HAIR REMOVAL
How does Laser treatment work
The laser creates a beam of high-intensity light that penetrates into skin tissue where it delivers a controlled amount of therapeutic heat. Candela’s Patented Dynamic Cooling DeviceTM (DCDTM) technology protects the upper layers of your skin with a cooling burst of cryogen. Together, the long-pulsed laser and DCD cooling offer optimal treatment with minimal side effects.
About Hair Removal
Hair follicles are heated using the laser beam. This damages the hair follicle, which prevents the hair from growing again. Each treatment may take between 15 minutes to over an hour. Your eyes must be protected with specially designed goggles during the treatment and there may be a certain amount of pain.
The number of treatments needed depends on the area to be treated and the system which is used - different systems will work differently on different skin types and hair colours. In addition, the laser beam only works on hair follicles which are actively growing at the time of the treatment - and hair will continue to grow from follicles which are not active at the time of the treatment. This means that a course of treatments may be needed before the area is fully clear of hair. The duration of this course of treatments may be up to a year.
