FAQ - As a Laser Hair Removal Machine how Does the Shinepil Work

The Shinepil is a product in the testing phase that uses laser hair removal technology to remove leg hair. It is claimed as a pain free alternative to older methods.

The Theory behind Laser Hair Removal

Using laser energy will produce long-term leg hair reduction. Laser energy produces heat in the hair that in turn is transferred to the hair follicle. This heat within the follicle causes inflammation that sends a signal for that follicle to go into a resting growth phase.

What Is Laser Energy?

Lasers are devices that produce light of a single colour or wavelength. In dermatology, theses lasers produce pulses of high energy light that is then absorbed by the target area. In the case of the Shinepil the target is the melanin pigment contained within the hair shaft.

The New Technology of the Shinepil

The tough part behind hair removal is targeting the hair shaft without damaging the melanin pigment in the surface of the skin. Thus the laser light has to be on long enough to heat the hair, but at the same time not long enough to harm the skin surrounding the hair causing damage. The Shinepil's portable nature and use at home allows the user to make sure that the target area only get the right amount of time under the laser light.

The Testing Phase

The Shinepil is not at this moment on sale to the public and is going through a vigorous testing phase ensuring this unique leg hair removal product produces the best results of their patented technology. The theory behind the Shinepil has been used for he last 15 years but this is the first time that this type of system has been packaged as an at home easy to use package.

The Conclusion

Laser hair removal is an easy way to remove leg hair and will hopefully over time as this technology reaches a wider audience help the busy woman save time when considering leg hair removal.
