How many sessions are necessary?
As our hair is in different growth phases, repeated treatment is required for a successful result with laser hair removal.
The number of sessions required also depends on the area of the body being treated.
As a rule, around 3 to 6 sessions are necessary to achieve optimum results and eliminate unwanted hair growth.
Is laser hair removal painful?
Thanks to the cooled laser head, the treatment is generally well tolerated.
Occasionally, a tingling or prickling sensation may occur on the skin.
To additionally cool the skin and increase comfort, we apply a cooling gel to the treated area.
Side effects of laser and IPL
If the laser is used correctly, there may only be a so-called reflex erythema, i.e. a slight reddening as a normal reaction to the laser treatment.
In very rare cases, slight blistering or temporary under- or over-pigmentation may occur. However, these changes are temporary and can be treated with appropriate care measures.
Special care should be taken when depilating yourself with IPL, as there is a higher risk of side effects.
Unprofessional handling can lead to serious skin damage.
It is therefore strongly recommended that IPL treatments are only carried out by qualified specialists.
