Why We Love the NIRA Precision Laser Device

How Does the NIRA Skincare Laser work?

REVIEW of the NIRA Precision Laser Device.

Meet the NIRA Precision Laser Device for at-home skincare anti-aging.

This device is FDA-approved for at-home use. It is a non-fractional laser device that tightens skin in only 2 minutes a day.

We explore the patent to understand the technology behind this innovative hand-held laser and how it builds skin collagen. And we tested the NIRA Precision.

Read our experience and what we learned about NIRA!

What to Know About Collagen + Devices

Collagen keeps the scaffolding of your face in place. We lose collagen as we age. This results in sagging, wrinkles, fine lines, and poor skin texture. If you are reading this, you likely want to rebuild collagen.
There are several methods.

But the body needs roughly 12 weeks to build collagen, regardless of the treatment method:

  • topical
  • device based
  • in-office procedure
  • some combination of the above

While there is some immediate improvements to be seen with each approach, there is no “get collagen quick” scheme to be had.

No matter what method you choose, you’ll wait 12 weeks to start to see meaningful restored collagen results.

What is the Nira Precision Laser Device?

This handheld dermatological device stimulates natural collagen production for younger looking skin and works in the small tricky crevice areas like around:

  • the brow bone
  • crow’s feet
  • mouth
  • eleven lines
  • it is particularly effective on forehead wrinkles

What the NIRA Precision Laser Device Does

This lightweight device offers a collagen building method without the risks associated with in-office fractional laser skin resurfacing.

And it is far less painful. No risks or downtime. 

The change is slow and subtle but certainly notable.

About The NIRA Device Technology

The patent explains the process of building collagen quite clearly:

BACKSTORY OF FRACTIONAL LASERS

Traditional fractional lasers seen in dermatological offices heat and destroy skin tissue, specifically deteriorated collagen in the dermal layer of the skin.

The hope is once the old collagen is gone, new healthier collagen will fill it’s place.

This approach is often successful.

Are there any risks to fractional lasers?

Yes. Some things can go wrong. These include:

scarring

infection

discoloration

poor healing

less collagen than desired

And the process is painful.

Why We Love the NIRA Precision Laser Device

NIRA is a non-fractional laser.

The goal is to heat shock the skin enough to stimulate collagen in the dermal layer, but not enough heat to destroy existing collagen.

The NIRA gets a controlled heat shock by combining “an optical energy source that emits optimum wavelengths, an energy dosage, and/or a thermal boost under controlled conditions“. [1] 

These heat shocks produce “heat shock proteins” (HSPs). HSPs stimulate collagen synthesis. Some HSPs are also involved in preventing the kind of cell death seen in skin aging.

To avoid any of the risks associated with traditional fractional lasers:

  • there is a safety sensor to keep the heat controlled.
  • A timer keeps the heat shock energy burst to a short, non-damaging time limit.
  • This makes it safe enough for repeated, non-damaging heat shocks.

What the NIRA Bundle Contains

Here is what came in my bundle:

The Treatment Head

The treatment head makes direct contact with the skin to be treated.

Because the head is small (about the size of a pencil head eraser) the treatment can be very targeted to thin skin areas you otherwise would not aim a fractional (damaging) laser.

This includes eyebrows, nostrils, and lips.

The Nira Precision Laser Device Experience

With a treatment head about the size of a pencil eraser, we find this device can target tiny, hard to reach spots.
This is especially good around the eyes, lips and nose.
