What is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a modern and highly effective procedure that uses intense light to permanently or semi-permanently reduce unwanted hair. The treatment works by targeting the melanin pigment in hair follicles. The laser’s light is absorbed by the pigment and converted into heat, damaging the follicles and preventing future hair growth.

Procedure Steps

• Preparation of the Area The treatment begins with cleaning the targeted area to ensure it is ready for the laser application.
• Laser Application A laser beam is directed at the treatment area, where the light energy penetrates the hair follicles and damages them through the absorption of pigment.
• Cooling for Comfort In some cases, a cooling gel or device is applied to minimize the sensation of heat and maximize patient comfort during the session.
• Multiple Sessions Required Since hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are usually needed to ensure effective and lasting hair removal.

Pre- and Post-Procedure Precautions

Before the Procedure:

• Avoid Sun Exposure: Refrain from direct sunlight exposure for 2-4 weeks before the session to minimize side effects.
• No Waxing or Plucking: Avoid waxing or plucking hair in the weeks leading up to the treatment, as the hair needs to be in its growth phase for effective laser targeting.
• Avoid Skin Lightening Products: Steer clear of bleaching creams or medications that increase skin sensitivity.

After the Procedure:

• Protect from Sun: Avoid direct sunlight exposure and use sunscreen to safeguard the treated area.
