What is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that uses laser technology to remove unwanted hair from the body. It is a popular option for both men and women who are looking for a long-lasting solution to unwanted hair.

Laser hair removal can be performed on a variety of areas, including the face, legs, underarms, bikini area, and back, amongst others.

Overall, laser hair removal offers a convenient and effective alternative to traditional hair removals methods such as shaving, waxing, or plucking. It provides long-lasting results and can save patients time and money in the long run. It is important to consult with a licensed and experienced provider to determine if laser hair removal is the best option for your individual needs.

How does Laser Hair Removal work?

Laser hair removal works by targeting the melanin in the hair follicle with a specialized laser. The laser emits a beam of light that is absorbed by the melanin, which then heats up and destroys the hair follicle. This process inhibits future hair growth in the treated area.

Our machine uses a diode laser system that uses a wavelength of 810 nanometers to target the melanin in the hair follicle, leading to hair removal.

It features a large spot size and high pulse repetition rate, allowing for faster treatment times and more efficient hair removal. The machine also has a built-in cooling system to help minimize discomfort during the treatment.

What to Expect?

Before the laser hair removal treatment, patients must shave the treatment area to ensure that the laser can penetrate the hair follicles. The laser technician will then adjust the settings on the laser to match the patient's skin tone, hair color, and hair thickness. A cooling gel also is applied to the treatment area to help protect the skin and minimize discomfort during the treatment.

During the laser hair removal treatment, patients may feel a slight stinging or snapping sensation as the laser is applied. However, the cooling gel and the built-in cooling system will help minimize any discomfort. The length of the treatment session will depend on the size of the treatment area, but most sessions take between 15 minutes to over an hour.

After the laser hair removal treatment, patients may experience some redness and swelling in the treated area. These side effects are usually mild and should subside within a few hours. Patients are advised to avoid sun exposure and to apply sunscreen to the treated area to protect the skin.

Laser Hair removal results duration

Laser hair removal results are long-lasting and the best hair reduction solution. Most patients experience significant hair reduction after just a few treatments. However, it is essential to note that results may vary depending on factors such as hair color, skin tone, and hair thickness. Patients may need multiple sessions to achieve their desired results.

Over time, some hair may regrow, but it is usually thinner and lighter in color. Touch-up treatments may be needed every 12 months to maintain the results.
