Laser Hair Removal in Islamabad
Your skin tone and hair type decide the settings, so every course begins with an assessment rather than a fixed protocol.
Laser hair removal targets the pigment in the hair follicle. Because hair grows in cycles and the laser only affects follicles in the active growth phase, a course of sessions is needed rather than a single treatment.
Before your first session we assess your skin tone, hair colour and thickness, and ask about medication and any history of pigmentation. A patch test is carried out where appropriate.
Most people need several sessions spaced a few weeks apart. Fine or light hair responds less predictably than coarse, dark hair, and we will say so before you book a course.

Questions
Before you book
How many sessions will I need?
It varies by area, hair type and skin tone. We give you an expected range at your consultation rather than a fixed promise.
Is it permanent?
Laser treatment reduces hair growth. Many people need occasional maintenance sessions afterwards. Nobody can honestly guarantee permanent removal.
Does it hurt?
Most people describe a brief snapping sensation. Sensitive areas feel sharper. Tell your therapist if it is uncomfortable so settings can be adjusted.
Can I have it on darker skin?
Modern lasers can treat a range of skin tones, but settings must be adjusted carefully. This is exactly what the assessment and patch test are for.
What should I avoid beforehand?
Avoid waxing, plucking and threading in the area, and avoid sun exposure and tanning. Shave the area before you come.
