Laser hair removal in Poznan

Pigmented hair on the face and body is a common problem, but how to deal with it? In the past, traditional methods such as shaving, waxing, or sugar paste were used to remove such hair. Some people also tried to remove it with an epilator or depilatory cream. However, these methods are often painful, can damage the skin, and can cause unpleasant effects such as folliculitis, blackheads, or ingrown hairs. In addition, the results of these methods are often temporary.

Fortunately, modern laser cosmetology offers a better alternative to classical methods. Laser hair removal can remove up to 90% of unwanted hair if you complete the full recommended course of procedures. Maintenance sessions once a year will help to maintain the achieved result. The laser hair removal procedure is practically painless and does not damage the skin, unlike shaving, sugaring or waxing. This method has no side effects and does not cause allergic reactions.

The LaserHouse Center in Poznan offers laser hair removal services. Here you can get rid of hard pigmented hair using the Gold Standard technique, as well as remove dark, blonde, gray or red unwanted hair using nanoepilation.

The principle of laser hair removal

The basis of laser hair removal is the destruction of the hair growth zone using laser radiation. The procedure involves the use of a specialized diode laser, which directs a narrow light beam at the pigment inside the hair without affecting the surrounding tissues and internal organs. This laser beam penetrates to a safe depth of the skin, where it heats the hair shaft and hair follicle. During the treatment process, the melanin contained in the hair absorbs the radiation energy. Under the influence of heat, the blood vessels responsible for nourishing the hair follicles stick together, which leads to the destruction of the growth zone and depletion of the hair root. As a result, the hair falls out with the root within 2-3 weeks.

It is important to note that the first session of laser hair removal allows you to remove about 15-40% of unwanted hair, since only a certain amount of hair is in the active phase of growth. The body also contains “sleeping” hair follicles that will start growing later. Removal of such hair will be possible only after its activation, so it is recommended to undergo a full course of laser hair removal to achieve optimal results.

Advantages of laser hair removal in LaserHouse

1. High efficiency. A full course of laser hair removal allows you to permanently remove up to 90% of unwanted hair. Maintenance sessions 1-2 times a year help to maintain the achieved result for a long time.
   
2. Convenience. Laser hair removal does not require complex preliminary preparation or a long recovery period. Light redness, which is possible immediately after the procedure, disappears on its own within a few hours.
   
3. Hypoallergenicity. The laser beam has bactericidal properties, which prevents the occurrence of inflammatory reactions and other negative consequences.
   
4. Effectiveness against ingrown hair. The hair remaining after applying traditional methods of removal falls out, and new hair does not appear.
   
5. Safety. International protocols are strictly followed during hair removal procedures. All laser devices have successfully passed clinical trials and have international quality certificates.
   
6. Painlessness. Unlike a razor, laser hair removal does not cause cuts and does not damage the skin, preventing the appearance of scars.
   
7. Comfort for the patient. Our equipment is equipped with special technologies that reduce pain during the procedure. If necessary, local anesthesia is also used in the form of a spray or cream.

What equipment is used?

At the LaserHouse Center in Poznan, we use a modern diode laser Lumenis Light Sheer ET from a well-known manufacturer (Israel/USA) for laser hair removal procedures. This advanced equipment is completely safe for the health of patients and has a contact cooling system. This makes the hair removal process more comfortable and minimizes the risk of overheating of the skin. The sapphire crystal optical system allows the laser to precisely target only the melanin in the hair without harming the surrounding tissue.

This device has two attachments: ET for small areas and HS for larger areas of skin. The HS handpiece is also equipped with a vacuum system that increases skin contact and reduces possible discomfort during the procedure.

What are the stages of a session?

At the LaserHouse Center in Poznan, we follow the international protocol when performing laser hair removal procedures. At the first stage, the specialist consults with the patient, examines the area to be treated, answers all questions and clarifies the presence of possible diseases. After excluding any contraindications, determining the skin phototype and setting the laser to the optimal parameters, the patient is provided with protective glasses.

The laser hair removal session itself includes the following stages

1. Cleansing the skin from dust, sebum and surface impurities. If necessary, decorative cosmetics are also removed if the face is treated.
   
2. At the patient's request, local anesthesia is applied to ensure comfort.
   
3. When using the Lumenis Light Sheer ET system, a contact gel is applied to the treated area.
   
4. The laser manipulator is applied to the hair removal area.
   
5. A regenerating agent such as Bepanthen or Panthenol is applied to soothe and restore the skin after the procedure.
   
6. If the treated area is located on exposed skin, sunscreen with physical filters is applied to protect against the harmful effects of sunlight.

What results to expect?
