hello,i'm dr.olga from ukraine and living in jordan,i'm planing to open beauty clinic and i need hair remuval machine,what the better to bring diod lazer(lightsheer)or ipl,so i can do hair mremuval and also some skin procedureplease i'm so confuse,please i need your advise

Dr. Olga –   I have to confess, I’m a little worried that you are planning to open a clinic to treat patients in Jordan and don’t know the answers to these questions.  Could you consider going to one of the European or Asian IMCAS meetings to learn more about all of these treatment modalities?   Google IMCAS  and it should come up. 

 On your laser question, if you are in Jordan, then more of your patients will be Skin Types III-V.  You definately want to be researching Nd:YAG lasers – don’t even think about getting an IPL based system if your patients are generally darker.    Good luck and study hard!!!  Dr. I

One of the best investments in your skin is your daily skincare. Why? Because you can prevent many problems with blotchy skin color, lack of glow, texture, some types of acne, and fine lines with good skincare products. You can also correct some of these problems with effective skincare products. Great skincare is often more expensive because quality ingredients are expensive. Some companies spend on research/development which benefits all of us and adds to the cost. Are they worth it? In general - yes! I have handpicked some of what I consider to be the best skin care products, and offer them for sale on SkinTour's shop. This is based on my team and I's testing and research at our clinic. Many of the products are in my own regimen. What could be better than using skin care products a dermatologist uses?!
