Understanding these differences will solve common concerns about treatment results, safety, and operational efficiency.
Understanding Laser Hair Removal Machine Technology

Treatment
Are the results permanent?
Laser acne treatments can provide long-lasting results, but acne may reoccur due to factors such as hormonal changes, diet, or stress. Maintenance treatments may be recommended to keep your skin clear and acne-free.
How long does each session take?
A typical acne removal session lasts between 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area. You can often fit a session into your lunch break.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies depending on the severity of your acne. Typically, patients require between 3 to 6 sessions spaced a few weeks apart to see significant improvements. Your practitioner will assess your skin and recommend a personalized treatment plan.
Customization
Do you support small-batch custom production?
Yes, we support small-batch custom production to meet the needs of startups and new markets. This allows clients to test market reactions with reduced risks.
Are the products subjected to quality testing?
All products undergo rigorous quality testing before leaving the factory, including durability, safety, and performance tests. We also provide international certifications such as CE, FDA, and ISO to ensure products meet global market standards.
