Laser Hair Removal in Islamabad and Batkhela
Laser weakens the hair follicle over a course of sessions. One session will not finish the job and no honest clinic will tell you otherwise.
What it actually is
Light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair and converted to heat, which damages the follicle. It only works on hair that is in its growing phase, and at any moment only some of your hair is. That is why it takes a course spaced weeks apart.
Six to eight sessions is normal for most areas. Some people need more. Hormonal hair on the face often needs ongoing maintenance rather than a finish line.
The practical details
- How long it takes
- Ten minutes to an hour by area.
- Recovery
- Pink for a few hours.
- When you see it
- Reduction builds session by session.
- How long it lasts
- Long term reduction. Some maintenance is usual.
What it helps with
- Unwanted facial hair
- Underarms, legs and arms
- The bikini area
- Ingrown hairs from shaving and waxing
What it will not do
Laser targets pigment, so it does not work on white, grey or very fine blonde hair. If that is what you have, we will tell you at the consultation rather than sell you a course that cannot work.
Being honest with you
The word permanent gets used loosely in this industry. What laser reliably gives is long term reduction: much less hair, finer, slower. Expecting nothing ever again sets you up to be disappointed by a good result.
