Laser hair removal is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses concentrated light (laser) to target and reduce unwanted hair. The laser light is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair, which converts the energy into heat, damaging the hair follicles and inhibiting future growth. This treatment is commonly used on areas like the face, legs, arms, underarms, and bikini line for smooth, hair-free skin.
The procedure is virtually painless, as controlled cooling technology ensures no damage to the surrounding skin. Most patients report the sensation feeling similar to a mild hot stone massage.
Significantly reduces hair growth, with many people experiencing permanent results after several sessions.
Targets dark, coarse hairs without damaging surrounding skin.
Each laser pulse treats multiple hairs at once. Small areas (like the upper lip) take only minutes, while larger areas (legs or back) take less than an hour.
Feels like a mild snapping or warmth, much more comfortable than waxing or electrolysis.
Unlike shaving or waxing, laser hair removal prevents ingrown hairs.
Leaves skin soft, hair-free, and free from irritation.
It significantly reduces hair growth, but maintenance sessions may be needed to ensure long-lasting results. For some, long-term hair removal is achieved after multiple sessions.
Most people describe the sensation as a mild snapping or warmth. Some areas may be more sensitive, but cooling technology minimizes discomfort.
Typically, 6–8 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart are required for optimal results. The number of sessions depends on hair type, skin tone, and the treatment area.
Yes, but results vary. Lighter skin with dark hair responds best. Advanced lasers like Nd:YAG work well on darker skin tones.
Yes, when performed by a trained professional. Mild side effects such as redness or swelling may occur but typically subside within a few hours.
