How Laser Hair Removal Works

Laser hair removalfurther hair growth

Laser Hair Removal Machine at Pulse Light Clinic

At Pulse Light Clinic, we use the GentleMAX Pro by Syneron Candela, a premium, FDA-approved laser on two wavelengths: the Alexandrite and Nd: Yag. These lasers damage the follicle enough to reduce hair regrowth without harming the surrounding tissue and skin. During the treatment, you will feel a slight, hot pricking sensation in the treated area; this is the heat hitting the hair root and destroying the blood flow feeding the root.

During each session, about 10% of your hair, which is in the anagen (growth) phase, will be permanently removed as it is attached to the root at the time of treatment. The remaining hair will be damaged and fall out within two weeks, keeping you hair-free between treatments. When the hair grows back, it will be lighter and finer, reducing the likelihood of ingrown hairs.

Our state-of-the-art cooling system, attached to the laser, blows cold air throughout the treatment to make your experience more comfortable. Following your treatment, you may experience slight redness and small bumps for a few hours. You will be provided cooling aloe vera gel to apply, which you can continue using at home.

The Main Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

Permanent Hair Reduction

Laser hair removalpermanent reduction

Ingrown Hair Removal

The laser is also highly effective at treating ingrown hairs. After 2-4 sessions, you will notice a significant, if not complete, removal of ingrown hairs. The bumps, redness and skin pigmentation caused by ingrown hairs will also clear up, leaving the skin clearer, brighter and smoother.

Cost-Effective

In the long run, laser hair removal is a cost-effective option for removing unwanted hair. While it may seem like a more significant expense upfront, laser hair removal is an investment and more economical than a lifetime of shaving or waxing.

Hirsutism (PCOS)

Hirsutism (PCOS) and facial hair in women is another condition that can be effectively treated with laser hair removal. The laser targets the dark pigment in the hair follicle, destroying it at the root. This results in permanent reduction and prevents new growth from occurring. Laser hair removal is also an excellent option for those who struggle with excessive or unwanted facial hair.

Pigmentation Treatment

Laser hair removal is not just limited to removing unwanted hair. It can also be used as a pigmentation treatment for those with dark spots, freckles, or uneven skin tone. The laser targets the melanin in the skin cells responsible for pigmentation, breaking it down and promoting new cell growth. This results in a more even skin tone and a reduced appearance of dark spots.

Hair Removal Experts – Why Choose Pulse Light Clinic?

Our clients have varying skin tones and hair types, so our practitioners are trained to the highest standards and can select the most accurate settings for each individual. We use the GentleMax Pro by Candela, featuring both Alexandrite and Nd:YAG wavelengths, ensuring effective and safe treatment for all skin types. Unlike other clinics in the UK, we conduct regular treatment reviews to ensure optimal settings as your hair changes colour and density.

Having treated more than 400,000 clients in London alone, our expertise reaches far and wide. Many of our clients even travel from Europe to get laser hair removal treatments with us.

Laser Hair Removal: Practitioners and Safety

At Pulse Light Clinic, our practitioners are highly experienced and certified in Level 4 laser safety training. Many of our practitioners have over a decade of experience treating clients of all skin types. Before starting treatment in any area, a skin test is conducted to ensure suitability. Our female technicians understand the sensitivity some clients may feel and are skilled at making your treatment as comfortable as possible.

Pulse Light Clinic: Best Laser Hair Removal London

At Pulse Light Clinic, we utilise the GentleMax Pro by Syneron Candela, an FDA-approved state-of-the-art laser technology. Constantly researching and refining our techniques, we strive to achieve optimal results in laser hair removal. Our specialised treatment plans address concerns like stimulated hair growth from other clinics and previous treatments. We are continually updating our equipment as it comes onto the market, ensuring customers are receiving the safest and fastest laser hair removal technology currently available. Syneron Candela technology allows Pulse Light Clinic to treat all skin types safely using the Alexandrite and Nd:Yag lasers, including Caucasian, Asian, Hispanic, Indian, Arab, Mixed race, Black Caribbean, and Black African skin types.

Laser Hair Removal Consultation

Before starting your laser hair removal journey, we will conduct a free consultation with one of our experienced and highly trained consultants. During the consultation, the consultant will explain the process and decide which laser will be used. They will test the appropriate settings in each area and answer any questions or concerns you may have. They will also tailor your treatment plan and help you decide the best time to start your journey based on any tan you may already have or future holidays you may need your consultant to work around.

