What is Laser Hair Removal?

Say goodbye to shaving, waxing, and ingrown hairs — Laser Hair Removal is a safe and effective solution for long-term smooth skin. At Unova Clinic, we use advanced laser technology to deliver outstanding results with minimal discomfort and no downtime.

How It Works

Laser hair removal works by directing concentrated beams of light into the hair follicle. The melanin (pigment) in the hair absorbs the light, which generates heat and destroys the follicle without damaging the surrounding skin. This process significantly reduces future hair growth and leaves your skin smoother for longer.

Key Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

Long-Lasting Results

Reduces up to 90% of hair growth after a full course of sessions.

Precision and Safety

Targets only hair follicles without affecting the surrounding skin, minimizing side effects.

Speed and Efficiency

Each laser pulse takes less than a second and can treat multiple hairs at once — ideal for both small and large areas.

No Ingrown Hairs

Unlike waxing or shaving, laser hair removal reduces the risk of painful ingrown hairs and skin irritation.

Suitable for All Areas

Can be performed on the face, legs, underarms, bikini zone, back, chest, and more.

Minimal Discomfort and No Downtime

Modern systems use cooling technologies that make the procedure comfortable and allow you to return to your daily routine immediately.

Indications

Laser hair removal is recommended for those who:

Want to permanently reduce unwanted hair
Suffer from ingrown hairs or razor bumps
Have sensitive skin prone to irritation from shaving or waxing
Seek a time-saving and cost-effective alternative to regular depilation
Want smoother skin with a clean, even texture

Contraindications

Avoid the procedure if you have:

Pregnancy or breastfeeding
Skin infections, open wounds, or active dermatitis in the treatment area
Fresh suntan or recent exposure to tanning beds
Certain skin conditions (e.g., psoriasis, eczema) in active phase
History of keloid scarring or photosensitivity disorders
Use of photosensitizing medications

Frequently asked questions about Laser Hair Removal

01 How does laser hair removal work?

Laser hair removal uses concentrated light energy to target and destroy hair follicles. The pigment (melanin) in the hair absorbs the light, which damages the follicle and inhibits future hair growth.

02 Is laser hair removal permanent?

While not entirely permanent, laser hair removal significantly reduces hair growth. Most clients experience long-term smoothness after completing a full treatment course, with occasional maintenance sessions needed.

03 Is the treatment painful?

Most clients describe the sensation as a mild snap or rubber band flick. Modern laser technologies (like cooling systems or diode lasers) help minimize discomfort, making the procedure well-tolerated.

04 How many sessions will I need?

Typically, 6 to 8 sessions are needed for optimal results, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. The number of sessions depends on your hair color, skin type, and the area being treated.

05 Can I shave before or after laser hair removal?

Yes, you should shave 24 hours before your appointment. Avoid waxing, plucking, or using depilatory creams between sessions, as these remove the follicle the laser targets.

06 Are there any side effects?

Temporary redness, mild swelling, or sensitivity may occur, but they usually subside within a few hours. Following post-care instructions reduces the risk of irritation or pigmentation changes.

07 Is laser hair removal safe for all skin types?

Advanced laser systems are safe for most skin types, but your specialist will select the right wavelength and settings to suit your skin tone and hair type to ensure safety and effectiveness.
