TRIA Personal Laser Hair Removal System Now Available
TRIA Beauty, a leader in light-based beauty, today announced the TRIA Personal Laser Hair Removal System is available for sale at select aesthetic physicians nationwide. The TRIA system is the first FDA-cleared laser for at-home hair removal in the US market. The physician roll-out marks the debut of this much anticipated beauty “must-have” and will be followed by a broader retail launch later this year.
“We’re working with the top aesthetic dermatologists and plastic surgeons in the country to launch the TRIA system and have been overwhelmed by the positive response,” said Robert Grove, Ph.D., CEO, TRIA Beauty. “Consumers are actively seeking out the TRIA laser so they can enjoy the results of laser hair removal in the privacy and comfort of their own home, at their convenience.”
The scientists at TRIA Beauty are the same scientists who developed the gold standard professional laser for hair removal in the early 1990’s. Responding to the consumer demand for more advanced beauty systems for personal use, the team miniaturized the technology with the TRIA system and made it safe for use at home.
“Our patients have been asking for TRIA since the beginning of the year,” said Eric Bernstein, MD, Director, Main Line Center for Laser Surgery, Bryn Mawr, PA. Soon after the system’s FDA-clearance in February, reports about TRIA were featured in The Wall Street Journal, Allure magazine and on The Today Show, among other media. “My wife is a doctor, and gets laser hair removal in my office whenever she wants. That said, the convenience of the TRIA system was obvious when it disappeared as soon as I brought it home. She simply finds it easier to use the TRIA system when she wants — without having to leave home.”
The TRIA laser is designed for consumers with light to medium skin tones and dark hair. A proprietary skin sensor “unlocks” the system once it confirms the user’s skin can be treated. Waves of energy target the hair follicle, leaving the surrounding skin untouched. To achieve optimal results, treat once a month for 6-8 treatments. The most popular areas for treatment are underarms, bikini, legs, arms and backs.
“The TRIA laser is popular even among my current hair removal clients who want to treat a different area in the convenience of their own home,” said Mitchel Goldman, MD, Medical Director of La Jolla Spa MD.
The TRIA laser retails for $995. In September, TRIA will be sold at Bergdorf Goodman (NY), Bliss Spas and Fred Segal (LA), as well as online.
**Update: The Tria Personal Laser Hair Removal System is available.

There’s a brand-new TRIA going on eBay for half of the retail price. The ebay number is 190253910132, just search “190253910132″ in the Ebay search field and it comes up. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal!
I plan to buy myself one of these tria hair removal machines some day In response to the question of whether it will work, and how can it compete with commercial laser hair removal devices, I suspect that it is a weaker version so will probably not pack the full punch. Also tria do point out that it is only safe for use on pale hair.
My TRIA arrived this morning! It was painfull giving my credit card details for something that ‘might’ work. have read the reviews and just wasn’t sure. I really don;t expect permanent, but even if it kills the hair for a few weeks, and grows back thinner I will happy, as will be able to keep topping up at home. I Have only done the recommened test patch so far, feel nothing on low, slight warmth on medium and a hot pin prick on High (this is on bikini line so probably the most sensative place) I can just about handle waxing at home (after a few large glasses of wine) but this leaves the problem of ingrown hairs and I really hate doing it. Most of the reviews i have read seem to be from people who have been supplied a TRIA by the company for this purpose. So i will keep you posted as I know the ‘buy or not buy’ dilema. Its a lot of money for me, i am by no means well off but if its works it will be money well spent.

Someone who owns one of these, let us know how this is working for you….my only concern is that is specifically says “not for use of face” and most of my hair removal neeeds are chin and lip. I suppose I have some leg use, but is it worth the price??
Fine product and price is also reasonable and in range of a common man.