Free Patch Test

The skin test will ensure you are suitable for laser hair removal (95% are eligible) and give you an idea of how the treatment will feel. The laser consultant will then advise you on the best course of treatment to achieve your goal. We typically recommend eight sessions if you are new to laser hair removal. The body sessions will initially be every 6-8 weeks, and the face every 3-4 weeks. Once you reach maintenance sessions, your treatments will be much more sporadic. Our FAQs section below covers many of the aspects covered in the consultation. Following the consultation, you can start the treatment as early as 48 hours later if you choose to go ahead.

Following Laser Hair Removal Treatment

The skin may be red immediately after the treatment, and the hair follicles where the skin has been treated may be raised and bumpy; this usually subsides within a few hours but can take up to 48 hours for some clients. Very few people experience itching a few days later as the hair is pushed out; antihistamines and steroid cream, as well as keeping the skin cool, can quickly alleviate this.

Major Reduction In Ingrown Hairs & Pigmentation

Following a laser hair removal treatment, the hair growth slows considerably. It usually takes 2-3 weeks, at which point the dead hair will fall out. New hair follicles will then grow, which are finer and more manageable. Only remove hair via shaving between appointments. After the second laser treatment, depending on skin and hair type, the area can already begin to look patchy as certain hair follicles empty. After 4-6 treatments, the hair should be significantly reduced, and after eight sessions, we can achieve up to 80% reduction on coarse hair; results may vary from person to person.

Laser Hair Removal Practitioners and Safety

At Pulse Light Clinic London, all of our practitioners are experienced and are certified in level 4 laser safety training. Many of our practitioners have over a decade of experience treating clients of all skin types. A skin test is always carried out before starting treatment in any area; this is to ensure your skin is suitable. All of our technicians are female and have seen many clients over the years and understand the sensitivity some clients may feel regarding certain areas of the body. However, all of our technicians have a lot of experience and will ensure to make your treatment as comfortable as possible.

Laser Hair Removal Pre and After-Care Instructions

Proper preparationPulse Light Clinic

Pre-Treatment Instructions

Things to Avoid:

  • Sun Exposure: Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for at least four weeks before your treatment. Sunburned skin cannot be treated.
  • Waxing, Plucking, and Electrolysis: Refrain from these hair removal methods for four weeks before treatment. Shaving is allowed as it does not remove the hair follicle.
  • Certain Skincare Products: Discontinue the use of retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) at least one week before treatment. Avoid products with bleaching agents as well.
  • Blood Thinners: Avoid taking aspirin, ibuprofen, and other blood thinners for 48 hours before the procedure, if possible, to reduce the risk of bruising. Consult your doctor before stopping any prescribed medication.

What to Do:

  • Shave the Treatment Area: Shave the area to be treated 24 hours before your appointment. This helps the laser focus on the hair follicle.
  • Cleanse the Skin: Ensure the treatment area is clean and free of makeup, lotions, deodorant, and other products.
  • Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your appointment to keep your skin hydrated and healthy.
  • Wear Loose Clothing: On the day of your treatment, wear loose-fitting clothing to avoid irritation on the treated area.

Post-Treatment Instructions

Things to Avoid:

  • Sun Exposure: Continue to avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for at least four weeks post-treatment. Use a high SPF sunscreen (50+) on treated areas if exposure is unavoidable.
  • Heat: Avoid hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, and strenuous exercise for at least 24-48 hours post-treatment to prevent irritation.
  • Harsh Skincare Products: Avoid products with retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, and exfoliants for at least one week after treatment.
  • Picking or Scratching: Do not pick or scratch the treated area. This can lead to scarring or infection.

What to Do:

  • Apply Soothing Creams: Use aloe vera gel or other soothing creams to calm the treated area. Follow any additional recommendations from your clinician.
    Use Gentle Skincare: Opt for gentle, fragrance-free skincare products to avoid irritation.
  • Moisturise Regularly: Keep the treated area moisturised to aid in the healing process.
  • Monitor for Side Effects: Mild redness and swelling are common and should subside within a few hours to days. Contact your clinician if you experience severe or prolonged side effects.

Following these pre and post-treatment instructions will help ensure the best results and minimise the risk of complications. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact Pulse Light Clinic for further guidance.
