How to achieve permanent hair removal?
Today, you have access to a wide range of both traditional and advanced hair removal methods.
Razors, blades, or depilatory creams remove only the hair above the surface of the skin. These methods provide only a short-term solution, as hair typically regrows within two days.
Depilation techniques like waxing or sugaring remove hair including the root. While these methods are more effective and their results last longer, they are not permanent. These treatments generally need to be repeated every 4 to 6 weeks.
Laser hair removal is the only method that offers proven long-term hair reduction, as it targets the hair follicles directly and prevents further growth. For most clients, hair either stops growing completely or its growth is significantly slowed after treatment.
Where to get laser hair removal in Prague?
In our metropolis, many salons and aesthetic clinics offer laser hair removal. However, most of them use diode lasers, which are most effective with a contrast between light skin and dark hair. Their effectiveness diminishes on tanned or naturally darker skin, as well as on light hair.
In our salon, we use advanced Alexandrite lasers, which are more powerful than traditional diode models. This technology allows us to treat tanned skin, provided the tan is not recent. We can effectively assist a broader range of clients with this technology.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Laser hair removal is one of the least painful hair removal methods. During the procedure, you may experience only a mild stinging sensation.
Any discomfort is further reduced by the cooling functions of the device, which cools and numbs the skin during treatment. For those with a very low pain threshold, a topical anesthetic cream can be applied, although this is generally not necessary.

When to make an appointment for laser epilation?
Us laser can effectively remove even hair on tanned skin, so we can perform epilation all year round, depending on your time availability. You don’t have to wait for your holiday tan to fade, but it’s important that the tan isn’t brand new.
Also, keep in mind that epilated skin should not be exposed to the sun for about a month, so some people prefer to have their epilation in the fall and winter. However, if you protect yourself sufficiently from the sun, it is not a problem to undergo epilation at any time.
