How It Works

Laser Hair Removal, when performed by a skilled Skin Care professional, is a very effective and safe procedure in eliminating unwanted hair.

Based on a person’s skin type/color,  the appropriate wavelength and energy is selected to disable the hair follicles. 

During Laser Hair Removal treatments, a beam of gentle light energy passes through the skin and is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle and hair shaft. In the case of Hair Removal, the target pigment or chromophore is the melanin; melanin is that substance that gives our skin and hair its color. When the hair follicle absorbs the laser energy, it heats up to the point where it gets damaged and subsequently unable to produce new hair. 

Hair follicles go through 3 stages of growth, anagen, catagen, telogen. The anagen phase, or growing/active phase is when the hair follicle absorbs the most energy which makes the Laser Hair Removal treatment the most effective. Hair are constantly changing stage this is why it’s necessary to receive multiple Laser Treatments in order to catch the hair during their active growth phase.
