Unwanted hair is a common concern, and methods such as shaving and waxing often require regular maintenance. Laser hair removal is a professional treatment that uses controlled laser energy to target the pigment in hair follicles and help reduce unwanted hair growth.
The laser energy is absorbed by the hair and converted into heat, which can affect the hair follicle and gradually reduce hair growth. Because hair grows in different cycles, multiple treatment sessions are usually needed to achieve more noticeable and longer-lasting hair reduction.
What Can You Expect During Treatment?
-
The treatment area is assessed before the procedure to determine a suitable approach.
-
Controlled laser energy is applied to the targeted area.
-
You may feel a mild snapping or warming sensation during treatment.
-
Temporary redness or mild sensitivity can occur afterward and generally settles with appropriate care.
-
The number of sessions depends on factors such as hair thickness, growth cycle, skin type, and treatment area.
Laser hair removal can be performed on areas such as the face, underarms, arms, legs, and other suitable body areas. Results can vary between individuals, and maintenance sessions may sometimes be recommended.
Under the guidance of Dr. Seung-hwan Lee, treatment can be planned according to individual skin and hair characteristics, with appropriate pre- and post-treatment care to support the treatment process.
