The Elite iQ Advantage - Superior Laser Hair Removal Technology
Not all laser hair removal systems are created equal. Vignieri Aesthetics invests exclusively in the Cynosure Elite iQ—the most advanced, versatile, and effective laser hair removal platform available today.
What Makes Elite iQ the Gold Standard:
Dual-Wavelength Technology
Elite iQ uniquely combines TWO powerful laser wavelengths in one system:
755nm Alexandrite Wavelength
- Ideal for lighter skin tones (Fitzpatrick I-III)
- Targets fine to medium hair with precision
- Fastest treatment times for large areas
- Exceptional results on facial hair
1064nm Nd:YAG Wavelength
- Safe for darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick IV-VI)
- Penetrates deeper for coarse, stubborn hair
- Minimal melanin absorption (prevents hyperpigmentation)
- Perfect for all ethnicities and skin types
Why Dual Wavelengths Matter:
This technology allows us to customize every treatment to YOUR unique skin tone and hair type. Whether you have fair skin with blonde hair or deep skin with coarse dark hair, Elite iQ delivers optimal, safe results.
Advanced Comfort Features:
Skintel® Melanin Reader
Built-in technology measures your skin’s melanin levels in real-time, automatically adjusting laser settings for maximum safety and efficacy. This prevents burns, hyperpigmentation, and ensures consistent results.
Zimmer Cryo Cooling System
Integrated cooling chills skin before, during, and after each laser pulse, dramatically reducing discomfort. Most clients describe sensation as quick rubber band snap followed by cooling relief—far more comfortable than waxing!
Rapid Treatment Speed
Large spot sizes and high repetition rate mean faster sessions:
- Upper lip: 5-10 minutes
- Underarms: 10-15 minutes
- Brazilian: 15-20 minutes
- Full legs: 45-60 minutes
FDA-Cleared Safety
Elite iQ is FDA-cleared for permanent hair reduction on all body areas and all skin types. Our medical-grade equipment ensures clinical standards, not day spa guesswork.
Proven Results:
Clinical studies demonstrate Elite iQ achieves:
- 80-95% permanent hair reduction after complete series
- Dramatic reduction visible after just 2-3 treatments
- Long-lasting results that improve over time
- Minimal side effects with proper protocols
Why We Chose Elite iQ:
At Vignieri Aesthetics, we researched every laser hair removal system available. Elite iQ surpassed all competitors in safety, efficacy, versatility, and client comfort. We invest in the best technology because you deserve the best results.
Common Questions - Laser Hair Removal Bronx
Is laser hair removal truly permanent?
YES—laser hair removal provides permanent hair reduction (80-95% of hair gone forever). FDA terminology is “permanent reduction” rather than “permanent removal” because:
- Some follicles may be dormant during treatment (missed)
- Hormonal changes can activate new follicles later
- Fine vellus hair may remain (usually invisible)
After complete series, most clients achieve hair-free results lasting decades or permanently. Occasional touch-ups maintain perfection if desired.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Most clients describe sensation as quick rubber band snap followed by cooling relief—far more tolerable than waxing! Our Elite iQ system features:
- Integrated Zimmer cryo cooling (chills skin during pulses)
- Adjustable energy settings (customized to your comfort)
- Speed (faster treatment = less time feeling anything)
Pain tolerance varies by:
- Treatment area (bony areas like shin more sensitive than fleshy areas like thigh)
- Individual pain threshold
- Hair density (more hair = more sensation initially, but decreases each session as hair reduces)
Comparison:
- Waxing: Prolonged ripping pain
- Laser: Quick snap per pulse with cooling
- Verdict: Laser is more comfortable for most clients
Is laser safe for dark skin?
YES! Our Elite iQ system features 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength specifically designed for darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick IV-VI). This longer wavelength:
- Bypasses melanin in skin
- Targets melanin in hair follicle
- Prevents burns and hyperpigmentation
- Delivers safe, effective results
Additionally, Skintel melanin reader automatically measures your skin tone and adjusts settings in real-time for maximum safety.
We successfully treat clients of all ethnicities:
- African American
- Hispanic/Latinx
- South Asian
- Middle Eastern
- Mediterranean
- Anyone with melanin-rich skin
How many sessions will I need?
Typical series: 6-8 treatments spaced 4-8 weeks apart.
Why multiple sessions? Hair grows in cycles:
- Anagen (growth phase) – Laser works ONLY on this phase
- Catagen (transition phase) – Laser ineffective
- Telogen (resting phase) – Laser ineffective
Only 20-30% of hair is in anagen phase at any time. Multiple treatments ensure we target all hair as it cycles into growth phase.
Factors affecting session count:
- Hair color (dark hair responds faster than light)
- Hair thickness (coarse needs more sessions than fine)
- Treatment area (face needs more than legs typically)
- Hormonal factors (PCOS may need maintenance)
- Individual response (genetics vary)
