How the Laser Works
The Laser is a light which is absorbed by the melanin of the hair.
When absorbed, it acts directly on the hair follicle. The heat then acts at the heart of the hair bulb preventing hair regrowth.
There are 3 phases of regrowth.
Our target is to have the hair in its anagen phase, so any hair in this targeted phase will be an eliminated hair.
How many sessions are needed?
In general 6 to 12 sessions depending on the profile to achieve 80 to 90% less hair in the treated area.
Very light skin and very dark hair are the best contrast for results.
Other skin types will require a slightly higher number of sessions for results.
Men
Men's hair differs from women's by the area where the hair is located, and also by its density and the thickness of the skin. It is completely normal for men to need more sessions.
Before treatment
The targeted area must be shaved 24 to 48 hours before the session
With a razor and soap, without depilatory products.
Is hair removal really permanent?
The Laser offers lasting results.
Laser treatment is effective in reducing growth and does not guarantee 100% total and permanent hair removal.
However, if hairs persist, they often become light and fine.
Some may grow back under the influence of hormones, which will require an additional assessment, always free of charge.
It will take a maintenance session every 1 or 2 years to maintain the result.
Contraindications
Certain medications and health factors factor into a decision whether or not to have laser treatment. Skin infections, age, the sun.
During your first consultation, informed consent will be provided to you in order to assess all eventualities.
How often do you meet
In general, the first three sessions are spaced 4 to 5 weeks apart depending on the area and 5 weeks to 1 month, or even more thereafter.
