“…With respect to diode lasers in particular, the efficacy of the 810 nm wavelength has been well accepted 13‐15 . Numerous studies have been conducted comparing the efficacy of traditional 755 nm alexandrite laser with the new 755 nm diode showing diode to be more superior in terms of efficacy 16,17 and fewer still on the 1064 nm diode 18 …”

Background Laser hair reduction is one of the most common laser procedures in dermatology. Laser systems available are Ruby at 694 nm, Alexandrite (755 nm), Diode (810nm), and Nd:YAG (1064 nm). Recently, devices presenting a combination of wavelengths have shown to produce high effective hair reduction with no related risks. This study was conducted with the Soprano Ice Platinum (Alma Lasers, GMBH, Germany) that emits a combination of three wavelengths at 755, 810, and 1064 nm in a single pulse. Aims To establish the efficacy and safety of novel triple wavelength laser hair reduction technology in skin types IV to V. Patients and Methods This was an investigator initiated, single‐center, prospective clinical study conducted between December 2017 and June 2019 with a total of 25 patients (23 female and two male) above 18 years with skin types IV and V, areas included are face, beard, neck, chest, and others. Results Hair reduction was assessed using the physician GAIS (global esthetic improvement scale) score: no results 0% reduction, poor 0%‐25% reduction, average 25%‐50%, good 50%‐75%, and excellent 75%‐100%. All 25 patients (mean age 28 years, range 18‐52 y/o) completed all six sessions of the study. Conclusion Objective clinical assessment of hair reduction using the physician GAIS score in 90 anatomical sites scores an excellent reduction in 95.5% areas and good reduction in 80% areas. This current study shows that a synergistic combination of three diode laser wavelengths used for hair removal (755, 810, 1064 nm) is effective and safe to use in subjects skin types IV and V for facial and body hair.

“…There are still up to date studies that present results after short periods of 3 months or 6 months such as studies intended to compare different treatment conditions and treatment parameters. However, hair removal evidence which includes long‐term follow‐up period of 12 months is considered more convincing as it indicates long‐term results sustainability.…”

“…A wide variety of studies were conducted and published over the last twenty years, evaluating long‐pulse 810 nm diode lasers showing long‐term hair removal results with minimal transient side effects. More recent articles focused on studies comparing adjustable treatment parameters such as fluence, repetition rate, number of passes, movement modes or spot size in order to optimize results and reduce treatment discomfort as well as different skin conditions …”

Summary Introduction Laser hair removal is a common light‐based aesthetic procedure. Diode lasers and specifically the long‐pulse diode laser 810 nm are the most popular preference for hair removal due to the deep penetration and targeting of the hair follicle. In a recently published article, we presented our hair removal clinical evaluation results using an 810 nm scanning diode laser. Three‐ and six‐month follow‐up hair counts demonstrated an average hair reduction of about 70%. Objective In the current article, we demonstrate long‐term follow‐up hair removal results of 1 year after last treatment. Methods Among 11 out of 14 female patients who received three axillary hair removal treatments, 4‐6 weeks apart, returned to the 1‐year follow‐up visit. Treatment area photographs and hair count of 1‐year follow‐up visit were compared to baseline. Results The average hair count reduction of about 70% at 1 year after the last treatment was maintained. Conclusions The examined 810 nm diode laser has been proven to be a safe and effective for hair removal. Results sustain not only for 3 or 6 months but also for 1 year after last treatment.

“…The diode laser system (800-1000 nm) could be used safely in individuals with dark skin owing to its longer wavelength, active cooling and longer pulse widths. It was also being better tolerated by individuals with darker skin types (V-VI) in comparison to ruby laser [13][14][15][16][17].…”

Background: Hair forms an important appendage of the body playing a significant role in an individual’s psychosocial personality. Hirsutism is the presence of terminal hair at androgen-dependent sites in a female. Hypertrichosis is excessive hair growth all over the body in a non-androgen dependent manner. Increased terminal facial hair growth leads to cosmetic embarrassment, psychological distress and a low self-esteem in women. Currently, the most effective and advanced procedure for unwanted hair removal is laser epilation. Diode laser (800-855nm) are the most frequently used for this purpose and can be used in two different modes FDP (Fast delivery pulse) and DP (delivery pulse). With this study we aim to compare the efficacy of these two modes of diode laser for facial hair reduction. Objectives: 1.To study the clinical presentation of unwanted facial hair in patients visiting the department. 2. To study the trichoscopic features of facial hair in patients. 3.To study the correlation between the endocrinal abnormalities and clinical presentation in patients with increased facial hair. 4. To study the effectiveness of two different modes of diode laser on facial hair. Methods: It is a prospective randomized control study with a total of 20 female patients in the age group of 18-50 years with complaints of unwanted facial hair. VIKINI Diode laser of wavelength 808nm will be used for treatment. Post randomization the participants will be divided into two groups, one of them will be treated with FDP (Fast delivery pulse) mode and the other with DP (delivery pulse) mode. A total of six sittings will be performed at an interval of 4 weeks. Baseline trichoscopy findings as well as trichoscopy at follow up visits at one, three and six months will be recorded. Post procedure patient satisfaction and pain assessment will be also be recorded. Expected Results: The result would be undertaken in SPSS software. This study will help in understanding which technique is superior for laser hair reduction for facial hair. Conclusion: The conclusion will be based on findings for study protocol.
