Everything you need to know about laser hair removal

How does the laser hair removal system work?

Each pulse produces a light beam that is absorbed selectively by the hair and the pigmented bulb of the follicle turning into heat without harming skin. This heat increases up to the point coagulation blocking the cells of the dermic papilla which are the producers of hair.

How is the treatment performed?

The equipment has a tip. This is placed on hair and the operator shoots a light beam. Each flash  is carefully controlled by the operator producing a necessary heat to desintegrate the hair follicles of the treated area.

What areas can be treated?

Every area of the body where there is hair can be treated. For example: face, above lip, armpit, legs, arms, bikini line and tummy. In men the areas treated are generally back, chest and beard.

How many sessions are necessary to see the results?

After the first session a lot of hair will be removed, some will fall after a couple of days or weeks. Approximately 5 sessions are needed to see effective results. It depends on the area treated, kind of hair, quantity, colour and the stage of growth. The waiting lapse of time between sessions is 15 to 25 days.

How should I prepare to start treatment?

2 to 3 days prior the session you should shave the area to be treated with laser, It is important not to be tanned in order to avoid skin injuries.

Which is the next step?

An interview with a skilled professional must be carried out. If you have already had the interview, wait no more and forget about hair for ever.
