Procedure time: Laser treatment duration varies based on the area being treated, ranging from 20 minutes for small areas to around 140 minutes for full body. The specific treatment time will be determined by your healthcare provider or laser technician.

Downtime/Recovery time: There is typically no downtime required after laser hair removal treatments. You can resume your normal activities immediately after the procedure. However, it is common to experience some mild redness or sensitivity in the treated area, which usually subsides within a few hours to a day.

Pain level: Laser hair removal may cause some discomfort, often described as a sensation similar to the snapping of a rubber band against the skin. However, most people tolerate the treatment well, and some lasers have built-in cooling mechanisms to help minimize discomfort. With Triton’s cool contact technology, you may still feel a slight sensation, but the pain is immediately relieved. 

Number of sessions required: The number of sessions needed for laser hair removal varies depending on factors such as the treatment area, hair thickness, and individual response. Multiple sessions are typically required to target hair in different growth cycles. On average, 3 to 6 sessions may be needed for optimal results.

Results: Laser hair removal offers long-lasting hair reduction by targeting and inhibiting hair follicles. With a series of treatments, you can expect significant hair density and thickness reduction in the treated areas. Results vary based on factors like hair color, skin type, and hormones. Maintenance sessions may be needed for sustained results. Overall, laser hair removal provides a convenient and effective solution for smoother, hair-free skin.

Risks/Side effects: Laser hair removal carries some risks and side effects, including temporary skin irritation, redness, swelling, and mild discomfort. In rare cases, more severe effects like burns or changes in skin pigmentation may occur. It’s important to follow pre and post-treatment care instructions provided by our YHVH Medical Aesthetic Clinic.

Contraindications for treatment: Contraindications for laser hair removal include pregnancy, breastfeeding, active infections or skin conditions in the treatment area, open wounds or lesions, sunburned skin, recent use of certain medications or treatments that increase photosensitivity, and a history of keloid scarring or abnormal skin healing.

Booster/ Maintenance treatment: The number and frequency of these sessions may vary depending on individual factors such as hair growth patterns and treatment area. Generally, booster sessions can be scheduled every 6 to 12 months or as needed to target any regrowth or new hair follicles that may have become active.
