La melanina contenuta nel follicolo assorbe 

l’energia fornita dall’ipl 

Il repintino innalzamento della temperatura 

danneggia la struttura cellulare portando alla 

distruzione del bulbo. 

Affinchè il bulbo si riscaldi alla giusta 

temperatura si deve calibrare 

esattamente il lampo del flash 

Le variabili di cui tenere conto sono: 

•fototipo 

•Livello di abbronzatura 

•Colore del capello 

• dimensione del pelo

Hair removal procedure through 

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) 


Silk Light

La depilazione anche se 

ben fatta interviene solo 

sui bulbi attivi in quel 

momento. 

I peli hanno varie fasi di 

vita dette anagen 1 e 2 

catagen e telogen 

Se un bulbo con contiene 

almeno una minima 

quantità di pigmento scuro 

non subirà alcun danno e 

potrà in seguito generare 

un pelo. Occorrono diversi 

trattamenti per arrivare a 

una depilazione completa . 

Si ripetono di soloto ogni 

30 \35 giorni.

In funzione del fototipo la lunghezza 

d’onda può variare per ottimizzare la 

procedura. 

Per pelli scure , meridionali , è 

indicato usare 650 nm, mentre nelle 

regioni padane va bene la 625 nm. 

Le bionde naturali possono essere 

trattate anche con 590 nm

1Controindicazioni 


�Gravidanza – dagli studi non sono emersi riscontri di danni arrecati al feto da un 

Silk 

sistema 

Light 

a luce pulsata; i 

risultati del trattamento potrebbero non essere affidabili a causa delle fluttuazioni 

Twain 

dei livelli 

IPL 

ormonali. 

�Disfunzioni mestruali – i pazienti con disfunzioni mestruali o iperandrogenismo accertato devono rivolgersi 

a un endocrinologo per sottoporsi a una valutazione ed individuare un possibile trattamento di tipo medico. 

Questi pazienti tendono a manifestare un irsutismo secondario al processo della malattia che potrebbe 

rispondere al trattamento medico. 

�Epilessia – sono possibili reazioni epilettiche durante il trattamento. 

�Storia di melanoma: non effettuare il trattamento 

�Tatuaggi – non effettuare il trattamento su tatuaggi: rischio di bruciature e danneggiamento di pelle e 

pigmenti. 

�Allergie – accertarsi della presenza di eventuali allergie a medicinali, lattice, alimenti o altre sostanze. 

Non è un criterio di esclusione assoluto ma va valutato per eventuali contatti con allergeni. 

�Medicinali – con o senza prescrizione. Accertarsi di includere qualsiasi tipo di rimedio, in quanto alcuni 

potrebbero causare fotosensibilità. I pazienti non devono assumere Accutane, anticoagulanti e farmaci 

fotosensibilizzanti. 

�Storia di formazione di cheloidi – anche se esiti cicatriziali sono estremamente rari, essi possono essere 

provocati dall’atto di togliere eventuali croste. Per questo motivo, si consiglia di escludere dal trattamento 

persone soggette alla formazione di cheloidi. 

�Infezioni attive – infezioni attive e immunosoppressione compromettono la capacità di guarigione 

del corpo. Riprogrammare il trattamento una volta eliminata l’infezione. 

�Condizioni generali della pelle precarie – il trattamento deve essere effettuato esclusivamente su pelle 

sana e intatta. 

�Herpes nell’area da sottoporre al trattamento – il paziente deve consultare anzitutto il proprio medico per 

individuare una possibile profilassi prima di iniziare il trattamento. 

�Uso di epilatori meccanici – interrompere l’uso almeno 4 settimane prima del trattamento.

procedura di lavoro 


Silk Light 

Twain IPL 

• Anamnesi - Informare il paziente , chiedere che si presenti 

• depilato (anche per non sporcare in studio) 

• Compilare una scheda promemoria e fotografare la zona; 

• Preparare occhiali e allontanare chi ne è sprovvisto; 

• Proteggere nei o lesioni con adesivi o creme bianche; 

• Stendere il gel trasparente raffreddato su una area adeguata; 

• Selezionare i parametri; 

• Iniziare il trattamento.

Importante per la depilazione 

Premere il manipolo sulla superficie 

• premere il manipo avvicina i bulbi e 

ovviamente allontana i fluidi facilitando il 

passaggio dell’onda energetica 

• spesso la radice del pelo 

si trova a 4 \ 5 mm sotto 

cute. Negli altri trattamenti 

non occorre premere.

