Lasertech Clinic uses only Class 4 Medical Lasers for Hair Removal. Our technology allows for more diversity in treating individual requirements resulting in faster, more effective treatment results. Suitable for both Men and Women, and to all areas of the body.

Lasers are precise instruments that can be adjusted to exact parameters to disable the hair follicle. Unlike painful hair-by-hair treatments like electrolysis, laser technology uses a wide beam that treats a larger area more comfortably, providing longer lasting results than waxing, depilatory creams and other temporary methods.

For a more permanent solution, Laser Hair Removal is at the forefront of providing long lasting relief for those with excess, hormonal or unwanted hair and now, new technology enables us to treat both Men and Women with all hair colors and skin types.

Before    After

Laser Hair Removal is the #1 non-invasive aesthetics treatment available today. While there are many methods to eliminate unwanted hair, very few can eliminate hair regrowth while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged and photoepilation is quickly becoming the most popular. Lasers and light sources use the principle of selective photothermolysis to eliminate hair and its potential regrowth without damaging the surrounding skin. During a laser hair removal treatment, light passes through the skin and is absorbed by the melanin in the hair shaft. This absorption raises the temperature of the hair follicle and thermally destroys the cells responsible for regrowth.

Lasertech Clinic provides you with two great options for laser hair removal, both providing virtually pain-free hair removal technology.

Key advantages for patients

* Comfortable treatment with little to no irritation
* Effective permanent reduction of hair
* Little to no chance of side effects

There is a better solution for removing unwanted hair

You may be surprised to learn that virtually your entire body is covered with hair. Because most of this hair is fine & pale, it usually isn´t visible to the naked eye. But when darker, coarser hair appears in places which make you feel uncomfortable − like on the face, neck, abdomen, breasts, legs or underarms in women or on the shoulders, chest & back in men, it may be time to consider hair removal with the LightSheer™ diode laser.

Understanding hair removal

In the past, the usual remedies for unwanted hair included plucking, shaving, waxing or chemical depilatories. Some are painful, some are messy and all are temporary. For long-term hair removal, electrolysis is popular & effective, but it is a time consuming procedure, which can be painful and is useful only in removing hair in small areas. During electrolysis, an electric current passes through a needle to destroy each individual hair root. It typically takes months and numerous regular visits to clear even small areas, like the upper lip. Laser hair removal is a more effective solution. The Lightsheer™ diode laser is a state-of-the-art system specially designed to remove unwanted hair faster, with less discomfort and more reliably than other methods.

About Lightsheer™ laser treatment

A laser produces a beam of highly concentrated light. The light emitted by the Lightsheer™ diode laser is well absorbed by the pigment located in the hair follicles. During the procedure, the laser pulses for a fraction of a second, long enough to heat up the hair and significantly impede the follicle´s ability to re-grow. This process also treats numerous hair follicles simultaneously. Therefore Lightsheer™ is appropriate for treating even the largest areas of the body quickly and effectively.

An important part of the procedure is the cooling of the skin. A special contact- cooling hand piece allows your physician to treat even the most sensitive skin, including ethnic & tanned skin. It protects and cools the upper layer of the skin before, during & after each laser pulse while directing the laser energy to the hair root.

What can you expect?

The length of a laser treatment may last anywhere from a few minutes to an hour or more, depending on the size of the area being treated. It is important to know that the hairs in the active phase (referred to as anagen) are most effected by the laser. As all hairs are not in this phase at the same time, more than one treatment will be necessary to achieve the best result.

The laser treatment itself may cause some discomfort. Most patients tolerate the procedure well, but because some areas of the body are more sensitive than others, topical anaesthesia can be an option.

The appearance of the treated area immediately following treatment will vary from patient to patient depending on the extent of the procedure & skin type. Side effects, if any are minor and may include redness & swelling around the hair follicle, which are, in fact desired clinical results & indicate that the follicle has responded to treatment. Most people return to normal activity right away. We will be happy to tell you more about your treatment, possible side effects & what results you can expect during your consultation.

	Hair's active growth phase is called Anagen, the hair contains an abundance of melanin. Hairs in this phase are most affected by treatment.
	Catagen is the regression phase when the lower part of the hair stops growing but is not shed and the follicle is reabsorbed.
	The resting phase is called Telogen, during which the old hair falls in preparation for the development of new hair.
