Laser Hair

What is laser hair removal?

For many of us, hair removal is a part of everyday life. Whether you choose shaving or waxing, electrolysis or hair removal cream, the options can be painful, messy and ineffective, as well as time consuming.

Laser hair removal uses clinically proven diode laser technology to permanently1 remove unwanted hair, comfortably and effectively.

It involves sending a beam of laser to a group of hair follicles the beam has enough power to disable the root of the hair follicle without harming the skin.

At Dr Divya’s clinic we use Lumenis LightSheer® diode laser which is a USA manufactured FDA approved laser and is considered the world’s leading laser system.

Frequently asked questions?

Is the laser treatment safe?
Laser hair removal is an US Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) approved safe hair removal treatment. However the procedure needs to be performed under standard conditions in a laser room, using US FDA approved device and by a trained technician or therapist under the guidance of a qualified dermatologist.
How much does it cost?
The cost depends on the area being treated, however the prices for small areas like upper lip start at Rs 999. Before starting the treatment a complimentary patch test is given free of charge.
How does it compare with other hair removal methods
Epilation, Shaving, Waxing, plucking and hair removal creams are all temporary methods. They come with their own set of challenges – inconvenient, painful, skin irritation. Epilatory creams are quite toxic and work by changing the chemical makeup of the hair. This means that the hair falls out easily, but will regrow quickly as it has had no effect on the hair follicle.
Why are homebased laser hair removal services not recommended?
LHR requires a lser room setting where the sessions and laser treatment is planned based on assessment by a qualified dermatologist of skin type, direction of hair, hair growth etc. Also standard equipment require following a protocol in terms of input power, UPS supply , restricted access room and safety gear. Home based laser hair removal services are mostly performed by suboptimally trained therapists using sub-standard equipment which can work on home power requirements without the supervision of a doctor.
What are the side effects?
Mild irritation, redness and temporary discomfort may be caused. These signs and symptoms are Relieved within a few hours.
Are there any contraindications?
Procedure is generally well tolerated. However, following conditions are contraindicated- pregnancy, breast feeding, open wounds, vitiligo, herpes or cold sores, history of keloid scarring, recent waxing, plucking and recent sun tan.
How long does the process take?
Duration of treatment depends on the size of the area being treated. Treating the upper lip takes minutes. If you are having a large area like the back or legs treated, your treatment may last more than an hour.
How many sessions would I need?
The number of sessions needed are determined based on the type of hair, growth, skintype etc. However, 6-10 sessions are recommended to see final results. Most people see substantial results with each session.
Is it permanent?
LHR is not permanent. Some hair do regrow. However, the hair growth becomes thinner and lighter than before
How long before I see results?
The reported success rate is of 85-99% permanent hair reduction after just 6 to 10 treatments. The results also vary from patient to patient. The color and thickness of your hair, area treated, type of laser used, and color of your skin all affect the results. One can expect a 10% to 25% reduction in hair after the first treatment.
