Laser Hair Reduction

Laser Hair Reduction (LHR) is a temporary technique for removing unwanted body hair that enjoys considerable popularity. It operates by focusing high-intensity light energy on the pigment (melanin) in the hair follicles. The melanin absorbs the light and converts it into heat, which safely destroys the hair follicle, preventing future hair growth. It leads to a dramatic long-term decrease, resulting in finer and sparser hair in the re-treated region.

How the Treatment Works

LHR is a non-invasive procedure that involves more than one session, as the laser can only efficiently destroy hair follicles whose growth phase is active (Anagen phase).

• Targeting: The laser system emits a light that is selectively absorbed by the melanin in the hair root.
• Thermal Destruction: The thermal energy kills the ability of the hair follicle to produce more hair.
• Gradual Reduction: The percentage of hair in the Anagen phase at any given time is not maximum; therefore, to address all the cycles, a course of 6-8 sessions needs to be undertaken in a 4-8 week interval.
• Comfort:State-of-the-art devices also feature cooling capabilities to preserve the skin and make the procedure more comfortable.
