Laser Hair Reduction is a faster, gentle way to remove unwanted hair, with great results. Laser Hair Reduction applies precisely controlled pulses of energy (electrical and light, with cooling), reaching into the hair follicles that lie beneath the skin. The energy heats the hair, right down to the bottom of the root, destroying it without damaging surrounding tissue or skin.
Each pulse, which lasts less than a second, produces a slight tingling feeling. In particularly sensitive areas, such as the upper lip, it may feel like a quick, light pinch.
At Epiderm laser clinics we use Nd-Yag,IPL and Diode laser depending upon your hair and skin color and type. As long as there is some color in your hair then our laser hair reduction system will be effective.
The energies used by Epiderm laser clinics are both commonly used in a range of medical and cosmetic procedures that have proven to be safe. Most people experience no side effects at all, though few exhibit some short-term local reddening of the surrounding skin. You can return to your regular activities immediately after laser hair reduction treatment, although it is advisable to keep the skin protected from exposure to direct sunlight for a short period of time.
Our laser hair reduction technology destroys hairs that are in the active growth phase, so repeat treatments will be needed to target hair that was not affected at the time of previous laser hair reduction treatments. Normally six laser hair reduction treatments are recommended to get the optimum results.
