FAQ
How much time and how many sessions do I need to plan for laser treatment?
Optimal results in laser hair removal typically require between six and ten sessions, depending on your hair and skin type. Since active hair follicles need to be targeted during the growth phase, multiple sessions are necessary. The recommended interval between each laser treatment ideally ranges from 4 weeks, corresponding to the natural hair growth cycle.
Various factors, including hair thickness, color, and skin pigmentation, influence the number of required treatments. Hormonal fluctuations can also affect hair growth.
For larger treatment areas, scheduling multiple sessions is advisable. Individual laser sessions vary in duration, ranging from quick 20-minute sessions for small areas of skin to an hour for comprehensive treatments.
What preparations do I need to make for laser hair removal?
For optimal effectiveness of laser hair removal, it is crucial to follow these guidelines:
Preparation before the treatment:
- Refrain from plucking, waxing, sugaring, or epilating the treated areas for at least three weeks before the session.
- Shaving is allowed, as the hair root needs to remain in the hair shaft for the laser beam to effectively target it.
- Avoid bleaching or lightening the hair, as darker hair achieves better and faster treatment results.
- Sun protection measures:
- Minimize sun exposure in the days before and after laser hair removal, including visits to tanning beds.
- Apply a high-quality sunscreen with an SPF of 50 to the treated areas.
- Day of the treatment:
- Shave the treated areas the evening before the laser session.
- Avoid applying deodorant, body lotion, or makeup on the day of the treatment.
- Considerations for medications and supplements:
- Inform us in advance about medications or supplements that may make your skin photosensitive, such as St. John's Wort.
Following these guidelines ensures that your experience with laser hair removal is safe, effective, and maximally beneficial. For personalized advice and further information, feel free to consult with our experienced practitioners at our clinic.
