What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser Hair Removal is a medical non-invasive procedure which employs a pulse of laser to eliminate, reduce, or redesign unwanted hair selectively. The treatment is performed by a licensed healthcare provider who operates sophisticated medical equipment, which generates medical-grade laser beams.
The laser intensity or pulse wave-length is selected based on the patient’s needs and skin type to ensure the best results. Depending on the number of areas to treat, the session will take from 20 to 60 minutes to complete. It is essential to realize that during the treatment, your healthcare provider will expend all the time needed to get the desired effects. The procedure is relatively painless, and patients can resume their daily activities immediately afterward.
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Full Body Laser Hair Removal is achieved through the damage or destruction of each hair follicle, or follicular unit. This selective destruction of the follicular unit is done without damaging the surrounding skin. To get a better idea of the process, the reader needs to know some basic concepts:
- Melanin is a natural pigment responsible for giving color to the hair and skin. Melanin pigment can absorb and concentrate light.
- Melanin is present inside each human hair. Therefore, medical-grade laser targets melanin. The laser beam is a high energy light that can increase the temperature inside the hair cells.
- The medical equipment emits or generates a light that is absorbed and concentrated by melanin, heating the hair shaft inside the hair follicle, causing its destruction.
- The heat destroys hair bulbs preventing hair from regrowing. This process is called photo-dermolisis, and it is the principle behind the Laser hair removal.

How Is the Laser Hair Removal Procedure Performed?
During a consultation at your laser clinic, a healthcare provider and laser specialist will examine your concerned areas. After answering all your questions, evaluate your hair and skin type, and setting the treatment goals a Patch Test will be performed to ensure that your skin can tolerate the procedure without any irritation or color changes. After reading the patch test and corroborating the patient’s fitness for treatment, the laser specialist can make an appointment for the procedure. In like manner, the procedure may be performed immediately after test evaluation. The steps for the test or the treatment are similar. The difference is the treated area size and time required.
- A small area of covered skin will be selected to test the laser beam.
- The laser specialist will clean and disinfect the skin.
- Depending on the hair length and technique, it may require either cutting or shaving it or waiting for hair to grow.
- The laser specialist will set laser frequency and potency according to the patient’s skin type, color, and individual characteristics, as well as, color, location, and thickness of the hair.
- The patient’s eyes will be protected with a pair of special glasses. In addition, the specialist will instruct the patient to close the eyes during laser beam emission.
- The laser specialist will take a hand-held laser instrument called laser ward, which is the handset of the equipment and place it directly over the skin to treat it. This step will be repeated several times until the entire skin area is treated. Simultaneously, a cooling device on the tip of the handset will cool the surrounding skin. Furthermore, a cooling gel may be applied to protect the skin.
- The laser specialist will clean the skin and apply sunscreen.
