THE VISUAL EXPLAINER / Laser hair removal

Pigment helps guide energy to hair follicles

Start with the picture. Follow the three steps below.

What does the work?
Laser light
Where does it act?
Pigmented hair and follicles
Laser hair removal: Pigment absorbs light — Hair pigment absorbs laser energy. Hair colour and skin colour influence treatment choice.. Follicle heating — Energy becomes heat that can damage hair-growing structures.. Growth-cycle planning — Hairs grow in cycles, so a course and possible maintenance visits may be needed.

    Pigment absorbs light

    Hair pigment absorbs laser energy. Hair colour and skin colour influence treatment choice.

  2. 02

    Follicle heating

    Energy becomes heat that can damage hair-growing structures.

  3. 03

    Growth-cycle planning

    Hairs grow in cycles, so a course and possible maintenance visits may be needed.

What this picture does — and does not — explain

The drawing simplifies the growth cycle. It does not promise complete permanent removal; very light hair may respond poorly.

Illustrations show a concept, not a treatment result or instructions for performing a procedure. Medical review has not yet been completed.

01

How to understand it

Laser treatment targets hair follicles. Hair colour, skin colour, the body area and the hair growth cycle affect the plan. Multiple sessions may be needed; a holiday visit is not automatically a complete course.

02

What to discuss

Discuss the area and your skin and hair characteristics. Ask what improvement is realistic and whether maintenance may be needed.

03

How it is delivered

Laser light applied to the skin.

04

Risks & questions

Redness and swelling can occur. Burns, blistering, scarring and pigment changes are possible. Tell the clinician about tanning and medicines.

05

Planning recovery

Request preparation and aftercare instructions before arriving. Confirm the timing of further sessions with the clinician.