Dal secondo trattamento l’esposizione ideale deve generare un lieve rossore. Se 

non compare questo rossore la fluenza potrebbe essere troppo bassa. 

Tuttavia entro 1\2 giorni tutto ritorna come prima (si può sentire anche un lieve 

prurito ) .Le uniche creme da applicare sono quelle idratanti, a meno che si 

abbia una reazione avversa eccessiva , in tal caso si utilizzano quelle con ossido 

di zinco tipo Pasta Fissan Ovviamente se così avviene si deve ridurre la fluenza. 

Ulteriuori informazioni sul manuale applicativo.

Silk Light 

Twain IPL 

� L’utilizzo di impacchi freddi e/o creme all’ossido di zinco o aloe vera dopo il trattamento riduce la 

possibilità di comparsa di eritema ed edemi e arreca sollievo al paziente. 

� È normale provare una sensazione simile a quella di una lieve bruciatura solare. Generalmente dura 

2-24 ore, ma può persistere anche fino a 72 ore, in questo caso applicare impacchi freddi o un 

panno umido sulle aree sottoposte al trattamento per 15 minuti ogni 2-4 ore, fino a quando i 

sintomi non scompaiono. 

� Fare il bagno o la doccia, come al solito. Le aree trattate potrebbero essere sensibili alla 

temperatura: bagni o docce tiepide o fredde daranno sollievo. 

� Non utilizzare scrubber aggressivi o esfolianti, spugne naturali o scrub brushes, fino a quando l’area 

interessata non sarà tornata alla condizione antecedente il trattamento. 

� Non esporre le aree trattate ai raggi solari. Utilizzare uno schermo totale se l’esposizione è 

inevitabile. Evitare l’esposizione al sole ridurrà la probabilità di cambiamenti del colore della pelle. 

� 7-21 giorni dopo il trattamento si noterà una sorta di ricrescita: non si tratta tuttavia di una ricrescita 

dei peli, ma sono i peli trattati che vengono espulsi, rimossi dalla pelle. 

� I peli che erano nella fase di riposo (telogen) al momento del trattamento entreranno nella fase 

attiva di crescita (anagen) dopo 1-6 mesi, a seconda della zona in questione. 

� I trattamenti di follow-up potranno essere effettuati entro 1-2 settimane dalla nuova ricrescita, in 

media 35 giorni per il viso, ascelle e inguine; 45 giorni per il resto del corpo. 

� Evitare rasatura, ceretta, nuoto, hot tubs, e un esercizio fisico eccessivo nei 7 giorni successivi al 

trattamento, o comunque fino a quando non scompare il rossore. 

� Se si formano vesciche o lievi abrasioni, applicare una pomata antibiotica sull’area interessata. 

� Non cercare di togliere eventuali croste, per ridurre il rischio di infezioni o cicatrizzazioni.

1.1 Raccomandazioni post-trattamento 

� 

� È normale provare una sensazione simile a quella di una lieve bruciatura solare. Generalmente dura 

2-24 ore, ma può persistere anche fino a 72 ore. A questo si può accompagnare un leggero gonfiore 

e/o rossore, entrambi risolvibili nel giro di 2-3 giorni. In alcuni casi, il rossore può risultare 

prolungato e possono comparire delle piccole croste in prossimità di lentigo molto scure. 

� Le lentigo possono inizialmente sembrare rialzate e/o più scure con un perimetro arrossato. 

Applicare del ghiaccio o un impacco freddo sulle aree trattate per 10-15 minuti ai fini di diminuire la 

sensazione di calore. 

� La lesione apparirà sempre più scura nelle 24-48 ore successive. Potrà diventare marrone scura o 

addirittura nera. 

� La lesione assumerà infine la forma di croste che inizieranno a staccarsi dopo 2-3 giorni. Non 

cercare di togliere le eventuali croste per ridurre il rischio di effetti collaterali indesiderati. 

� Le lesioni pigmentate guariranno solitamente nel giro di 7-10 giorni. Continuerà a sbiadire nelle 

2-4 settimane successive. 

� L’intero ciclo prevede 5-8 trattamenti, con una pausa di 3-4 settimane tra le varie sedute. 

