Low-fluence vs. standard fluence hair removal: A contralateral control non-inferiority study
INTRODUCTION Laser hair removal at lower fluences, delivered under certain conditions, may retain the efficacy of high-fluence lasers while improving tolerability. We performed a pilot study comparing the efficacy, safety and tolerability of laser hair removal using traditional settings compared to lower fluences, delivered from a larger handpiece and under vacuum. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fourte...
متن کاملTemporary hair removal by low fluence photoepilation: histological study on biopsies and cultured human hair follicles.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES We have recently shown that repeated low fluence photoepilation (LFP) with intense pulsed light (IPL) leads to effective hair removal, which is fully reversible. Contrary to permanent hair removal treatments, LFP does not induce severe damage to the hair follicle. The purpose of the current study is to investigate the impact of LFP on the structure and the physiology o...
متن کاملSafety and efficacy of low-fluence, high-repetition rate versus high-fluence, low-repetition rate 810-nm diode laser for permanent hair removal--a split-face comparison study.
BACKGROUND This study was designed to evaluate the hypothesis that low-level fluences done repetitively on a hair follicle will produce permanent hair removal with less discomfort and fewer side effects than a single high-fluence pulse. OBJECTIVE To compare the safety and efficacy of a low-fluence, high-repetition rate versus a high-fluence, low-repetition rate 810-nm diode laser for permanen...
متن کاملPermanent laser hair removal with low fluence high repetition rate versus high fluence low repetition rate 810 nm diode laser--a split leg comparison study.
High fluence diode lasers with contact cooling have emerged as the gold standard to remove unwanted hair. However, laser hair removal is associated with pain and side effects, especially when treating dark or tanned skin. A novel diode laser with low level fluence (5-10 J/cm2) with a high repetition rate at 10 Hz (Soprano XL in SHR mode, Alma Lasers, Chicago, IL) using multiple passes in consta...

The question of the appropriate extrapolation to low dose has long been a subject of controversy. A linear no-threshold model is favored by regulatory bodies as the basis of RBE assignments and estimates of radiation hazards to the general population. This model is largely supported by extensive application of the linear-quadratic survival formula "fitted" statistically to a wide variety of exp...
