How much time involved in this treatment?

You will notice results after your first laser treatment. It takes four to six sessions spaced four weeks apart to see 70 to 80 percent reduction in hair growth. For best results, get maintenance treatments done once a year for at least a couple years.

How long does Laser Hair removal last?

Laser hair removal is most efficient when the laser can focus on a difference in pigment, such as dark hair erupting from light skin. Lasers have come a long way and the technology is continually improving. Patient needs to attend the sessions & continue with the precaution suggested by the dermatologist. When you book your appointment, describe your skin tone and hair color and ask how the lasers will work on you.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?

During laser hair removal treatment, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the tube-shaped sacs within the skin (hair follicles) that produce hairs. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth.

Laser works according to the sessions, so it is important to attend the entire session schedule by Dermatologist. You will be surprised to know that it’s more cost-effective then waxing. Although laser hair removal effectively delays hair growth for long periods, it usually results in permanent hair removal. Multiple laser hair removal treatments are needed for initial hair removal, and maintenance treatments might be needed as well.

Our Dermatologist offer specific instructions to prepare for laser hair removal. These might include:

  1. Avoid sun exposure, usually up to six weeks before treatment, and use sunscreen daily.
  2. Avoid any sunless skin creams that darken your skin. Only use lotions and creams prescribed by dermatologist.
  3. Avoid other hair removal methods. Plucking, waxing and electrolysis can disturb the hair follicle and should be avoided at least four weeks before treatment.
  4. Don’t take any medication before or during the treatment unless the doctor prescribed you the same.
  5. Due to skin sensitivity avoid excess heat for 24-48 hours such as hot showers, saunas, hot tubs, or heat packs
  6. Avoid make-up, deodorant, or other topical creams or medications for 24 hours.
  7. Gently exfoliate the area in the shower.
