Buying a laser hair removal machine for your salon is an important decision, especially with the temptations that come from buying cheap lasers from China, or a second machine altogether.

In this article, we will guide you through the buying process, discussing the process of buying a laser machine, considering the specifications of the machine itself, through the legalities and training required to practice laser hair removal at your clinic. We use the Nu TriLaze Plus as a specific example in this guide, because it has all the elements needed in a laser machine.

The Top 10 Crucial Things to Consider When Buying a Laser Hair Removal Machine

Investing in a laser hair removal machine is a significant decision for any salon. To ensure you’re making the best choice, consider these key factors:

1. Certifications: Your chosen machine should be FDA Approved and Medical CE Certified, verifying its adherence to strict safety and performance standards.

2. Type of Laser: Different lasers serve different purposes. A machine with diverse laser types, such as Alexandrite, Diode, and Nd:YAG lasers, can effectively cater to various skin tones and hair types.

3. User-Friendly: Opt for a machine with an easy-to-navigate interface, clear controls, and concise instructions. This promotes an effortless user experience and a more efficient treatment process.

4. Durability and Maintenance: A high-quality, durable machine will prove cost-effective over time. Seek brands offering comprehensive warranty terms and quality after-sales service.

5. Training and Support: Select a supplier that provides robust training and customer support, ensuring your team’s proficiency in operating the machine and tackling any arising issues.

6. Price: Though pricing is crucial, investing in a high-quality machine promises better results and a higher return on investment over time.

7. On-Going Costs: Most countries mandate annual maintenance for laser hair removal machines. It’s essential to understand these costs upfront and include them in your budget. A cheaper machine demanding expensive maintenance can ultimately cost more.

8. Precision vs Versatility: Laser hair removal is exceptionally targeted, delivering impressive hair removal results. However, if you aim to offer versatile treatments (e.g., treating broken capillaries, superficial veins, and acne removal), an Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) machine could be a more suitable choice. While IPL may not be as potent as laser hair removal, it covers a broader range of applications.

9. Reviews and Reputation: Research the brand’s reputation and customer reviews. A company with a strong track record and positive feedback is more likely to offer quality products and superior customer service.

10. Avoiding Temptation: Beware of tempting, cheap deals, especially for machines originating from China. We’ve detailed the risks associated with buying inexpensive machines from China in another article.

In the upcoming sections, we’ll demonstrate why the Nu TriLaze Plus ticks all these boxes, making it an outstanding choice in the laser hair removal market.
