Medical laser hair removal utilizes selective photothermolysis to target melanin within the hair bulb while preserving the surrounding epidermis. Our clinic combines 755 nm Alexandrite for fair skin, 810 nm Diode for deep follicles, and 1064 nm Nd:YAG for darker or tanned skin tones to prevent post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Who is it suitable for
- Men and women seeking safe, long-term reduction of unwanted facial and body hair
- Patients suffering from ingrown hairs (folliculitis) and razor irritation
Techniques
755 nm Alexandrite & 810 nm Diode Protocol
Targets both coarse and deep-seated hair follicles with high melanin absorption on fair to olive skin.
1064 nm Nd:YAG Dark-Skin Safety Mode
Bypasses epidermal melanin to target follicular vasculature, preventing burns and pigmentation on dark skin.
Process
- 1. Dermatological Phototype & Hair Analysis — Skin tone, pigmentation history, and hair caliber are assessed to calibrate wavelength and fluence.
Frequently asked questions
Does laser hair removal cause skin pigmentation or spots?
When the correct wavelength is matched to your Fitzpatrick skin type and SPF 50+ is used post-session, hyperpigmentation does not occur.
