LASER HAIR REMOVAL

Cynosure Apogee Elite: The Technology Behind Superior Laser Hair Removal

There’s a reason why Hollywood celebrities flock to top salons like LaserAway for their laser hair removal needs. With over 3 million treatments performed and known as America’s leader in laser hair removal, they rely on cutting-edge technology to deliver non-invasive, permanent results after just a few sessions.  

So, how do they achieve such incredible results? By using the best laser technology available. The Cynosure Apogee Elite is a prime example, offering top-tier precision and effectiveness. This is exactly why Elite Laser Aesthetics proudly uses the same Cynosure technology—making us Randburg’s highest-rated salon in 2024. Cynosure® has earned its reputation as an industry leader by creating world-class energy-based aesthetic and medical systems, trusted by professionals across the globe.

Unlike rival devices, the Apogee Elite contains not one, but two laser systems. And what’s more, the Apogee Elite combines a state-of-the-art device that uses cool air to further reduce any discomfort. There’s nothing the Apogee Elite can’t do. By providing two different wavelengths, the Apogee Elite laser can be used to treat even the most stubborn cases, including clients with darker skin and coarse hair. And it does so without causing undue pain or unpleasant skin changes and scarring.

Cynosure’s Apogee Elite laser ensures you’ll stay comfortable during your laser hair removal session. It does so through the body’s natural cooling process in conjunction with a specifically engineered external cooling system. The Zimmer Cryo 6 cooling system works together with the laser to minimize client discomfort during treatment.

Understanding the Science of Cynosure’s Apogee Elite Laser

Laser hair removal seems like magic, but the science behind it is simple. All laser hair removal technology uses laser light pulses that selectively destroy hair follicles by targeting the melanin in them. The follicle’s pigment absorbs the laser’s light pulse, damaging the follicle enough to significantly slow down hair regrowth.

Cynosure’s Apogee Elite contains two laser systems – 755 nm Alexandrite laser and a high-powered 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser – which allows it to effectively target different types and colors of hair and skin. The classic 755 nm wavelength has high melanin absorption characteristics and proven long-term results for hair reduction. Indeed, it can permanently reduce hair by an average of 79% after just three treatments. Combined with the Nd:YAG laser, it allows the Apogee Elite to safely and effectively treat clients with darker skin. It’s especially good for eradicating excessive hair growth in the facial, armpit, and bikini regions.

Is Cynosure Apogee Elite Laser the Right Solution for You?

Yes! Our advanced laser hair removal technologies work on nearly all skin types and tones. The Apogee Elite’s dual-wavelength system allows it to safely and effectively treat even the darkest skin tones. And if you have a combination of dark skin and hair, don’t despair the Apogee Elite’s Nd:Yag laser can eliminate unwanted hair on clients with both dark skin and hair. This is because the Nd:Yag laser has a longer wavelength, and is highly sensitive to all colors and melanin, meaning it can more precisely penetrate hair follicles without damaging surrounding tissue. The Cynosure Apogee Elite’s ability to treat a wide range of skin types and hair colors makes it the gold standard for laser hair removal. What’s more, the Zimmer Cooler technology ensures you’ll be comfortable during your laser hair removal session. And you’ll likely be thrilled with the results too: the Apogee Elite is so effective that it permanently reduces hair by an average of 79% after only three treatments. Even better, you can resume your regular activities immediately following treatment.
