what is laser hair removal ?
Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses a concentrated beam of light (laser) to remove unwanted hair. During the procedure, the laser emits light absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. This light energy converts to heat, which damages the hair follicles within the skin that produce hairs. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth.
We use an FDA-approved Diode laser machine for our laser hair removal treatments. The Diode laser is known for its precision, safety, and effectiveness in targeting hair follicles while protecting the surrounding skin. It’s suitable for a wide range of skin types and provides long-lasting results with minimal discomfort.

Your Journey to Smooth Skin
At Skinovation Esthetics, we are committed to helping you feel confident and comfortable in your skin. Say goodbye to razors, waxing, and tweezing with our effective laser hair removal treatments.
Preparation for Laser Hair Removal :
- Consultation: Schedule a consultation with a licensed and experienced laser technician or dermatologist. They will assess your skin type, hair color, and medical history to determine if you are a suitable candidate for laser hair removal.
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Minimize sun exposure and tanning beds for at least six weeks before treatment. Sun exposure can make laser hair removal less effective and increase the risk of complications like skin lightening or darkening.
- Shave the Treatment Area: Shave the area you plan to treat a day or two before your appointment. This allows the laser to target the hair follicle beneath the skin without singeing hair above the skin’s surface.
- Avoid Waxing or Plucking: Avoid waxing, plucking, or electrolysis for at least four weeks prior to treatment. These methods remove the hair follicle, which is necessary for the laser to effectively target during treatment.
- Discuss Medications: Inform Our expert about any medications you are taking, as some medications can make your skin more sensitive to the laser.
During the Laser Hair Removal Procedure :
- Eye Protection: You will be given protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the laser light.
- Cooling Gel or Device: A cooling gel or device may be applied to the treatment area to help protect your skin and minimize discomfort during the procedure.
- Laser Application: The technician will use a handheld device to deliver laser pulses to the targeted areas. You may feel a mild discomfort like snapping of a rubber band or tingling sensation.
- Treatment Time: The duration of the procedure varies depending on the size of the area being treated. Small areas such as the upper lip may take only a few minutes, while larger areas like the legs or back may take up to an hour or more.
Post Care for Laser Hair Removal:
- Skin Care: Apply a soothing lotion or aloe vera gel to the treated area to soothe any redness or irritation.
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect treated areas from sun exposure for at least a week post-treatment. Use sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) if sun exposure cannot be avoided.
- Avoid Hot Baths and Saunas: Refrain from hot baths, saunas, or activities that may cause excessive sweating for 24-48 hours after treatment.
- Avoid Irritating Products: Avoid using harsh skincare products, exfoliants, or perfumed lotions on treated areas for a few days.
- Follow Up Treatments: You may need multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart to achieve optimal results. Follow your provider’s recommended treatment schedule.
Considerations for Laser Hair Removal :
- Hair Color and Skin Type: Laser hair removal works best on individuals with light skin and dark hair. Newer technologies can be effective for darker skin tones as well, but it’s important to consult with a provider experienced in treating diverse skin types.
- Hair Growth Cycle: Laser hair removal is most effective when hair is in the active growth phase (anagen). Multiple sessions are necessary to target hair follicles in different stages of growth.
- Potential Side Effects: Temporary side effects may include redness, swelling, and mild discomfort. Serious side effects such as burns or changes in skin pigmentation are rare but possible.
- Cost and Maintenance: Costs vary depending on the size of the treatment area and the number of sessions required. Maintenance sessions may be needed periodically to maintain hair reduction.
Tattoo Removal :
At Skinovation Esthetics, our advanced laser tattoo removal service helps you erase unwanted ink with precision and care. Using state-of-the-art laser technology, we target the pigment in your tattoo, breaking it down safely and effectively, allowing your body to naturally eliminate the particles. Our tattoo removal service is suitable for all skin types and can treat a wide range of tattoo colors.
In addition to traditional tattoos, we specialize in microbladed eyebrow tattoo removal, a delicate process requiring expertise. Our gentle, yet effective laser treatment ensures that your skin is protected while the unwanted pigment is gradually faded away.
Key Benefits :
- Non-invasive and safe
- Minimal downtime
- Effective for various ink colors and tattoo sizes
- Specialized treatment for microbladed eyebrow tattoos
- Gradual fading with each session
How It Works :
Laser light is directed at the tattooed area, where it shatters the ink into tiny fragments. Over time, your body’s immune system removes the particles. Depending on the size and color of the tattoo, multiple sessions may be needed for full removal. Microbladed eyebrow tattoos may require fewer treatments due to their superficial placement.
Post Care Eyebrow Tattoo Removal :
- Apply cold compress to help and reduce swelling and discomfort
- Avoid touching the treated area to prevent infection for 3 days
- Apply ointment to ensure effective healing of the treated area
- Avoid intense sweating for 7-10 days
- Avoid direct sun exposure for 2 week
- Sleep on back to avoid treated area touching pillow case
