Hair grows in stages and it’s only during its growth cycle, when the hair is still in its follicle, that the removal process is most effective. The Venus Versa™ Hair Removal applicator combines a high level of light energy (Intense Pulsed Light technology) with maximum heat distribution to multiple hair follicles at a time. The energy penetrates into the deeper layers of the skin, targeting the pigment in the follicle beneath the skin’s surface, but without damaging any of the surrounding tissue. Destroying the underlying follicle gets rid of the existing hair but also inhibits future hair growth in that area. The SmartPulse™ technology ensures safe and consistent heat distribution, while the real-time cooling system keeps skin protected.
