Laser hair removal is one of the most commonly requested aesthetic treatments today. Despite its popularity, many people still have questions and concerns before starting the procedure. At Derm Saga Skin and Hair Clinic, patient education is a priority. This comprehensive FAQ guide addresses the most common questions about laser hair removal to help you make an informed decision.
1. What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a dermatological procedure that uses focused light energy to target and damage hair follicles, reducing hair growth over time.
2. Is Laser Hair Removal Permanent?
Laser hair removal results in long-term hair reduction, not complete permanent removal. Most patients experience significant and lasting reduction after completing recommended sessions.
3. How Many Sessions Are Required?
Typically, 6 to 8 sessions are required, spaced 4–6 weeks apart for the face and 6–8 weeks apart for the body. The exact number depends on hair growth cycle, area treated, and individual response.
4. Is Laser Hair Removal Painful?
Most patients describe the sensation as mild discomfort, similar to a rubber band snap. Advanced cooling systems at Derm Saga Skin and Hair Clinic help minimize discomfort.
5. Is It Safe for All Skin Types?
Yes. With advanced laser technology and expert dermatologists, laser hair removal is safe for most Indian skin tones when performed correctly.
6. Are There Any Side Effects?
Temporary redness or mild swelling may occur, usually subsiding within a few hours. Serious side effects are rare when treatment is done by qualified professionals.
7. Can Laser Hair Removal Be Done on Any Body Part?
Yes. Common areas include face, underarms, arms, legs, bikini line, chest, back, and abdomen.
8. What Pre-Treatment Care Is Needed?
Patients are advised to shave the area 24 hours before treatment and avoid waxing, threading, or plucking for at least 4 weeks prior.
9. What Post-Treatment Care Is Required?
Avoid sun exposure, hot showers, and harsh skincare products for a few days. Sunscreen is essential for treated areas.
10. Who Should Avoid Laser Hair Removal?
Pregnant women, individuals with active skin infections, or certain medical conditions may need to postpone treatment. A consultation at Derm Saga Skin and Hair Clinic helps determine eligibility.
