Features
A function that automatically detects skin tone and adjusts the light intensity accordingly. It prevents excessive light exposure for people with darker skin tones and ensures effective treatment for those with lighter skin tones. Allows anyone to easily perform hair removal safely.
The device features a smart skin sensor that only allows the device to flash with full skin contact, enhancing safety and preventing unintended flashes. This ensures that the device is only used on compatible skin tones.
A function equipped with multiple attachment heads for different body areas. You can use dedicated heads tailored to sensitive areas like the face or wide areas like the legs. Allows efficient and careful treatment according to the area.
The product does not come with multiple attachment heads for different body areas. This limits the ability to customize treatments for sensitive areas like the face or wide areas like the legs, potentially affecting treatment precision.
A function that cools the skin surface during or after light irradiation. It alleviates heat and pain during hair removal and prevents skin irritation. Allows for a more comfortable treatment experience.
The device does not have a cooling function to alleviate heat and pain during hair removal. This may lead to discomfort or skin irritation during use, especially at higher intensity levels or during longer sessions.
A function that allows continuous light irradiation by sliding the device over the skin. You can efficiently treat wide areas like the legs or arms. Significantly reduces treatment time.
The device does not support continuous irradiation, which requires manual operation for each flash. This can make treating large areas like the legs or arms more time-consuming and less efficient compared to devices with continuous mode.
A function that allows adjusting the light intensity in multiple levels. You can start with a low level and gradually increase it while observing your skin condition. Allows beginners to use it with peace of mind.
There is no explicit mention of adjustable light intensity levels. This limits the user's ability to customize the treatment based on their skin sensitivity and hair type, potentially leading to discomfort or ineffective results.
A function that prevents light irradiation unless the irradiation port is in full contact with the skin. Prevents accidental light exposure to the eyes and unintended irradiation. Makes hair removal safer.
The device includes a safety sensor that prevents light irradiation unless the device is in full contact with the skin. This prevents accidental light exposure to the eyes and unintended irradiation, making hair removal safer and more controlled.
