Soprano Ice Titanium Versus Soprano Ice Platinum for Pain Free Laser Hair Removal

Alma Lasers make both the Soprano Ice Platinum and Soprano Titanium, and are extremely fast & effective at removing unwanted hair. The Soprano Ice Platinum is the older version of the Soprano Ice Titanium. The technology is very similar, but two key differences make the Soprano Ice Titanium a better choice for the client. These two differences are faster treatment times and new technology to treat intimate areas more effectively.

Faster Safe Treatments

The main improvement in the Soprano Ice Titanium is its much faster hair removal, especially on larger areas such as the legs, back, chest, and arms. This is because it has a larger laser window on the handpiece. The laser tip/window is twice the size on the Soprano Ice Titanium compared to the older Soprano Ice Platinum. This means that treatment times can be reduced by 50% on larger areas. This is a huge advantage, as it means full-body treatments no longer take more than 2 hours to complete. It means that clients can literally pop in during their lunch hour. They no longer have to spend precious time on weekends or after work. 

The larger laser tip/window provides additional cooling, which means the treatment remains pain-free and minimises the risk of burns and hyperpigmentation. This is especially crucial when treating skin of colour & tanned skin. Alma lasers are the world’s No. 1 and are the safest and most effective lasers on the market; they have a 100% safety record. 

It’s important to note that areas with any residue of fake tan cannot be treated. We can treat it if it’s a natural tan from sunbeds or holidays, but never fake tan. With traditional laser and IPL hair removal, clients must wait 4-6 weeks after sunbeds or holidays. This is because there are much higher risks of burns, blisters and hyperpigmentation with these lasers. This is what makes Soprano Titanium lasers so different. You will become smoother and hair-free much sooner.

New Technology

Soprano Titanium also features a new stacking technology (SHR Stack) to be used alongside the same ‘In-Motion’ technique used in the Soprano Ice Platinum. 

SHR Stack

The SHR stack delivers controlled heat to hair follicles in shots while preventing skin damage. This technology allows us to treat really stubborn areas, such as the lip, chin, and labia, more effectively than the Soprano Ice Platinum. This is still pain-free as the sapphire-iced tip instantly cools.

In-Motion

The In-Motion technique is the same in both lasers. It’s a sweeping motion which allows full coverage of the treatment area whilst cooling simultaneously. Both lasers still use the 3 different wavelengths (Yag, Diode & Alexandrite) to target different depths and structures of the hair follicle. By using all 3 wavelengths, it achieves permanent hair reduction. Traditional lasers and IPL only use one wavelength.

Soprano Ice Laser is the oldest laser & not worth it

The oldest laser is just called the Soprano Ice; this laser was launched before the Soprano Ice Platinum and Soprano Ice Titanium. This laser was made over a decade ago, but many clinics still use it. The 3 main reasons they are different are wavelength, time, and technology.

The Soprano Ice has only one wavelength in the handpiece, not 3 as in the Soprano Ice Platinum and Soprano Ice Titanium. This means the Soprano Ice lasers are way less effective at destroying the hair follicles, and the results are disappointing.

Treatments are super slow using the Soprano Ice as the treatment window/tip is much smaller.

The Soprano Ice doesn’t have the new stacking technology either, which means it’s also less effective for hard-to-reach and stubborn areas such as the lips, bikini area, and labia.
