laser hair removal
what is laser hair removal?
laser hair removal is a safe, effective & painless way to remove hair from the body, using laser technology that targets hair follicles and reduces growth. It is a popular cosmetic treatment that is preferred by many because it is safe, effective, and long-lasting.
how does laser hair reduction work?
hair anatomy
before delving into how laser hair removal works, it is essential to understand the basic anatomy of hair. hair consists of three parts: the hair follicle (located below the skin's surface, responsible for hair growth), the root (bottom part of the hair follicle that anchors the hair to the skin), and the shaft (visible part of the hair that protrudes from the skin's surface)
hair growth phases
hair growth occurs in cycles, and there are three phases of hair growth: anagen (active growth phase during which the hair grows and gets longer), catagen (transitional phase where hair growth stops, and the hair follicle shrinks), and telogen (the resting phase where the hair stops growing and eventually falls out).
how does laser work?
laser hair removal works by targeting the melanin (pigment) in the hair follicle without damaging the surrounding skin. the laser emits a beam of light that is absorbed by the melanin in the hair. the absorbed heat damages the hair follicle.
once the hair follicle is damaged, the hair is unable to grow back. however, since not all hair is in the anagen phase at the same time, multiple sessions are required to target hair in different growth phases.
the number of sessions required varies depending on the individual's hair type, skin type, and the area being treated. typically, customers require 6 to 8 sessions spaced out every 4 to 6 weeks.

faqs on laser hair removal
is laser hair removal safe?
absolutely yes! laser hair reduction is non-surgical and a non-invasive procedure and is extremely safe. It just focuses on the hair follicle in the targeted area without affecting the encompassing area as the laser is calibrated by the thickness, skin tone, hair tone and area of the hair.
is laser hair removal permanent?
laser hair reduction works by targeting the hair follicles with intense pulsating light energy. this energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair shaft and heats up the follicle, which damages the hair bulb and surrounding structures responsible for hair growth. over time, this damage causes the hair to stop growing and fall out.
one of the key benefits of laser hair removal is that it can provide long-lasting results. while it may not be completely permanent, most people experience a significant reduction in hair growth that can last for several months or even years. The exact length of time will vary depending on a number of factors, including the individual's hair and skin type, the location of the treatment area, and the number of treatments received.
is one session enough for laser hair removal?
hair removal is efficient when the hair is in its anagen, or actively growing phase. not all hair is in this phase at all times. therefore, after one session, you can expect up to 25% hair reduction. hence it is recommended to have minimum 6 sessions for effective results.

with makeO skinnsi, you can have up to 95% hair reduction with a minimum of 6 sessions. we use top notch machine with ice-cool technology, that targets every kind of hair. our dermatologists are also extremely devoted to provide you satisfactory results.
does hair grow back after a laser hair removal session?
laser hair removal treatment involves completely damaging the hair follicles by applying a high beam of energy (laser) when the hair follicles are in the anagen phase. anagen phase is the phase where hair is actively growing. hence, the damaged follicles will not grow back.
however, you will continue to see hair follicles that were in resting phases to actively grow. this is the reason dermatologists recommend at least 6 sessions for effective results.
are there any side effects of laser hair removal in the long run?
there are no long-term effects of laser hair removal. on the contrary, laser hair removal is very safe. however, on extremely rare occasions, one might experience blisters for a few days post a session.
how long will the results last?
depending on the number of sessions you have taken, the results of a laser hair removal treatment can vary. dermatologists recommend a minimum of 6 sessions for a 95% reduction in hair, with a permanent effect.
