When it comes to hair removal, many beauty salon owners often struggle with whether it is better to introduce a pulsed light device or an 808 laser hair removal device? What are the differences between them, and how should you choose according to your own store? What is the fundamental difference between these two instruments? Today I will tell you the difference between these two instruments.

Which is better, ipl hair removal device or 808 laser hair removal device?

Today, I will explain to you the following aspects:

01.System difference:

The 808 hair removal system is different from the pulsed light system, the power supply system is different, and the handpiece structure is also different.

However, the 808 hair removal instrument must have a compressor refrigeration system, otherwise the heat dissipation of the laser cannot keep up.

02.Output wavelength difference:

Pulse light hair removal: The output of the hand tool is strong light with a wavelength of 610nm-1200nm.

808 hair removal: The output of the hand tool is a laser with a single wavelength of 808nm.

03.Spot difference:

Pulsed light hair removal: The general light spot of pulsed light hand tools is generally 10mm*50mm, 8mm*40mm;

808 hair removal: laser hair removal 808 hand tools generally have: 12mm*12mm;

Due to the different structural principles of the pulsed light handpiece and the 808 laser handpiece, the light spots of the two devices are very different.

04.Energy density difference:

Since the light spot is different, the output energy density is also different.

Pulsed light hair removal: energy density can be 2J/cm²-50J/cm²

808 hair removal: energy density can be 5J/cm²-100J/cm²

Misunderstanding: Of course, in the process of treatment, the more energy the better

05.Difference in lifespan: Pulsed light hair removal: The xenon lamp in the pulsed light hand tool is a consumable. After a certain number of hairs is used, the energy attenuates seriously. To achieve the desired treatment effect, the xenon lamp must be replaced. 808 hair removal: 808 laser hand tools have almost no limit on the number of hairs according to normal theory, and there are no consumables, so the 808 semiconductor laser hair removal equipment lasts longer.

To sum up the above points: 808 laser instruments are rated +1 point from the hair removal effect alone; pulsed light instruments +1 point in terms of functional diversity; pulsed light instruments +1 points in terms of price; Instrument +1 point; in general, the two instruments have their own advantages and disadvantages. In the final analysis, which instrument to introduce in the store depends on your budget and project plan.
