Laser hair removal is a method for permanent hair reduction in which a laser light is directed at the hair roots (follicles) to destroy or deactivate them. Here’s an overview of the most important aspects:

🧬 How does laser hair removal work?

  • The laser emits focused light of a specific wavelength.
  • This light is absorbed by the melanin (pigment) in the hair.
  • The light energy is converted into heat and destroys the hair follicle.
  • The darker the hair and the lighter the skin, the more effective the treatment is (due to higher contrast).

💡Suitable Body Areas

Laser hair removal is suitable for almost all body areas:
  • Face (e.g., upper lip, chin)
  • Legs
  • Armpits
  • Bikini area
  • Back
  • Chest

📅 Treatment duration & number of sessions

A session lasts 5 to 60 minutes, depending on the area.
Typically, 6–10 sessions are required, spaced 4–8 weeks apart.
Hair grows in cycles – the follicle is only sensitive to lasers during the growth phase (anagen phase).

⚠️ Risks and Side Effects

  • Redness, swelling, or itching after treatment (usually temporary)
  • Pigmentation changes (especially on darker skin)
  • Risk of burns if used improperly
  • Not suitable for tanned skin or very light/gray hair

✅ Benefits

  • Long-term hair reduction (up to 90%)
  • No more ingrown hairs
  • Smooth skin without skin inflammation (as often as after shaving)

💰 Costs (approximately)

  • Upper lip: from €100–150 per session
  • Legs: €200–400
  • Full body: €600–1,000+
