Laser  Hair Removal

Laser hair removal offers numerous benefits that make it a popular choice for long-term hair reduction: 

​

  • Long-Lasting Results: Unlike shaving or waxing, laser hair removal can provide long-term hair reduction, with many people experiencing permanent hair loss after multiple sessions. 

  • Precision: Lasers can selectively target dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. 

  • Speed: Each laser pulse takes only a fraction of a second and can treat many hairs simultaneously. Small areas like the upper lip can be treated in less than a minute, while larger areas like the back or legs may take up to an hour. 

  • Reduced Ingrown Hairs: Laser hair removal reduces the risk of ingrown hairs, which can be a common issue with shaving and waxing.

Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses concentrated beams of light (lasers) to remove unwanted hair. The laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. This light energy is converted into heat, which damages the hair follicles responsible for hair growth. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth.

When you go for a laser hair removal treatment, here's what you can generally expect: 

​

  • Consultation: The process begins with a consultation with a healthcare professional to assess your skin type, hair type, and the appropriate treatment plan. 

  • Preparation: The treatment area should be shaved a day or two before the appointment to ensure the laser can effectively target the hair follicles. Avoid waxing or plucking before the treatment, as the hair follicle needs to be intact. 

  • During the Procedure: You will be given protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the laser light. The healthcare professional will apply a cooling gel or a cooling device to protect your skin and enhance comfort during the procedure. The laser device will be adjusted to the appropriate settings and applied to the treatment area. 

  • Sensation: You may feel a slight discomfort during the procedure, often described as a rubber band snapping against the skin. Some areas may be more sensitive than others. 

  • Recovery: After the procedure, you may experience redness and swelling similar to a mild sunburn, which typically subsides within a few hours to a couple of days. Applying ice packs and aloe vera gel can help soothe the skin.
