Say goodbye to razor burns & waxing pain

Say goodbye to the discomfort of razor burns and the agony of waxing pain. Unlike traditional hair removal methods, laser hair removal is non-invasive and painless. You’ll no longer have to endure the discomfort of hot wax or the nicks and cuts from a razor blade. The Barcelona Coiffure  performs laser hair removal using the cutting-edge Forever BARE BBL laser for a pain-free experience that leaves you with smooth and radiant skin.  

What is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that utilizes concentrated beams of light to target and destroy hair follicles in a specific area. The laser emits pulses of light absorbed by the pigment in the hair, causing the hair to heat up and damage the follicle, preventing future hair growth. The treatment can be customized to your skin type, hair color, and treatment area. Laser treatments is a safe and effective way to achieve long-lasting hair reduction.  

How laser hair removal works

Laser hair removal targets the hair’s pigment, also called melanin, with concentrated beams of light. The melanin absorbs the light, which causes the hair to heat up, and the hair follicle is damaged, preventing future hair growth. The light energy is delivered to the hair through a handheld device that is moved over the treatment area. The device emits a specific wavelength of light absorbed by the melanin in the hair, leaving the surrounding skin unharmed.

How to work

Anagen

This is the active growth phase when hair is still attached to the hair follicle and growing. During this stage, the hair follicle is fully functional, and the root is firmly anchored to the base of the follicle. This is the best stage to target for laser treatments because the hair is still growing and connected to the blood supply that feeds the hair.

Catagen

This is the transitional phase when hair growth slows down, and the hair follicle begins to shrink. The hair detaches from the blood supply, and the follicle starts to retract, causing the hair to become shorter and weaker. During this stage, laser hair removal is less effective, as the hair is not growing as actively.

Telogen

This is the resting phase when hair is no longer growing, and the hair follicle is at its smallest size. The hair is fully detached from the blood supply and is no longer growing. Laser hair removal is ineffective during this stage, as the hair follicle is in a state of rest, and there is no growth for the laser to target.

CONSULTATION

Your laser hair removal journey begins with a consultation with our experienced professionals. We will discuss your medical history, skin type, and hair color to determine if laser hair removal suits you. We will also answer your questions and discuss your goals for the procedure. Finally, we will create a laser treatments plan tailored to your unique needs.

TREATMENT

You will be asked to lie on a comfortable treatment bed, and a cooling gel will be applied to the treatment area. The Forever BARE BBL device will emit concentrated beams of light, targeting and destroying hair follicles in the targeted areas. The device’s large spot size ensures we can cover a larger area with each pulse, making the treatment faster.

RECOVERY

After laser hair removal, you may experience mild redness and swelling in the treated area. This is normal and should subside within a few hours. You may also experience mild discomfort, and your skin will be photosensitive for a few days, so you should avoid direct sunlight. You can resume daily activities immediately, but please wear broad-spectrum sunscreen regularly.

RESULTS

The results from laser hair removal can vary, depending on the individual. However, most patients experience a significant reduction in hair growth after a few treatments. You may need 6 to 8 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart for optimal results, and your hair will grow sparser and thinner after each session. After the initial round of laser treatments in Barcelona Coiffure, you may need maintenance treatments once or twice a year to maintain your results.
