HOW DOES SOPRANO TITANIUM WORK?
Soprano Titanium utilizes a laser that targets and destroys unwanted hair follicles. This laser emits a beam of light that is absorbed by the melanin, or pigment, in the hair. Once absorbed, the heat from the laser damages the hair follicle, impairing future growth. Over time, the damaged follicles will produce less and less hair, resulting in a permanent hair reduction of 90% or more.
The Soprano Titanium is unique because it uses a sweeping motion called Super Hair Removal (SHR™), allowing for more even coverage and significantly faster treatment times than other lasers. SHR™ is the only clinically proven method of laser hair reduction that is virtually painless and is considered the safest method for all skin types, including dark and tanned skin.
HOW IS SOPRANO TITANIUM DIFFERENT THAN OTHER LASER HAIR REDUCTION LASERS?
Traditional laser hair reduction methods are very time-consuming. They generally pulse a single beam of light repeatedly to target small clusters of hair follicles. While effective, this approach can be painful and monotonous and require multiple sessions to see results. On the other hand, the Soprano Titanium uses the SHR™ sweeping motion that allows your Skin Artisans provider to keep the handpiece in constant motion for more even coverage of larger surface areas and extremely fast treatment times. In addition, the Integrated Cooling Element (ICE™) cooling technology works by cooling the skin’s surface, preventing heat from the laser from damaging the surrounding skin. This makes treatments with Soprano Titanium more comfortable and safe, even in sensitive areas like the face and bikini area. These unique features of the Soprano Titanium make it safe for all skin types, even darker-colored and tanned skin.
WHAT DOES SOPRANO TITANIUM TREAT?
Soprano Titanium can permanently reduce unwanted hair growth virtually anywhere on the body, including the upper lip, chin, sideburns, neck, back, underarms, arms, bikini area, legs, and more!
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR SOPRANO TITANIUM LASER HAIR REDUCTION?
Soprano Titanium is considered one of the safest and most effective laser hair reduction devices available today. It is also appropriate for the widest range of skin colors and hair pigments due to the device’s multiple wavelengths, customizable settings, in-motion treatment action, and contact cooling technology. It is considered safe for virtually all skin tones and hair types, even dark skin colors and tanned skin.
Although many patients will see a reduction in lighter hair colors, grey and blonde hair are less responsive due to their lack of pigment. During your complimentary consultation, your Skin Artisans provider will thoroughly assess your hair color, skin type, and other factors to determine whether or not Soprano Titanium can effectively treat your hair. This personalized approach ensures that you receive the most effective and safe treatment for your unique needs.
WHAT DOES SOPRANO TITANIUM FEEL LIKE?
Permanently reducing unwanted hair with Soprano Titanium is a painless experience. Traditional laser hair reduction treatments can be uncomfortable, with many people describing the sensation as a pinch or like being snapped by a rubber band. However, because of Soprano Titanium’s ICE™ cooling system, skin is kept cool and comfortable during treatment. As the SHR™ motion heats pigmented hair follicles, the ICE™ technology simultaneously cools the skin, making the treatment highly tolerable in even the most sensitive areas like the bikini region.
IS THERE SPECIFIC BEFORE AND AFTERCARE WITH SOPRANO TITANIUM?
Your Skin Artisans providerSoprano Titanium
During your initial consultation, your Skin Artisans provider will discuss certain medications and skin care products that may be contraindicated to your treatment, such as photosensitizing antibiotics and topical retinol.
After your Soprano Titanium treatment, you must wear a physical SPF 30 or higher on any exposed treatment areas for the entirety of your treatment course. You should also avoid heated treatments, saunas, and direct sunlight for at least ten days.
WHEN DO I SEE RESULTS WITH SOPRANO TITANIUM LASER HAIR REDUCTION?
After your Soprano Titanium treatment, your skin may be slightly red and sensitive. Keep the area cool and protect it from direct sunlight to avoid complications such as hyperpigmentation. Over the next two weeks, your next active growth cycle will begin to push out the treated and destroyed hair follicles. You may see some of this, but generally, the shedding process happens naturally as we shower and shave. With each passing treatment, you’ll notice less and less hair regrowth until the area is completely smooth and hair-free!
Laser hair reduction is only effective on hair follicles in their active growth cycle at the time of treatment. This percentage will vary on different areas of the body, but in general, expect to see about a 20% reduction in regrowth after each appointment. Multiple treatments are needed to experience a total and permanent hair reduction of 90% or more. Skin Artisans providers recommend a series of 6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart. After achieving your desired clearance, anticipate having 1-2 maintenance treatments each year to maintain your results and enjoy the long-term benefits of smooth skin all year round!
