For millions of women and men too much hair is not only a cosmetic problem, it also negatively influences life in general. They avoid swimming pools and sport clubs, social contact is limited because of a shy and unconfident manner. Removing hair by shaving, pulling them out, wax, electroepilation with needles and chemical hair removers are painfull and time-consuming methods.
Undesirable side effects such as reddenings and inflammations occur; the result is frustrating and often not long lasting either. Due to development of new, high-energetic light impulses, so called Epilight and the long-pulsed Nd Yag Laser, a new option of gentle and long-lasting hair removal was ibvebted.

This way bothering hair on all body parts can be removed simply and gently. Clinical supervision and examination via a tissue section proved that hair roots had been destroyed which prevents new hair growth.
A description “permanent hair removal through laser epilation” must be put into context: so far there is no method anywhere in the world, which, after one application, can permanently eliminate the treated hair. The laser epilation technique that has constantly developed in the recent 10 years, offers a gradual approach to solving this problem. A number of sessions is always needed to get a satisfying result. We treat with Nd-Yag-Laser and Epi-Light-Device (IPL-Technique).
For security reasons, the radiation dosis is selected in such a way so that only active hair roots are damaged. These are, depending on the body, 20 to 30 % of existing hair. The remaining hair which is now in a “sleep phase” (telogen hair) will grow again. After waiting for a certain period of time (ca. 1-3 months), till a high enough percentage of remaining hair reaches anagen phase, the next treatment session can take place. On average, at least 10 such sessions are needed to get a satisfying result. In addition to that, the effect of the laser treatment is better, if instead of doing epilation; you begin to shave the spot three weeks before the laser treatment. Syncronising hair growth through a one-time preceding growth is also described in the literature.
Laser treatment includes cooling of the skin, which must alleviate secondary heating. In the treated area, the skin reddens. However, after a couple of hours, the reddening fades away or can be covered with make up. After that and before the treatment a light protection (UV-sunblock) that we recommend should be applied in the course of several weeks.
