Laser hair removal

Modern technologies allow women to quickly and painlessly get rid of unwanted hair on different parts of the body. Laser hair removal is the best method of vegetation removal that exists today. The procedure allows you to forget about the discomfort of permanently growing or ingrown hairs forever and enjoy perfectly smooth skin.

You can make laser hair removal at the best price in Kyiv and with a guaranteed result in our clinic, MC Dobrobut.

After a course of procedures, hair growth stops for up to 10 years, so this method of combating vegetation is very popular among women. Lately, men are also increasingly opting for laser hair removal as an alternative to constant shaving.

How does laser hair removal work?

For skin treatment, machines are used that generate a laser beam of a certain wavelength and power. This concentrated light beam heats and destroys hair follicles, causing old hairs to fall out and new ones not to appear.

Radiation during laser hair removal selectively affects cells rich in the pigment melanin (it is he who is responsible for dark hair color), so light skin is not damaged. This feature of the action of the laser device explains the lower efficiency of laser hair removal for people with dark skin.

Please note that laser hair removal only works on hair in the growth phase. Therefore, it will take several sessions to get rid of the vegetation completely.

Benefits of the procedure

5 reasons why patients prefer laser hair removal:

Efficiency. The laser allows you to remove up to 10-20% of hair in one visit to the specialist, and the full course removes all vegetation from the problem area. Laser hair removal with a powerful diode laser with individual settings is suitable even for fine hair and sensitive skin.
Absolute security. During the laser hair removal procedure, light rays penetrate shallowly into the skin, only to the level of the hair follicles. Therefore, there is no risk of overheating and damage to other body tissues.
No side reactions. For the procedure, no chemical compounds and preparations are used that can cause an allergic reaction on the skin. The gel guide, which is applied before epilation, does not contain harmful components.
Ease of post-procedure care. The procedure allows you to forget about the need to scrub the skin, use products for ingrown hairs, and soothing after-shave creams.
Saving finance. The cost of one procedure may seem a little high to the patient, but the price of laser hair removal in Kyiv is much more profitable than waxing or sugaring. When exposed to a laser, you get the effect for many years after one course, while other methods require a visit to the master at least once a month.

To make the hair removal procedure easy and effective, you need to choose a good clinic and a competent specialist. Turning to dubious laser hair removal salons, the patient risks encountering low-quality, outdated equipment and non-compliance with the protocol of the technique.

Equipment

In the Dobrobut clinic, the innovative Leaseir MHR Single diode laser is used for the procedure, which has several attachments for treating different areas of the face and body. The device allows you to carry out laser hair removal at an affordable cost and with maximum results after each session. It provides a record speed of epilation without loss of power: for example, a double handpiece allows you to treat your entire legs in just 15-20 minutes.

Other benefits of Leaseir MHR Single laser hair removal:

high power of the device for complete removal of actively growing hair;
cryoanesthesia, which eliminates the likelihood of any painful sensations during the procedure;
several options for the wavelength of the laser beam to treat different skin;
AUTO mode for patients with thin dark or brown hair and light skin color - this is the most common phototype among people who come for laser hair removal in Ukraine;
SP mode for working with especially sensitive patients and people who have residual traces of sunburn.

Indications

The procedure is carried out at the request of the patient, who wants to quickly and permanently get rid of hair in different areas of the body. The most popular in Kyiv is laser hair removal of armpits, legs, intimate area, and mustache growth zone on the face. The Leaseir MHR Single laser can be used in all areas of the face and body.

The hardware method of hair removal is especially recommended for people with the following problems:

ingrown hairs after shaving or waxing;
thin and sensitive skin that reacts with irritation to most types of depilation;
lack of time for frequent epilation;
the need to always look 100%, for example, when working on television, in the beauty industry.

Contraindications

Although the procedure is safe and the price of laser hair removal is affordable for most patients, it has several limitations. They are divided into absolute and relative. There are few absolute contraindications. These include light fluffy and gray hair, which does not lend itself to the action of laser beams, as well as diabetes mellitus, malignant neoplasms, varicose veins in the treated areas of the body.

Relative contraindications for laser hair removal:

fresh tan;
wounds, ulcers, and abrasions at the site of laser exposure;
acute skin diseases and exacerbations of chronic dermatoses;
active herpes infection on the skin;
fever, acute respiratory illness;
pregnancy and lactation;
taking medications that increase photosensitivity.

Moles do not interfere with laser hair removal. Before the procedure, they are painted over with a special white pencil to protect them from exposure to light rays.

Preparing for the procedure

For laser hair removal in Kyiv to justify its cost and show a good result, the patient needs to start preparing 3 weeks before the first visit to the clinic. You must follow these rules:

21 days before the procedure, stop removing hair with wax, sugar paste, or an epilator (you can use a razor);
refrain from tanning on the beach or in a solarium 2 weeks before the session;
3 days before laser hair removal, do not apply lotions with alcohol to the skin, do not scrub and chemical peels;
12-24 hours before visiting a specialist, shave the skin and do not process it with anything.

How is laser hair removal performed?

The procedure is carried out according to the classical protocol, regardless of the location of the treated area. First, a specialist examines the skin for rashes and other contraindications, and, if necessary, paints over moles. Then the patient is put on protective goggles to prevent damage to the retina of the eye by light flashes. A guide gel applies to the skin, after which it is treated with the selected handpiece of the Leaseir MHR Single device.

The cost of laser hair removal does not include additional anesthesia, since the device itself already has the function of cooling and anesthesia. If you want to be on the safe side and have local cutaneous anesthesia, notify your doctor when making an appointment.

To completely get rid of vegetation, it may take from 6 to 12 procedures with an interval of 1-1.5 months between them. It depends on the thickness, thickness, and color of the hair, individual reaction to the procedure. Therefore, at the first visit, the doctor can only name the approximate price of laser hair removal.

Post-procedural care

To restore the skin after the procedure to be quick and comfortable, you need to follow these recommendations:

during the day, do not wet the epilation site, and then take a shower with warm water, without using coarse washcloths and scrubs;
in the early days, avoid taking a hot bath, so as not to steam the skin;
use moisturizing milk or body care cream as recommended by a specialist;
refuse alcohol-containing cosmetic products;
wear loose clothing made from natural materials, after epilation of the intimate area, choose soft cotton underwear;
do not visit pools with chlorinated water, baths, and saunas for 2 weeks.

Do not forget that you cannot sunbathe between laser hair removal sessions. Ignoring this rule can cause burns and hyperpigmentation. If you are taking a course in the summer, it is advisable to choose closed clothing or apply a cream with good SPF protection to the epilated areas of the body.
