, extending suitability across a wide range of skin phototypes and hair types.
  • Tri-clustered diode design delivers three wavelengths simultaneously, targeting the bulge, bulb and papilla of the hair follicle for thorough follicular damage and long-term hair reduction.
  • Ultralight handpiece (approximately 375 g) reduces operator fatigue during long treatment sessions and improves ergonomics.
  • Large treatment head (typically 25 mm × 15 mm) allows faster coverage of large treatment areas such as legs, back and chest.
  • Enhanced contact cooling at the treatment window improves patient comfort and epidermal protection, allowing higher fluences with reduced risk of burns.
  • Non-invasive, non-ablative procedure with minimal downtime, suitable for busy aesthetic practices.
  • Based on the established EOS-ICE tri-wavelength diode platform, providing proven performance and reliability in permanent hair reduction.
  • Available with finance options and a one-year warranty from certain distributors, supporting cost-effective clinic adoption.

Indications

  • Permanent reduction of unwanted hair on the face and body in professional aesthetic and medical-aesthetic settings.
  • Treatment of large and small body areas including legs, arms, underarms, back, chest, bikini line and other suitable zones.
  • Use on a broad range of skin phototypes (typically Fitzpatrick I–V and, with appropriate parameters, VI) when operated by trained professionals using correct protocols.
  • Clinics seeking a high-performance, multi-wavelength diode system for rapid, comfortable laser hair removal.

Composition

  • Tri-wavelength diode laser stack producing 755 nm (Alexandrite-like), 808 nm (standard diode) and 1064 nm (Nd:YAG-like) wavelengths.
  • Semiconductor diode modules arranged in a tri-cluster configuration within the handpiece to emit combined wavelengths.
  • Optical system integrated into the handpiece delivering an approximate 25 × 15 mm treatment spot.
  • Integrated contact cooling technology (thermoelectric / electronic refrigeration and coolant circulation) within the handpiece and system.
  • Console housing power supply, control electronics, refrigeration and coolant systems, user interface and safety circuitry.

Formulation

  • Non-ablative, high-power diode laser based on selective photothermolysis of hair follicles.
  • Simultaneous emission of 755 nm, 808 nm and 1064 nm wavelengths through a single applicator to optimise absorption by melanin at varying depths.
  • High repetition rates and scanning capability (depending on software mode) for rapid in-motion or stamp-mode hair removal.
  • Advanced contact cooling at the sapphire/optic tip to maintain epidermal safety and patient comfort during treatment.

Packaging

  • Trolley-mounted diode laser console with integrated touchscreen control panel and emergency stop.
  • One ultralight triband diode handpiece (approximately 375 g) with 25 × 15 mm treatment window and integrated cooling.
  • Accessories typically include mains cable, footswitch, operator and patient protective eyewear, and standard consumables as provided by the distributor.
  • Supplied with user manual, quick-start guide, basic maintenance instructions and a distributor-backed warranty (commonly 1 year).

Usage

  • PermaICE Lite must only be operated by trained laser practitioners or healthcare professionals familiar with laser safety, hair removal protocols and applicable regulations.
  • Before treatment, complete a full consultation including medical history, medication review, Fitzpatrick skin type assessment, hair characteristics assessment and a documented consent process.
  • Perform a test patch with conservative settings on each new patient or where parameter changes are significant; review the skin response before full treatment.
  • Prepare the treatment area by cleansing the skin and shaving visible hair; ensure the skin is dry and free from cosmetics, deodorants, oils, self-tan or irritant products.
  • Select appropriate parameters (fluence, pulse duration, repetition rate and cooling level) according to the manufacturer’s guidelines, training material and clinic protocols, taking into account skin phototype, hair colour, thickness and anatomical location.
  • Apply contact gel if recommended by the protocol, then position the cooled treatment window in full contact with the skin, maintaining gentle pressure.
  • Deliver laser energy in overlapping passes (in-motion or stamping technique as appropriate), continuously monitoring patient feedback and skin reaction, and adjusting settings if necessary to maintain safety and comfort.
  • Use approved laser protective eyewear for both operator and patient at all times while the laser is on standby or firing.
  • After treatment, cool the skin if required and apply a suitable soothing product; instruct the patient to avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, very hot baths, saunas, vigorous exercise and exfoliation on the treated area for the period specified in clinic aftercare protocols.
  • Schedule subsequent sessions based on hair growth cycles for the body area treated (typically every 4–8 weeks) until the desired degree of hair reduction is achieved.
  • Follow the maintenance schedule recommended by the supplier, including filter checks, cooling system checks and software/firmware updates, and arrange professional servicing when due.

Contraindications

  • Active skin infections, inflammation, open wounds, eczema or psoriasis in the proposed treatment area.
  • History of photosensitivity disorders or current use of photosensitising medications that contraindicate laser exposure.
  • Recent significant sun exposure, sunburn, use of tanning beds or self-tanning products on the treatment area that increases burn and pigment-change risk.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding, where many clinics avoid elective laser hair removal for precautionary reasons.
  • History of keloid or hypertrophic scarring or serious wound-healing disorders in the proposed treatment area, unless specifically cleared by a medical professional.
  • Presence of suspicious pigmented lesions, skin cancers or pre-cancerous lesions in the treatment field.
  • Metal implants, tattoos or permanent makeup within or close to the treatment area if they cannot be effectively shielded or excluded from treatment.
  • Patients with unrealistic expectations or who are unable or unwilling to follow pre- and post-treatment instructions.

Adverse Effects

  • Transient erythema (redness), perifollicular oedema and a sensation of warmth or mild sunburn in the treated area, commonly resolving within hours to a few days.
  • Temporary swelling, mild discomfort or tenderness, usually self-limiting and manageable with cooling and aftercare products.
  • Occasional blistering or superficial burns if parameters are incorrectly selected, contact is inadequate or pre-/post-care instructions are not followed.
  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation, particularly in darker skin types or where sun exposure occurs too soon after treatment.
  • Very rare risk of scarring with significant thermal injury.
  • Folliculitis-like reactions or transient acne flare in susceptible individuals.
  • Risk of ocular injury if appropriate laser safety eyewear is not worn correctly by all persons in the treatment room.

Storage Conditions

  • Install and operate the system in a clean, dry, temperature-controlled clinical environment within the operating limits specified by the manufacturer.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation and clearance around the console to maintain effective cooling; keep vents free from dust and obstruction.
  • Avoid exposure to excessive humidity, vibration, dust or corrosive atmospheres that could damage optical or electronic components.
  • Switch off and disconnect the mains power before cleaning the exterior surfaces or performing basic maintenance tasks.
  • Store the handpiece in its designated holder when not in use, avoiding kinks, sharp bends or tension on the fibre or cable.
  • If the device must be transported, follow the manufacturer’s guidance for safe packing and handling to prevent shock or impact damage.

Duration

Individual session duration depends on the size of the area treated (for example, a small area such as the upper lip may take a few minutes, while full legs or back may take 20\u201340 minutes). A full course typically consists of multiple sessions (commonly 6\u20138 or more) spaced according to hair growth cycles to achieve long-lasting hair reduction.

Onset

Some reduction in hair density and delayed regrowth may be observed after the first few sessions, with progressive improvement over the full course of treatments. Optimal, long-lasting reduction is usually seen after completing the recommended treatment series, with results maintained by occasional top-up sessions as required.
