Laser Hair
Removal Treatment in Ahmedabad

You will need a course of treatment as laser only works on the hair that are in the growing phase of the hair cycle, known as Anagen. The other two phases of the hair cycle, are called Catagen and Telogen, meaning the hair is either dormant or falling out; so the laser doesn’t impact it. As all of your hairs are in different phases at different times, you need several treatment sessions spread out over a number of weeks to ensure the laser ‘catches’ each of the hairs in their growing phase at some point.

The number of treatment sessions you will need is dependent on the area being treated; how thick and dense the hair is and your skin type is – it varies from person to person. You will need at least six-eight treatment sessions and it will also depend on how often you come back for your sessions. Coarse, thick hair will take longer to treat than fine hair, but your initial consultation with an experienced doctor will give you an idea of what to expect.

As with all treatments, it depends on the person and how sensitive they are, as well as the area being treated. We use Asclepion MeDioStar lasers, which has cooling device to decrease sensitivity during treatment. The sensation is similar to an elastic band being snapped against your skin, and because the laser is moving all the time, the sensation is well-tolerated by most people.

Laser Hair Reduction is a clinically tested treatment; FDA approved and has undergone rigorous trials to ensure patient safety and efficiency. All of the Radiant Clinic laser therapists are highly trained in performing the treatments; we take client comfort and safety very seriously and only use the highest-grade medical lasers. Before starting a course of treatment, we give each client a consultation. If you are having treatments with us and happen to go on holiday throughout your treatment course we will ask that you have another consultation when you return to ensure your skin is ready to resume treatment without the risk of pigmentation occurring.

Before
You can shave the day before treatment; not the day of, as shaving exfoliates the skin and makes it sensitive, which can make laser treatment a little bit uncomfortable. Don’t wax,because if you remove hair by waxing, the laser has nothing to target!

During the course of treatment
You may shave in between the sessions – DO NOT WAX as it will affect hair growth patterns and affect final results. Waxing or plucking completely removes the hair from the follicle, and for the laser to work there needs to be a hair present in the follicle. If you have waxed or plucked the treatment area you would have to wait for 2-4 weeks for follicles to produce a new hair.

After the laser course is finished
We would recommend you continue using laser until you achieve the level of hair reduction you’re happy with. Any remaining or reoccurring hair will be minimal; very fine in texture and light in colour.
