What is Laser Hair Removal?

Is laser hair removal permanent?

The Laser Hair Removal treatment prevents hair growth by destroying and eliminating the follicle permanently.

The inactive follicles will eventually reach the anagen phase and, thus, will be eliminated in the following sessions. Effectively removing unwanted hair with the laser treatment on most areas of the body. This leads to permanent hair removal.

How the Elysion-Pro™ laser removes hair?

Elysion-Pro works using the selective photothermolysis principle. This consists in transmitting the LASER beam while affecting the melanin (which gives hair its color) and destroying the follicle without damaging the skin in the process.

Elysion-Pro™ works with the exclusive “crystal freeze” system. This is a cooling system based on TRT (thermal relaxation time), which is the time necessary for skin to recover its original temperature after the application of the LASER beam. This exclusive system works by maintaining a constant temperature of 6ºC at the tip of the hand piece, producing a pleasant sensation on the skin during hair removal. Even the most sensitive skin can benefit from this system, as it has been designed not to cause any discomfort or ski damage.

More about permanent Hair Removal for men and women

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive treatment that uses a laser to target the hair follicles and prevent hair growth. The laser energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle, which damages the follicle and prevents it from producing hair. This process can be repeated over multiple sessions to achieve permanent hair removal.

One of the main benefits of laser hair removal is that it is highly effective. It can target even the most stubborn hairs, and the results are long-lasting. With traditional hair removal methods such as shaving, waxing, or threading, the hair will grow back within a few days or weeks. However, with laser hair removal, the results can last for months or even years.

Facial hair removal is a common concern for both men and women. For men, facial hair removal can be especially challenging due to the coarse texture of facial hair. Laser facial hair removal is a great option for men who are looking for a long-term solution to unwanted facial hair. With laser facial hair removal, the laser can target individual hairs without damaging the surrounding skin. This makes it a safer and more effective option than other facial hair removal methods such as waxing or threading.

When it comes to hair removal for men, lazer hair removal is an excellent option. Men tend to have thicker and coarser hair than women, making traditional hair removal methods less effective. With laser hair removal, the laser can penetrate deeper into the skin, targeting the hair follicles at the root. This makes it an effective option for permanent hair removal for men.

Another benefit of lazer hair removal is that it is a comfortable and relatively pain-free treatment. The laser emits a cooling sensation during the treatment, which can help to reduce any discomfort or irritation. This makes it a popular option for those who are sensitive to pain or discomfort.

In summary, laser hair removal is a highly effective method of hair removal that can benefit both men and women. It is a great option for facial hair removal, permanent hair removal, and hair removal for men. With its long-lasting results and relatively pain-free treatment, laser hair removal is a popular choice for those looking for a permanent solution to unwanted hair. If you are considering laser hair removal, be sure to book a consultation.
