Buying a diode laser - the heart of modern hair removal in beauty salons

A high-quality diode laser is the basis for professional, reliable and economically successful hair removal. While IPL devices often reach their limits, diode lasers offer significantly more precision, penetration depth and skin safety - especially in combination with modern cooling technology and AI-controlled energy adjustment.

Alix Lasers® is one of the pioneers in the field of AI-based diode laser systems with 3- or 4-wavelength technology and offers individual solutions for beauty salons, dermatologists and aesthetic institutes.

What is a diode laser - and how does the treatment work?

A diode laser for hair removal uses highly concentrated, focused light that acts specifically on the melanin in the hair follicle. Heat is generated through absorption, which thermally destroys the hair root - without damaging the surrounding tissue.

The procedure is considered to be particularly gentle, effective and long-lasting, as it works with a clearly defined wavelength (e.g. 808 nm) - in contrast to the broadband light used in IPL systems.

Advantages of diode lasers compared to other technologies

A professional diode laser offers decisive advantages over IPL, alexandrite and ND:YAG systems:

• Targeted effect on deep-seated hair follicles

• Faster results with fewer sessions

• Significantly less pain due to ICE cooling

• Gentle on the skin, even with dark skin types (type IV-VI)

• Lower risk of pigment shifts & side effects

Thanks to the AI modules from Alix Lasers®, the power automatically adapts to the skin type, area and hair density. This not only increases safety - it also saves time and reduces operating errors.

Wavelengths explained - Why 4 wavelengths make sense

Not all diode lasers are the same. Alix Lasers® relies on individually combinable systems with up to four wavelengths:

• 755 nm - for light, fine hair and sensitive skin

• 808 nm - all-round wavelength for most skin and hair types

• 940 nm - deep penetration, ideal for dense, deep follicles

• 1064 nm - particularly gentle on dark skin

By combining several wavelengths in one device, you achieve maximum treatment versatility and can treat almost every client individually - all year round, even in summer.

Typical areas of application in everyday studio life

A diode laser is used in various zones:

• Face (upper lip, chin, cheeks, neck)

• Armpits, arms, hands

• Chest, stomach, back

• Bikini line, intimate area, buttock crease

• Legs, feet

Thanks to the short pulse duration and continuous energy delivery, the sessions are particularly efficient - often less than 10 minutes per area.

What makes the diode lasers from Alix Lasers® special?

• AI-controlled skin type detection for maximum safety

• Touch screen with preconfigured treatment modes

• ICE cooling down to -26 °C for skin-friendly use

• 4-wavelength technology for flexible treatment options

• High-quality laser modules with a service life of over 20 million pulses

Particularly noteworthy: Alix Lasers® is the first provider in the world to develop a fully automated AI robot for laser hair removal - launch 2025.

Who is a diode laser suitable for?

• Beauty salons that want to offer professional hair removal

• Beginners who want to start with little risk

• Aesthetic institutes that focus on technology and optimizing results

• Studios with IPL experience that want to take the next step

How much does a diode laser cost?

The price range depends on performance, technology and equipment:

• Entry-level models from approx. 12,000 €

• High-end devices with 4 wavelengths + AI: € 25,000-40,000

• Premium systems (automated, robotics): from €50,000

All systems are CE-certified (Class IIB), low-maintenance and designed for high studio frequencies.

FAQ: Frequently asked questions about buying a diode laser

Which is better - diode laser or IPL?

A diode laser is much more precise, less painful and more effective - especially for thicker hair, darker skin or sensitive areas.

How many sessions are necessary with a diode laser?

Depending on the body region and hair structure, 6-10 sessions are sufficient for lasting results.

Is a diode laser painful?

Thanks to ICE cooling and short pulses, treatment with high-quality diode lasers is virtually painless - even in the genital area.

Which skin types can be treated with a diode laser?

With Alix Lasers® devices, all skin types from type I to VI - even tanned skin in summer.
