Alexandrite laser vs Soprano Titanium — which to choose in Baku

Classic "alexandrite 755 nm" (Candela GentleLase, Cynosure Apogee and similar) is one wavelength and a stamping pulse with cryogenic DCD cooling. It suits light skin (I–III) with fine or light-dark hair. Soprano Titanium is the flagship of the Alma Lasers line. A single handpiece combines three wavelengths (alexandrite 755 nm + diode 810 nm + Nd:YAG 1064 nm) firing together (TriPro), and a 4 cm² sapphire tip significantly speeds up large areas. With active ICE contact cooling, SHR and In-Motion, it offers a different level of comfort and versatility compared with classic alexandrite. Contraindications apply.

• ✅ Alexandrite 755 nm fires in every Titanium impulse — selectivity preserved
• ✅ Diode 810 nm and Nd:YAG 1064 nm cover other phototypes and hair types
• ✅ 4 cm² spot speeds up large areas (legs, back, abdomen)
• ✅ Active ICE contact cooling — comfort during the session
• ✅ Light and dark skin handled without changing devices
• ✅ Test patch 3 AZN — try the device before committing to a course

At the consultation the specialist assesses phototype on the Fitzpatrick scale, hair density, color and type, skin condition and any tan. On Soprano Titanium the protocol parameters are set for one handpiece with three wavelengths: for light phototypes with fine hair the emphasis shifts toward 755 nm alexandrite; for medium skin toward 810 nm diode; for dark phototypes toward Nd:YAG 1064 nm. All three wavelengths stay in the impulse, so the shift to "different skin" happens without changing devices. The 4 cm² spot makes legs, back and abdomen faster to cover in a single session.
