About Laser Hair Removal for Women

At Remederm we use Sharplight Omnimax S4 for Laser Hair Removal for clients looking for permanent hair reduction. Laser hair removal can result in permanent hair reduction. This means that you may never have to shave or wax again!

Remederm will exceed your expectations with our pain free laser hair removal. Once our team determines which service is right for you, the treatment is completely personalized to fit your unique needs and ensure the best possible results. Laser hair removal solutions for skin types 1 to 5, praised as highly effective yet surprisingly comfortable. Hair removal using DPC technology Dynamic Pulse Control™ (DPC) is a proprietary light-based technology used for permanent reduction of unwanted hair and one of its clearest advantages is that it has a shorter treatment period in comparison to traditional IPLs. The treatment is pain-free, equipped with a Sapphire Cool Tip cooling to -8 to ensure you don't feel heat.

Laser hair removal is a popular cosmetic procedure that employs laser technology to permanently reduce or eliminate unwanted hair from various body parts. Here's a breakdown of what you can expect during and after each session:

1. Consultation: Before the treatment begins, a Remederm Technician will assess your skin type, hair color, and suitability for the procedure. They will discuss pre-session preparations and provide instructions for the process.

2. Pre-session preparations: To ensure optimal results, it is necessary to avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and certain hair removal methods like waxing or plucking leading up to the treatment.

3. During the session: You will be provided with protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the laser. The technician will use a handheld laser device that emits a concentrated beam of light onto the targeted hair follicles. The laser's energy is absorbed by the hair follicle pigment, effectively destroying them while minimizing damage to the surrounding skin. The sensation during treatment varies from person to person but is generally described as painless.

4. Post-session care: Temporary side effects like redness, swelling, or mild discomfort in the treated area may occur after each session. These typically subside within a few hours to a couple of days. Applying a cool compress or aloe vera gel can help alleviate any discomfort.

5. Hair shedding: In the weeks following the session, the treated hairs will gradually fall out. Plucking or waxing should be avoided between sessions, although gentle shaving or trimming is usually allowed.

6. Number of sessions: Multiple laser hair removal sessions are typically needed to achieve lasting results. The number of sessions depends on factors such as hair color, thickness, and the target area. On average, most individuals require 6-8 sessions spaced several weeks apart to effectively target hair growth cycles.

7. Maintaining results: Although laser hair removal can provide long-term hair reduction, it does not guarantee permanent removal. Periodic maintenance sessions may be necessary to manage any regrowth in the future.

By following these guidelines and consulting with a qualified professional, you can have a successful and effective laser hair removal experience.
