Laser Hair Removal

Service Details

Laser hair removal is a popular cosmetic treatment that uses high-intensity laser beams to target and remove unwanted hair from the body. This procedure works by targeting the pigment in the hair follicle, which absorbs the laser energy and destroys the follicle, preventing future hair growth.
Laser hair removal is a safe and effective way to remove unwanted hair from various parts of the body, including the face, legs, arms, bikini area, and underarms. It is typically used to treat areas of dense hair growth or areas where shaving or waxing is difficult or uncomfortable.
The laser hair removal procedure typically takes several sessions, spaced several weeks apart. The number of sessions required depends on several factors, including the color and thickness of the hair, as well as the patient’s skin type and the location of the treatment area.
At Anora Skin, Hair and Laser Clinic, we use USFDA approved lasers for hair removal. If you are undergoing this procedure for the first time then prior consultation with our doctors is necessary.
During the procedure, the patient’s skin will be numbed with a topical anesthetic cream to minimize discomfort. The laser is then applied to the skin in a controlled manner, with the depth and intensity of the laser determined by the patient’s skin type and the desired outcome.
Laser hair removal is a safe and effective way to remove unwanted hair, and the results can be long-lasting.

Long-lasting results: Laser hair removal offers long-lasting results compared to other hair removal methods. After completing the recommended number of treatment sessions, most patients experience a significant reduction in hair growth, and some may experience permanent hair loss in the treated areas.
Precision: Laser hair removal targets hair follicles with precision, leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. This is particularly beneficial for removing hair from small or hard-to-reach areas, such as the upper lip, bikini area, or underarms.
Time-saving: Laser hair removal is a relatively quick procedure that can cover large areas of skin in a short amount of time. This is particularly useful for patients with busy schedules who cannot afford to spend time on daily or weekly hair removal routines.
Reduced risk of ingrown hairs: Unlike traditional hair removal methods, such as waxing or shaving, laser hair removal does not cause ingrown hairs or razor bumps. This can be particularly beneficial for patients with sensitive skin or those prone to ingrown hairs.
Improved skin texture: Laser hair removal can also improve the texture of the skin by reducing the appearance of pores and improving skin tone and texture.
Reduced risk of skin irritation: Laser hair removal is a non-invasive procedure that does not cause skin irritation or damage, making it a safe and effective option for most patients.

Proper post-procedure care is essential for optimal results and to minimize any potential side effects after laser hair removal. Here are some post-procedure care tips:
Direct sun exposure can cause skin irritation and hyperpigmentation, so it's essential to avoid sun exposure for at least 48 hours after treatment. If you must go outside, wear protective clothing and apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher.
Avoid hot baths, showers, and saunas: Hot water can cause skin irritation and should be avoided for at least 48 hours after treatment.
Avoid using any products that can irritate the skin: This includes skincare products that contain retinol, glycolic acid, or benzoyl peroxide, as well as any harsh scrubs or exfoliants.
Keep the treated area clean and dry, avoid touching or scratching the treated area, and keep it clean and dry to minimize the risk of infection.
Apply a gentle moisturizer to the treated area to soothe any redness or irritation.
Do not shave or wax the treated area between treatments, as this can interfere with the hair removal process.
By following these post-procedure care tips, you can help ensure optimal results and minimize the risk of any potential side effects after laser hair removal. Be sure to follow any additional instructions provided by your practitioner for the best results.

After the procedure, the patient may experience some redness and swelling in the treated area, but this typically resolves within a few hours.
It is important to avoid sun exposure and follow proper aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and minimize the risk of complications.
