Laser Hair Removal

• Laser Hair Removal targets the hair follicle using brief pulses of light energy.
• The laser light is absorbed by melanin in the hair follicle and prevents any regrowth from happening in the future.
• The process is completely safe and leaves the surrounding tissue unharmed.

How to prepare for laser hair removal!

✔️ Epilation areas must be carefully shaved. 4-8 hours before the procedure, the epilation area must be thoroughly shaved. If you plan to do laser epilation of the upper lip, then you can not shave this area, but remove the hair with a depilatory cream. Do not sunbathe in the active sun for 2 weeks.

✔️ It is necessary to exclude tanning in the active sun for at least 14 days before the procedure. It is also not possible to sunbathe in a solarium and use self-tanner. In the summer, it is recommended to use a sunscreen of at least 50 SPF on open areas of the body.

✔️ Do not remove hairs from the root.

If you previously removed hairs with the root (wax, epilator or tweezers), you should wait 2-3 weeks until the hair cover is completely restored. The laser affects the pigment and hair bulb directly. Do not wipe the areas with alcohol-containing products and creams

✔️ 2 days before the procedure, do not wipe the area with alcohol-containing products (toners, lotions, etc.). Also, 2-3 days before the procedure, you cannot visit the pool and swim in rivers and lakes.

✔️ Do not take antibiotics for 2 weeks. Tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolones, and sulfonamides should not be taken 14 days before the procedure.
