Laser Hair Removal

WHAT IS LASER HAIR REMOVAL?

Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses a concentrated beam of light (laser) to remove unwanted hair.

During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the tube-shaped sacs within the skin (hair follicles) that produce hairs. This inhibits or delays future hair growth.

Although laser hair removal effectively delays hair growth for long periods, it usually doesn't result in permanent hair removal in minimum sessions. Multiple laser hair removal treatments are required for initial hair removal, and maintenance treatments may be needed depending on the area being treated.

Laser hair removal is most effective for people who have dark hair, but it can be successfully used on all skin types.

8-12 sessions are recommended for clients who have never had laser hair removal before.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. This light energy is then converted into heat, which damages the hair follicle while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. Over multiple sessions, this process weakens the follicles, leading to a significant reduction in hair growth.

WHAT LASER MACHINES DO YOU USE FOR HAIR REMOVAL?

At Judy Aesthetics, we use the Candela GentleLase and UltraLux Pro laser systems, both offering safe, effective, and long-term hair reduction with minimal discomfort.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN Candela GentleLase AND UltraLux Pro?

• Candela GentleLase – Uses an Alexandrite laser (755nm), best suited for lighter skin tones (Fitzpatrick I-III). It provides precise, powerful treatments with a Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) for comfort.

• UltraLux Pro – A diode laser with adjustable wavelengths, making it effective for a wider range of skin tones (light to medium-dark) and hair types. It offers fast and comfortable treatments.

IS LASER HAIR REMOVAL PAINFUL?

Both machines are designed for comfort.

• Candela GentleLase features a cooling spray (DCD) that minimizes discomfort by cooling the skin before each pulse.

• UltraLux Pro has a built-in cooling system for a gentle treatment experience.

Most clients describe the sensation as a mild snapping feeling, but it is well tolerated.

HOW MANY SESSIONS DO I NEED?

For optimal results, we recommend 10 to 12 sessions, depending on your hair type, skin tone, and treatment area. Hair grows in cycles, and laser treatment is most effective during the active growth phase

HOW SHOULD I PREPARE FOR MY SESSION?

Before Treatment:

• Shave the area 24 hours before your session.

• Avoid sun exposure, fake tan, and active skincare products (like retinol or acids) for a few days before treatment.

After Treatment:

• Avoid heat, sun exposure, and exfoliation for 24-48 hours.

• Apply SPF 50 on exposed treated areas.
