Usage Recommendations


Choosing the right system is the most important step in the entire process of laser epilation.  The following guide will help you match the correct system with the general criteria necessary for successful usage.

What Is Your Skill Level?

If you are new to laser epilation it is advisable that you consider the LD2K and LD4K line first.  These systems are very easy to operate and give excellent results.  You will only need to set the power output at a level which is comfortable and effective. 

Should you discover in the future that your preference is for an alternate system, we will gladly exchange your previous machine for a new one.  We offer a lifetime trade-in for any system in our line.  At Biotechnique Avance, we want to match each and every customer with the perfect system for their individual requirements.

Speed of Treatment

You will want to go with a larger beam size combined with greater energy density (fluence) if you are working on large areas to increase efficiency.  The LD40K and LD60K systems are perfectly suited for rapid and efficient laser epilation and can clear a woman's legs or a man's back in just about 30 to 60 minutes.

The LD2K and LD4K require a greater investment of time into the treatment to clear large areas, and are best suited for limited areas such as the bikini-line or face.

How Much Power Do You Need?

The general rule of thumb is 30-120 total joules per cm2 for a QCW Pulse Diode Laser.  Any more power may burn your skin (while doing little 'additional damage' to the follicle). 

How Fast Do These Systems Clear Large Areas?

For the sake of general comparison, we will look at a 120 square inch (moderately covered) treatment area.  This is the equivalent of the average man's chest and abdomen, or woman's upper and lower legs.

  • LD2K:  240 minutes of treatment

  • LD40K:  30 minutes of treatment

  • LD60K:  20 minutes of treatment

  • LD120K: 10 minutes of treatment

  • IPL320: 12 minutes of treatment

  • IPL600: 7 minutes of treatment

Based upon these general characteristics it is our recommendation that the LD2K be used for limited facial areas, underarms, bikini line etc.

  • The LD20K is best suited for larger (but also limited) areas.

  • The LD40K is ideal for large (unlimited) areas such as chest, back, legs etc.

  • The LD120K or LD120K is best used by professionals who treat multiple clients per day.

  • The IPL 320 and 600 are best for large areas and professional use.
