Procedure Preparation

The targetted area for hair removal is trimmed/shaved and a cooling gel is applied to the area to prevent heat injury from the laser light. Special devices with cooling tip may also be used to achieve the same.

How does a laser work in reducing unwanted hair growth?

Lasers emit an intense light beam of a specific wavelength that gets absorbed by the melanin of the actively growing targeted hair. The light energy heats the melanin and subsequently thermally damages the concerned tissues without harming the surrounding healthy skin. As a result, the targeted hair falls out and further, no new hair growth takes place. Even if there is growth, the hair is fine and barely visible.

The laser hair removal technologies used in SB Aesthetics:

Luminis Light Sheer- It is a globally renowned, cutting-edge diode laser technology with a wavelength of either 805nm or 1060nm. It is a precise laser technology for hair removal in Gurgaon that enables safe and effective unwanted hair removal of all skin and hair types. This is a high-speed vacuum-assisted technology that offers a unique pain reduction mechanism and shows a rapid coverage rate without a numbing agent or soothing gel. At lower fluence, it is ideally used for quick and comfortable removal of large areas of unwanted hair.

Reveal VEGA- It is a 2-D laser diode technology having dual wavelengths (755 and 810nm). This laser device is available in a standard spot size of 2cm. Thus, it can be used for quick treatments. Full body laser hair reduction with Reveal Vega is possible in just 2 hours. The desired results can be seen in 5-7 sessions done after every 1-2 months, depending upon the sensitivity of the skin and hair. It can virtually painlessly treat the targeted area and is safe for use on all skin types. It works best for sensitive areas like intimate areas.

Laser Hair Removal Recovery

After the procedure the area will remain red and irritated for a few hours. This redness may last upto two days. After the procedure a topical cream will be applied to the skin. Sun protection is mandatory after the laser because the skin is much more sensitive to the sunlight after the laser. Mild scabbing may be seen which should in the worst circumstances settle down in a week's time.

Suitable candidates for laser hair reduction

Mostly, everyone who is interested in laser hair reduction is a suitable candidate for the treatment. The qualifying criteria depend upon the hair and skin type/colour, overall health status, and trends for body hair and grooming. Those who have active skin conditions, allergies, infections, permanent tattoos, or autoimmune diseases are not suitable candidates for laser hair reduction. Pregnant and nursing mothers are not advised to undergo this procedure.

Laser hair reduction in Gurgaon at SB Aesthetics is successful for people with any skin tone, hair texture, and density. That’s because it uses sophisticated lasers whose settings can be adjusted as per the combinations of natural skin and hair colour.

Number of sessions

Getting rid of undesirable hair on the face or body through lasers isn’t a quick process. The laser hair reduction treatment requires multiple sessions to finally stop the unwelcomed hair growth in targeted sites. These sessions are scheduled a few weeks apart.

As lasers work only on actively growing hair, multiple laser sessions are needed so that maximum unwanted hair gets in the growth phase. A definite reduction in hair growth is possible in 6-8 laser sessions. Depending upon the hair growth of the treated patients, there may be follow-up laser sessions required every few months. The exact number of laser sessions needed depends upon hormonal influences, the colour and coarseness of the hair, and the size and location of the targeted area.

Laser Hair Removal Results

One may notice some hair that appears on the surface of the skin within seven to ten days following treatment. These hairs are usually those that have fallen out of hair follicles impaired during treatment. However, one will notice some new hair growth within a few weeks, as hair follicles that were inactive during treatment re-enter the active growth phase. Therefore, one will most likely undergo multiple treatments spaced approximately four to eight weeks apart. Although the number of treatments varies by individual, most individuals receive approximately six to eight treatments.

The results from a laser hair removal procedure depend on the skin tone, the hair type, and the growth phase of the hair being treated. It is important to realize that laser hair removal will likely not prevent hair from growing completely. However, laser hair removal can reduce hair growth significantly over time giving the skin the smooth appearance that one desires.

Aftercare after laser hair reduction

Here are some of the laser expert-prescribed aftercare tips that the candidates must follow after undergoing every laser hair reduction session:

Avoid taking hot showers or baths or going for saunas and steam rooms. Excessive heating of the treated area can be irritating.
Do not get indulged in strenuous physical activities for the initial 48 hours as these can raise the body temperature and heat the treated area more.
Refrain from the use of harsh chemicals or any skin irritants on the treated area right after the treatment as the skin is still vulnerable to getting irritated. Wait for at least 24 hours to apply makeup post each laser session.
Do not expose the treated area directly to the sun’s harmful UVA and UVB rays for at least a week. If it’s important to step out in the daytime, then cover the treated areas with sun-protective clothing and generously apply sunscreen of at least SPF 30 and above.
