This method is exceedingly quick and efficient. A number of hairs can be treated simultaneously with each laser pulse, which lasts just a fraction of a second. Smaller areas, like the top lip, can be treated in under a minute, while larger areas, like the back or legs, often require an hour or so. Most patients experience permanent hair removal following the procedure, which takes, on average, three to seven sessions.

Before procedure

This is a medical operation that should only be carried out by qualified personnel. You must avoid waxing, electrolysis, and hair removal procedures for six weeks prior to treatment. This is so that the laser can focus on the hair roots that waxing or hair removal temporarily remove. For six weeks prior to and following the procedure, be sure to avoid being in the sun. Sun exposure reduces the effectiveness of laser hair removal and frequently leads to issues following the procedure.

What to Expect

The hair in the treatment area will be clipped to a few millimetres above the skin's surface to start the therapy. The laser's settings will be changed based on the colour, thickness, and location of the unwanted hair as well as the tone of your skin. You would be required to put on suitable eye protection. A cold gel or other type of cooling device will be administered to safeguard your skin's outer layers. This will facilitate effective skin penetration by the laser light.

The technician will then apply a pulse of light to the troubled area and monitor it for a while to make sure the best settings were applied and to look for any indications of a bad reaction.
You might receive ice packs, anti-inflammatory creams, or lotions after the surgery to relieve any pain you might experience.

Post Procedure

The treated hair will start to fall out during the course of the following month. you must apply sunscreen every day for the next month. Although they are uncommon, blisters are more common in those with darker skin tones.Edoema, and redness are further potential adverse effects.
