Unwanted hair can be difficult to manage with shaving, waxing, or threading. These methods often cause irritation, ingrown hair, and frequent regrowth. Laser hair removal offers a more effective and long-term solution.
This treatment uses controlled laser energy to target hair follicles and reduce future hair growth. As a result, the skin becomes smoother and easier to maintain. When performed under dermatologist supervision, laser hair removal is both safe and effective for many skin types.
At SkinVive, treatments are customised according to the patient’s skin tone, hair type, and treatment area. This ensures safe results and gradual, consistent hair reduction.
What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses concentrated light energy to target the pigment in hair follicles.
The laser energy converts into heat and damages the follicle responsible for hair growth. Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are required to target follicles during their active growth phase.
Over time, this process significantly reduces hair growth. The remaining hair usually becomes finer and lighter.
Unlike temporary hair removal methods, laser treatment focuses on the root cause of hair growth. Therefore, results are longer lasting and maintenance becomes easier.

What to expect from the procedure?
First, the dermatologist evaluates your skin and hair type. Then the treatment area is cleaned and prepared. During the session, the laser device delivers controlled pulses of energy to the hair follicles. Patients may feel mild warmth or a snapping sensation during the procedure. Most sessions take 15 to 45 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
After the session, mild redness may occur temporarily. However, this usually settles within a few hours. Because hair grows in cycles, several sessions are needed for optimal results. These sessions are spaced a few weeks apart. Results develop gradually as collagen production increases. Therefore, improvements become more noticeable over the following weeks or months.
