What is Laser Hair Removal and How Does It Work?
Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses concentrated beams of light (laser) to target and destroy hair follicles. The laser energy is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair, which heats up and damages the follicle, preventing future hair growth.
The Science Behind Laser Hair Removal
1. Selective Photothermolysis
The laser targets dark pigment in hair while leaving surrounding skin undamaged. This is why laser works best on dark hair and lighter skin tones.
2. Hair Growth Cycle Targeting
Laser only affects hair in the active growth phase (anagen). Since only 20-30% of hair is in this phase at any time, multiple sessions are needed for complete results.
3. Permanent Reduction
After 6-8 sessions, most patients experience 80-95% permanent hair reduction. Any remaining hair is typically finer and lighter.
Types of Laser Hair Removal Technology
Not all lasers are created equal. At Perla Clinic, we use multiple laser types to ensure safe and effective treatment for all skin types and hair colors.

- Safest for darker skin
- Minimal risk of hyperpigmentation

Best for: All skin types (Fitzpatrick I-VI)

What to Expect: The Treatment Process
Step 1: Free Consultation
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Yomna Ali. We'll assess your skin type, hair color, medical history, and discuss your goals. You'll receive a personalized treatment plan and accurate pricing.
Step 2: Pre-Treatment Preparation
- Shave the treatment area 24 hours before (don't wax or pluck)
- Avoid sun exposure for 2 weeks prior
- Stop using retinoids or exfoliating products 3 days before
- Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin
Step 3: The Treatment Session
Treatment typically takes 15-60 minutes depending on the area size:
- Upper lip: 5-10 minutes
- Underarms: 10-15 minutes
- Bikini area: 15-20 minutes
- Full legs: 45-60 minutes
Most patients describe the sensation as a rubber band snapping against the skin. We use cooling technology to minimize discomfort.
Step 4: Post-Treatment Care
- Apply aloe vera gel or prescribed cream to soothe skin
- Avoid sun exposure and use SPF 50+ sunscreen
- Don't wax, pluck, or use depilatory creams between sessions
- Shaving is allowed if needed
- Avoid hot showers, saunas, and intense exercise for 24-48 hours
Step 5: Follow-Up Sessions
Sessions are typically scheduled 4-8 weeks apart. Most patients need 6-8 sessions for optimal results, with some requiring maintenance treatments once or twice a year.

Immediate Effects
Hair in the treated area will shed within 1-2 weeks. You'll notice smoother skin and reduced hair growth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is laser hair removal painful?
Most patients describe it as a mild discomfort, similar to a rubber band snap. We use advanced cooling technology to minimize any sensation. Sensitive areas like the bikini line may be slightly more uncomfortable, but it's very tolerable. Pain level is typically 2-3 out of 10.
Is laser hair removal safe for dark skin?
Yes! At Perla Clinic, we use Nd:YAG laser which is specifically designed for darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick V-VI). This laser safely targets hair follicles without damaging surrounding skin, making it ideal for Egyptian skin types.
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients need 6-8 sessions for optimal results. However, this varies based on hair thickness, color, treatment area, and hormonal factors. Face and bikini areas may require more sessions (8-10), while legs and arms typically need fewer (5-7).
Can I get laser hair removal while pregnant?
We recommend postponing laser hair removal during pregnancy and breastfeeding as a precaution, even though there's no evidence of harm. Hormonal changes during pregnancy can also affect hair growth patterns, making treatment less effective.
What's the best time of year for laser hair removal?
Fall and winter are ideal because you need to avoid sun exposure before and after treatment. However, with proper sun protection (SPF 50+), laser hair removal can be done year-round. Many patients start in winter to be hair-free by summer!
Does laser hair removal work on blonde or gray hair?
Traditional laser hair removal works best on dark hair because it targets melanin (pigment). Blonde, red, and gray hair have less melanin, making them harder to treat. However, newer technologies are improving results for lighter hair colors. Book a consultation to discuss your options.
Are there any side effects?
Side effects are minimal and temporary. You may experience mild redness, slight swelling, or tingling for a few hours after treatment. Rarely, some patients may have temporary pigment changes. Following post-treatment care instructions minimizes any risks.
Can men get laser hair removal?
Laser hair removal is increasingly popular among men. Common treatment areas include back, chest, shoulders, and beard shaping. Men typically have coarser hair which responds very well to laser treatment.
