Laser hair removal is a procedure that uses a concentrated beam of light energy to remove unwanted body hair. In this procedure, the energy of the laser beam is converted to heat to damage hair follicles. Laser hair removal effectively delays hair growth for long periods, and it usually results in semi-permanent hair removal.
Between six to twelve laser hair removal treatments are usually needed for initial laser hair removal, and touchup treatments might be needed to maintain the result over time. Laser hair removal is most effective for people who have light skin and dark hair, but the new ALMA Soprano technology is effectively used on all skin types safely. This technology has been developed for both women and men. The most requested hair removal area for women is the Brazilian area and underarms, while for men it is typically the back and chest.

How do I choose a laser hair clinic?
Laser hair removal is everywhere these days! However, it may not be as effective as intended for some patients due to several reasons, briefly listed here:Laser hair removal is everywhere these days! However, it may not be as effective as intended for some patients due to several reasons, briefly listed here:
1-There is a big range of laser machines in the market these days, but only a few technologies are approved in Canada and the US. You may find low prices and cheap deals in the market, but you should never risk your skin and beauty. There is always a balance between quality and price! The running cost of an approved and certified system in a year could be higher than the value of buying a fake or uncertified laser machine! We in laser hair removal clinic only use Canadian-approved machines and materials. Our laser machine is under the protection of the manufacturer (ALMA US).
2- The hair removal laser machines should be serviced and inspected regularly by the manufacturer’s authorized expert to make sure it works properly and is safe. The responsible laser hair removal clinics are well aware of this important requirement and always ensure the correct operation of their machine although these kinds of protection services are usually costly.
3- The poor technique of the laser technician or inappropriate wavelength setting that is not targeting the follicles efficiently and enough energy to destroy the follicles are the other reasons for unsuccessful treatment. It is important to choose a well-certified and professional clinic that offers laser hair removal with experienced technicians to avoid treatment failure and waste of money and time.
4-There are different types of hair in the different areas of the body, therefore a trained technician should know that the different hair responds differently to laser hair removal and it is needed to set a proper treatment for each area.
Hair type and color are important factors in determining how laser hair removal will work on a patient. In general, the hair follicles with too little pigmentation (white hair, light red hair, or light blonde hair) are showing fewer results and they need more time and treatment sessions to see the desired result. Also, there is the same issue for the patients with darker skin tones, with the hair and the skin in a similar color. In Golden Pulse, we always offer our clients a free consultation and test session to set the needed treatments based on their unique skin and hair types.
Laser hair removal only target hair follicles effectively when hairs are in the first stage of hair growth (Anagen). Therefore, several treatments are needed to effectively destroy all the hair follicles that are missed in the other treatments, as they go in and out of the growing stage. To get the best result from the laser treatment, the treatment sessions should be spaced optimally relative to the patient hair’s growth cycles. Having more treatment sessions but not scheduled properly could not bring you more results!
4- The excess hair might be the result of a hormonal imbalance and in this case, the laser hair removal might not work at all. For women with excessive body or facial hair, we always recommend having a medical evaluation prior to your laser treatment. Also, there are certain medications that can interfere with your laser hair treatments. It is needed, that all patients always, inform their laser technician about their medication and consult their special medical condition prior to the treatment.
5- For best results, it is essential that patients follow proper preparation protocol before and after the laser hair removal treatments. The treatment area should ideally be clean and shaved 1-2 days before your treatment. Tanning, tweezing or waxing before your treatment can setback your laser hair removal progress. For more details, please refer to our protocols listed on the Golden Pulse Cosmetic Center website (goldenpulse.ca) or contact us for more information and consultation.
