Laser hair removal services are available only at: Invitro Diagnostics Clinic, 64/2 Albișoara Street
Laser hair removal for the shoulders is a procedure designed to progressively and significantly reduce unwanted hair growth over the long term. Laser energy is absorbed by the melanin in the hair and targets the hair follicle, gradually reducing its ability to produce new hair.
Indications
- excessive or unwanted hair growth in the shoulder area;
- dense or coarse hair;
- rapid hair regrowth after traditional hair removal methods;
- desire to reduce the need for shaving or other hair removal methods;
- folliculitis or irritation associated with frequent hair removal.
Procedure / Duration
The shoulder area is assessed and prepared for the procedure. The laser is applied in a controlled manner to the skin, directing energy toward the hair follicles. Sensations during the procedure may vary depending on individual sensitivity and hair density.
Several sessions are required for optimal results, as the laser is most effective on hairs that are in specific phases of the growth cycle.
Duration: approximately 15–30 minutes.
Restrictions
Mild redness, a sensation of warmth, or temporary sensitivity may occur in the treated area after the procedure. During the first 24–48 hours, it is recommended to avoid saunas, very hot baths, intensive workouts, and irritating cosmetic products. Sun exposure should be limited, and the use of sunscreen is recommended.
Contraindications
- active infections, inflammation, or skin lesions in the treatment area;
- active herpes in the treatment area;
- recent tanning or intense sun exposure;
- use of medications that increase skin sensitivity to light;
- acute dermatological conditions in the treatment area;
- recent use of hair removal methods that remove the hair from the root;
- other medical conditions in which the procedure is contraindicated by a physician.
In case of ongoing medication or chronic conditions, the procedure should be performed following an assessment by a specialist.
Advantages
- progressive and long-term reduction of unwanted hair;
- targeted action on the hair follicle;
- suitable for areas with dense hair growth;
- reduces the need for frequent shaving or other hair removal methods;
- helps reduce irritation associated with shaving;
- quick procedure with minimal recovery time.