� 

Evitare l’esposizione diretta della zona trattata ai raggi solari. Si raccomanda l’utilizzo quotidiano di uno 

schermo totale per prevenire nuove lesioni o una nuova iper-pigmentazione.

Treatment Procedure 

Photorejuvenation 

Endpoint: 

The ideal endpoint is a 

moderate edema and erithema 

of the treated area and a light 

darkening of the pigmented 

lesions, without whitening of 

the skin, and low pain. This 

endpoint is more visible in low 

skin type (I to III)

Vascular lesions like 

telangectasia and

coagulated by the light 

energy of the IPL, 

choosing the right range 

of wavelengths and pulse 

duration. 

The correct handpiece, is 

the 550 nm able to treat 

the skin up to skintype IV. 


Silk Light 

Twain IPL



�The small area (3.1Cm 2 ) is highly suggested 

�Do not treat near the eye area. Always use eye protection 

during treatments. 

� Wash and dry the area to be treated. The area should be free 

of makeup, ointment or any hair prior to treatment. 

� Apply Quanta Transparent Gel to treatment area. 

� Start spot tests with the lowest setting listed in the 

corresponding Test Spot Table and increase to next step, 

without overlapping of pulses, after checking for skin reaction. If 

there is evidence of darkening, strong pain or deep reddening of 

the skin reduce the setting to a lower one, and re-test. 

� Do not use pressure on the skin with the handpiece during the 

treatment. 

� Treatment may be administered at settings, as indicated by 

the test spots and below the threshold for adverse skin 

reactions. 


Silk Light

Post Treatment: 


Silk Light 

Twain IPL 

� Mild sunburn-like sensation is expected. This usually lasts 2-24 hours but can 

persist up to 72 hours. For better patient’s comfort, cool the skin after 

treatment. 

� Avoid aggressive scrubbing and use of exfoliants, scrub brushes and loofah 

sponges until the treatment area has returned to its pretreatment condition 

� Avoid sun exposure to treated areas. Use a sunblock if sun exposure is 

unavoidable. Sun avoidance will decrease likelihood of skin color changes 

� The lesion will gradually turn darker over the next 24-48 hours 

� The lesion will progress to scabs/crusting and will start flaking off in 2-3 

days. 

� Do not pick, scratch or remove scabs. This will prevent unwanted side 

effects. 

� Apply cicatrizing cream at the end of the treatment. Do not use 

corticosteroids. 

� The lesion is usually healed in 7-10 days. 

� In average 1-3 sessions every 20 days are necessary.

COMMENTS 

•Only Burst mode, it is not possible to 

deliver a single pulse, necessary for effective 

treatments of vascular lesions 

•VPL is a very long burst mode with very 

short pulses, each shots are too close to the 

TRT of the epidermis (< 10ms). Each pulse 

is consequently absorbed very well by the 

epidermis that has to be contrarily 

protected. It is much safer to use burst with 

each pulse longer than the epidermis TRT 

(>15 ms). Energist burst safety is not 

proven 

•Long rep. rate causes long treatment time 

•Only Spot size available of 50 x 10 mm

•LHE is heat and photo thermal combination.

This is proven that don’t work because the 

spectrum of emission is to high from 400 to 

1200 nm that the most of the energy delivered 

by the flashlamp (that is very low max 9 J/Cm2) 

is visible and only the last part of the visible light 

start go deep (es. 600 nm reach 1mm depth, 

500 only 0.4 mm). considering scattering, only 

2-3 J/Cm2 reach the depth of the hair follicles in 

hair removal treatment. In second way the heat 

is by conduction from the handpiece to the skin 

so the epidermis must be at higher temperature 

than dermis, exactly the opposite of the

Comments: 

•The standard handpiece for hair removal is too 

aggressive for dark skins 

•The filters that allow wavelength up to 1200 nm are 

dangerous especially for dark skin because of the 

absorption by the skin’s water is higher than the water 

absorption with filters cutted at 950 nm. With this filters, 

many energy is absorbed by all the skin, not only by 

chromophore melanin that is the target for hair removal 

treatment, increasing the risk of side effects 

•Only single pulse emission. The burst mode is safer 

when darker skins are treated 

•The contact integrated skin cooler doesn't guarantee the 

suitable protection with standard handpiece for hair 

removal because of the too large spectrum of emission 

•The fluences declared are reached with the maximum 

pulse duration. This time is too long for effective 

treatment of the hair especially if the hair are thin (see
