Laser hair removal is used to reduce unwanted hair. And we, at Aeon Clinic, believe in getting to the root of the problem. Common treatment locations include legs, armpits, upper lip, chin and the bikini line. However, it’s possible to treat unwanted hair in nearly any area, except the eyelid or surrounding area.

Hair color and skin type influence the success of laser hair removal. The basic principle is that the pigment of the hair, but not the pigment of the skin, should absorb the light. The laser should damage only the hair follicle while avoiding damage to the skin. Therefore, a contrast between hair and skin color — dark hair and light skin — results in the best outcomes.

 The results are permanent and provide a practical and cost-effective alternative to waxing and shaving. Other benefits of laser hair removal are as follows:

• Offers permanent hair reduction
• Suitable for hair removal from any area of the body
• Precise treatment that does not affect the surrounding skin
• A quick procedure that lasts for 45 minutes to an hour
• Zero downtime
• No significant side effects
• A hassle-free method that is cost-effective in the long run
