LASER HAIR REMOVAL: A SAFE SOLUTION FOR GETTING RID OF HAIR

This reduces the risk of skin burns or irritation, making laser a safe and reliable option for hair removal.

Finally a solution against ingrown hairs

Permanent laser hair removal delivers excellent results on areas with ingrown hairs. As the hairs are destroyed gradually, this type of lesion will disappear naturally over the course of sessions.

Finally, laser hair removal can also be more economical in the long term. Although the initial cost may seem higher than other hair removal methods, laser hair removal sessions reduce hair regrowth significantly.

This means fewer regular visits to the beautician or the use of expensive hair removal products over the long term.

To recapitulate, the advantages of laser hair removal include long-lasting results, higher precision and greater efficiency, plus long-term savings. These advantages make it an attractive option for those who want to get rid of unwanted hair in an effective and practical manner.

PRINCIPLE OF LASER HAIR REMOVAL

This non-invasive procedure uses a concentrated beam of light to zero in on hair follicles and destroy them.

The energy from the laser is absorbed by the melanin present in the hair. This heats and damages them selectively, without affecting the surrounding skin.

In other words, the light from laser hair removal is transformed into heat to eliminate the hair root. The bulb is thus eradicated, and the hair can no longer grow back. 

The number of sessions required depends on several factors and the physiology of each person.

Permanent laser hair removal is for both men and women who want to get rid of hair for good.

We offer laser hair removal sessions for all areas of the body for aesthetic or therapeutic purposes (ingrown hairs, folliculitis, etc.) in all our Epilia centres.

CAUTION AND INFORMATION: WHAT TYPE OF LASER?

Before choosing a laser treatment, it is important to find out about the hair removal technique or even the type of laser used.

Not all lasers are created equal. Some are not suitable for all hair or skin colours, while others can be ineffective over the long term, or even hazardous to health.

Caution and information are therefore essential.

LASER HAIR REMOVAL AND INTENSE PULSED LIGHT (IPL) HAIR REMOVAL: WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES? WHICH ONE TO CHOOSE?

Often mistaken for one another, laser hair removal and Intense Pulsed Light hair removal are two very different methods in terms of both safety and effectiveness.

IPL hair removal uses several types of light.

They are weaker and less targeted than laser hair removal, which considerably reduces their effectiveness. The results are consequently short-lived and transitory, since they only weaken the hair follicle.

The laser, on the other hand, emits a more intense and selective beam of light that destroys the hair bulb to deliver truly permanent hair removal.
