What is Laser Hair Removal?

Eradicate unwanted hair effortlessly with laser hair removal, a non-surgical, non-invasive technique. A laser beam passes through your skin, zeroing in on the pigment in each hair. Energy then flows to the follicle’s growth cells, inhibiting future hair growth.

Most people respond well to laser hair removal unless their pigment is absent from their hair, like white or light blonde shades. This is because laser hair removal targets pigment. If you have light skin and dark, coarse hair, you’re an ideal candidate for laser hair removal. However, Lutronic’s lasers are versatile enough to cater to a wide range of skin and hair types. For darker skin, we calibrate the laser settings to shield your skin’s surface. If you have lighter hair, a few extra sessions might be required for the lighter pigment to respond to treatment.

Treatment Options

  • Depilatories, waxing and shaving
  • Electrolysis
  • Over the counter hair removal devices

Common Questions Answered:

In 1997, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved hair removal lasers for permanent hair reduction. As long as you receive the right number of treatments with the right laser and settings, laser hair removal can be highly effective. However, some hairs might be resistant to treatment and could reappear, though likely thinner and lighter.

Treatment duration can be as brief as 4 minutes or last over an hour, depending on the size of the area treated. A small area like the upper lip or chin will take less time compared to a larger area like the back.

Since hair grows in cycles, most patients will need three or more treatments, usually spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart. Each session should result in a 10-25% reduction in hair growth.

Most patients report a mild pinching sensation as the laser glides over the hair. Lutronic lasers come equipped with advanced pain management systems to ease any discomfort and safeguard your skin during the procedure.

Side effects are generally mild. Your skin might exhibit a sunburn-like redness, which usually subsides within 24 to 48 hours. Extreme side effects like blisters are exceptionally rare.
