Frequently asked questions

How does laser hair removal work?

• The laser uses a beam of light which penetrates the skin and is absorbed by the pigment colour in the hair where it is converted to heat. This heat travels down the hair shaft to the hair root and destroys it so that further hair cannot grow.
• Because hair has different growth phases and the treatment only works in the active growth phase, several treatments are necessary to achieve a lasting result.
• The number of treatments depends upon the hair density, colour and skin type and treatment area.
• Typically 4 – 6 treatments are required.

As the treatment depends on the laser energy being absorbed by the pigment colour of the hair, it is not possible to treat white, grey, platinum blond or very light shades of hair by laser.

How long does laser hair removal take?

This depends on the area being treated for laser hair removal and ranges from 15 minutes for the upper lip or chin and bikini line, to 60 minutes for the back or the legs.

Is laser hair removal safe?

As we only use a beam of light to remove the hair, it is a non-invasive procedure which is perfectly safe. The laser settings used are individually chosen for your skin type and hair colour to minimise the risk of any significant skin reaction. This is also helped by the use of a water cooled tip on the laser hand piece that protects the skin from thermal injury.

Is laser hair removal permanent?

It is always possible for new hair to grow after any form of hair removal treatment. However, laser treatment is the nearest we can get to achieving excellent long-term results. Occasionally it is possible to see the re-growth of small amounts of hair over a period of time, but this is usually weaker and lighter in colour and can be quickly treated again if necessary.

What does laser hair removal cost?

The cost of laser hair removal depends on how long it takes to carry out the procedure. This, in turn, depends on the surface area being treated. Larger areas like the legs or back are more expensive than the lips or chin. But we at Hylagen pride ourselves at being the most affordable anywhere on the island of Ireland.
