🏆 The Clear Winner for Most Clients
Why 95% of our clients choose the same technology
💡 Why Soprano ICE Platinum is the Smart Choice
Works on all skin types
Virtually painless
In-motion technology

ℹ️ Other Technologies (Limited Use Cases)

Budget option (more sessions): IPL/DPC (light skin only)
How to Choose the Right Laser for Your Skin & Hair
Three things matter most: skin type (Fitzpatrick I–VI), hair colour & thickness, and comfort/speed. If you tan easily or have a deeper tone, ensure the clinic can treat safely with 1064 nm and has experience across skin types. If you're time-pressed, ask about in-motion technologies and larger spot sizes for faster coverage. For the fewest total visits, modern triple-wavelength diode tends to balance efficacy and comfort best across real-world clients.
Tip: Always ask how many sessions a clinic typically recommends for your area and hair density, and whether maintenance is common for hormonal zones like bikini and face.

⚡ Candela GentleMax Pro
- Tech: Alexandrite + Nd:YAG (755 + 1064 nm)
- Pain level: Moderate
- Skin types: Light–medium (Nd:YAG expands range)
- Hair: Best on dark hair
- Speed: Moderate
- Typical Brazilian: $70–$100 / session
Context: Proven workhorse; comfort depends on settings/cooling. Often requires more sessions than modern triple-wavelength diode for mixed skin/hair profiles.
🎯 Candela Max (Nd:YAG)
- Tech: Nd:YAG 1064 nm
- Pain level: Moderate
- Skin types: Medium–dark (I–VI with caution)
- Hair: Best on coarse, dark hair
- Speed: Moderate
- Typical Brazilian: $60–$90 / session
Limitations: Single wavelength can be less versatile for varied hair/skin combinations compared with triple-wavelength diode platforms.
💡 IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)
- Tech: Broad-spectrum 500–1200 nm
- Pain level: Moderate–high
- Skin types: Best on light skin, dark hair
- Hair: Dark hair only; less effective on lighter hairs
- Speed: Slower
- Typical Brazilian: $50–$80 / session
Why it's cheaper: older tech, usually more sessions for similar reduction; limited compatibility across skin tones compared with modern lasers.
🚀 Lumenis LightSheer (Diode)
- Tech: Diode (805 nm or 1060 nm depending on model)
- Comfort: Low–moderate with ChillTip or vacuum assist
- Skin types: All (I–VI) with appropriate settings
- Speed: Fast; strong on large areas
- Typical Brazilian: $70–$110 / session
Context: Famous diode family. Comfort/speed are solid; versatility varies by handpiece and wavelength load-out.
❄️ DEKA Motus AX/AY (Moveo)
- Tech: AX = Alexandrite 755 nm; AY = Alex 755 nm + Nd:YAG 1064 nm
- Comfort: In-motion Moveo delivery; contact cooling
- Skin types: AX best on light–med; AY broadens range
- Speed: Fast in-motion passes; efficient on legs/body
- Typical Brazilian: $70–$110 / session
Context: In-motion Alexandrite option. AY adds YAG for darker tones; still not triple-wavelength.
💡 SharpLight DPC / IPL
- Tech: DPC/IPL (broad-spectrum with pulse-shape control)
- Comfort: Moderate; more heat-sensations reported vs modern diode
- Skin types: Best on light–med tones with dark hair
- Speed: Slower; often more sessions vs diode/Moveo
- Typical Brazilian: $50–$80 / session
Why it's budget-friendly: broader spectrum and older paradigm; generally requires more visits for comparable reduction.
💰 Technology & Pricing: Why Some Sessions Cost More
In Mississauga, Brazilian laser hair removal typically ranges from $70–$120 per session depending on the device and package. See our current specials or book online to get a personalized quote based on your goals and hair density.
- Equipment cost: Modern triple-wavelength diode systems can be significantly more expensive to acquire and maintain than older IPL.
- Treatment efficiency: Fewer sessions on average (e.g., 6–8 vs. 10–12).
- Safety & comfort: Advanced cooling, in-motion delivery and skin-sensing reduce risk and discomfort.
- Training & warranty: Advanced platforms require specialized training and routine calibration; comprehensive warranties add to costs.
