Laser Treatments For Hair Removal Demystified
Removal of the body or facial hair using a laser is an innovative solution to men’s and women’s hair problems. This treatment uses a strong light beam penetrating the affected area to remove unwanted hair. The process, scientifically termed photothermolysis, works by absorption of heat from the laser by hair pigments or melanin. This subsequently destroys the hair follicles, thereby, preventing further hair growth. The laser beam is targeted to the identified affected area and hence does not harm the adjacent tissues or skin.
Hair growth cycles vary from individual to individual. As a result, the number of sessions required for effective hair removal differs and can vary between 6-8 treatment settings. Moreover, the hair colour also affects the effectiveness of the treatment. Therefore, this technique of hair removal is more suited to people with darker coloured hair as they have higher melanin for absorption.
Modern Laser Hair Removal Equipment
At Visible Changes, we understand getting any procedure done on your skin is the most important and stressful thing for you. Hence, we take every precaution to ensure the laser hair removal process is completely safe and comfortable for you.
Check the following off your list before choosing the laser hair removal clinic for yourself:
♦ Complimentary first consult
A professional clinic will offer you a complimentary consultation where you will be explained all about the procedure, and your skin type will be thoroughly assessed.
On your first visit at Visible Changes, our team will conduct a meticulous assessment of your skin type, hair colour, density and quality, along with an in-depth discussion to understand your requirements and expectations. This helps us to work up a suitable treatment plan customised to match your needs.

If you need a surgery, will you go to a GP to get it done? Likewise, laser hair removal should only be handled by qualified technicians and not beauticians.
Visible Changes pays special attention to the recruitment and training of our staff. All our laser hair removal technicians are fully qualified and undergo regular trainings to keep them abreast of latest industry guidelines and changes.

How To Prepare for your laser treatment
Take care of the following a few days before your treatment sitting to ensure the affected area is ready for the laser beams:
× Don’t bleach or wax the target area at least 4-6 weeks before the laser treatment.
× Don’t shave the target area at least 8 days before the day of treatment. For subsequent sittings, give a gap of at least two weeks between the day you shave and the day you are due for the sitting. This will help your technician get a better analysis of treatment effectiveness.
× Don’t apply deodorants, perfumes or other cosmetic products on the affected area on the day you are scheduled to get your laser done.
× Don’t go out in the sun for a prolonged duration at least 6 weeks before the treatment. Avoid sun exposure during the course of the treatment to prevent sunburns.
× Avoid taking photosensitive drugs at least a day before the laser treatment.
⇒ If you are prone to herpes, it is advisable to get anti-viral treatment prior to and after the laser hair removal process.
What Do I Do For Post Treatment Care
⇒ After the laser treatment, your skin is likely to feel warm and sensitive, for up to 12 hours. Apply a cold pack or Aloe Vera gel to help the affected area’s skin recover.
⇒ Apply high SPF sunscreen on the treated area to protect it from harmful UV rays.
× Don’t take bath in extremely hot water, this can further irritate the skin. Use lukewarm water on the treated area for 2 days after the treatment, and don’t scrub forcefully.
× Don’t apply cosmetics, or lotions and creams containing harmful chemicals, on the treated area.
× Avoid taking sunbathes for up to 2 weeks after the treatment.
