Laser hair removal
Permanent hair removal with the Asclepion diode laser is an innovative, safe, and effective treatment for achieving long-lasting smooth skin.
This method is tailored to different skin and hair types, and thanks to advanced technology, results become visible after several treatments.
The Asclepion diode laser uses concentrated light energy targeted at the melanin in the hair follicle.
The laser energy is absorbed by the hair and converted into heat, permanently damaging the follicle and preventing the growth of new hairs. The procedure is highly precise, targeting only the follicles while leaving the surrounding skin untouched.
How long does the treatment take?
The treatment duration depends on the area being treated:
- Treating smaller areas (e.g., upper lip) takes only a few minutes.
- Treating larger areas (e.g., legs or back) can take between 30 and 60 minutes.
How many treatments are required?
For optimal results, typically 6 to 8 treatments are needed, with intervals of 4 to 8 weeks, depending on the treated area and skin type. Treatments are tailored to the hair growth phases, as the laser is most effective on hair in the active growth phase (anagen phase).
Indications for the treatment
This treatment is ideal for:
- Individuals seeking long-term removal of unwanted hair
- All skin types (with device parameter adjustments)
- Treating areas such as the face, legs, armpits, bikini zone, back, and other regions.
Contraindications
The treatment is not suitable for:
- Pregnant or lactating women
- Individuals using photosensitive medications
- Skin with active infections, wounds, or injuries in the treated area
- Individuals with very light or gray hair (due to lack of melanin)
- Recently tanned skin or those who use tanning beds.
How to prepare for the treatment?
- Avoid plucking hair with tweezers, waxing, or using an epilator for at least 4 weeks before the treatment.
- Shave the hair 1-2 days before your treatment appointment.
- Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 2 weeks before and after the treatment.
- Inform your doctor about any medications or health conditions before starting the treatment.
The procedure is quick and relatively painless, with a mild tingling or warming sensation in the treated area. Most patients observe a noticeable reduction in hair growth after several treatments, with long-lasting results that greatly minimize the need for daily hair removal.
The YAG laser is also highly effective in treating inflamed hairs and conditions like folliculitis, as it targets the follicles directly without causing skin irritation. For optimal results, a series of treatments, typically between six and ten sessions, is recommended to target hairs at different stages of growth.
There is no long-term recovery required after treatment, and patients can immediately resume their daily activities. This procedure not only boosts the skin's appearance but also delivers a lasting sensation of smoothness. Thanks to the advanced technology and expertise of the Sokol Clinic team, laser hair removal offers patients an effective, safe, and permanent solution, with minimal side effects.
