Permanent Hair Removal With Rio Laser Scanning
The Rio Salon Laser Scanning Hair Remover is designed for home use. You can now enjoy the benefits of permanent hair reduction without paying for expensive salon treatments.
The unit offers two treatment modes:
- one mode treats individual hairs
- the other mode scans larger areas treating up to 20 hairs in a few seconds.
How Does Rio Laser Scanning System Work?
Laser hair removal works by sending a laser beam to the hair follicle with enough energy to destroy the root, without it affecting the surrounding area. As with all laser systems, several treatments are required to completely clear an area of unwanted hair.
Lasers deliver an intense beam of light which are made up of a single wavelength or colour. Skin is essentially transparent to light in the wavelength range of 600 - 1100nm (nano meters), while melanin containing structures will absorb laser energy of this wavelength. It is therefore possible to target the hair follicle which has a concentration of melanin without affecting the surrounding area.
The light energy absorbed by the melanin pigment results in the rapid heating up of the hair follicle. This heat destroys the cells (papilla) responsible for hair growth. If adequate heating is achieved, then the follicle is permanently disabled resulting in a permanent reduction in hair growth.
Skin Types & Hair Types
Melanin in the epidermis also absorbs the energy and limits the depth of penetration of the laser light into the skin. Using a light wavelength of 808nm enables treatment of relatively dark skin as well as fair-skinned types. However, laser hair treatment is not suitable for Afro Caribbean or black skin complexions. Laser treatment is also ineffective in removal of white or grey hair
Advantages of Laser Treatment
There are many advantages including:
- permanent hair reduction
- no expensive consumable
- targets individual hairs AND larger areas too
- auto-timeouts.
Product Safety Features
The RIO comes with a security key to avoid misuse and has a safe 808nm diverging laser. It also has a "secure skin contact check" so that the laser cannot "fire" unless connected to your skin. It also has a hair targeting light and a digital power output control
How Long Does It Take?
Laser hair reduction is generally considered to be effective after 6 treatments. This varies from person to person and depends on the area you are treating, hair density, your hair's growth cycle and colour. Dark hair on fair skin responds to laser therapy best, but both dark and fair hair may take several treatments for long-term results. Some individuals require more, some fewer treatments to achieve satisfaction.
Initially with each treatment you will notice a gradual thinning/reduction of hair growth in the treated area. Women who suffer excessive hair growth due to male type hormones are likely to require long term maintenance.

So, in summary, works well, but takes a while to carry out the treatment. Why couldn't they have made the treatment head bigger? I suppose it would be an industrial and maybe dangerous product if they did!
