LASER EPILATION

Laser epilation is preferred because it is permanent and healthy. Laser epilation, which provides permanent removal of unwanted hair, regardless of male or female, is painless compared to classical methods. It is highly effective and harmless when done with the right devices and by experts. The area to be applied, skin type and color, and hair structure are examined by the experts, and what kind of device to use is selected and the person is informed about how many sessions the hair will be removed. The main purpose of laser epilation is to destroy the hair root, not the hair. With the application of laser beams to the hair root, the function of the stem cell that provides the development of the hair is intentionally impaired. Thus, the hair is prevented from reappearing on the skin’s surface.

How does laser epilation work?
The skin surface is scanned with the rays thrown on the skin by the head of the laser epilation device. The rays reach the skin of the person being held by a substance called melanin, which gives the hair its color. Thus, the energy transmitted by the laser turns into heat energy on the hair surface. The heat transmitted from the hair to the hair root causes the hair root to be destroyed in a very short time. With the deformation of the stem cells in the hair root in this way, the person gets rid of the hair in the relevant area forever.

How many sessions does laser hair removal take?
Laser epilation, which is effective in both men and women, is the removal of unwanted body hair that causes aesthetic anxiety with a laser device. The effectiveness of laser epilation varies according to the person’s physical and hormonal structure, skin and hair color, and the hardness of the hair in the area to be treated. Areas such as the underarms, lower legs, and bikini area may take 4 to 8 sessions, while areas such as the face, arms, and back may take 6 to 12 sessions. In other words, the substance called melanin, which gives color to body hair, ensures better absorption of laser beams. Therefore, dark body hair is more exposed to the sudden heat generated by laser epilation. The easy handling of the laser beam allows this type of hair follicle to be destroyed more quickly. This is the reason why light-colored body hair is more difficult to remove with laser epilation compared to dark-colored ones.

Are there any side effects of laser epilation?
Since the laser used in laser epilation only targets the hair follicles without damaging the skin and sweat glands, it is extremely safe to use. However, some pain may be felt during the application. In addition to other epilation applications, slight redness and edema may occur after laser epilation applications, which can be considered painless. Steroid-containing creams applied by your specialist quickly relieve these complaints. In addition, although side effects such as thin crust, hyper, and hypopigmentation in the vesicles are seen, all of them are temporary complications.
