What is Laser Hair Reduction?
Laser Hair Reduction is a dermatologist-supervised procedure that uses concentrated light energy to target and weaken hair follicles, reducing future hair growth. Unlike temporary methods such as shaving, waxing, or threading, laser treatment provides long-term hair reduction with greater comfort and convenience.

Treatment
What is expected 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.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Is laser hair reduction permanent?
Laser Hair Reduction provides long-term reduction in unwanted hair. While some fine hair may regrow over time, it is usually lighter and less noticeable. Occasional maintenance sessions may be recommended.
Is the treatment painful?
Most patients describe the sensation as a mild snapping feeling on the skin. Modern laser systems are designed to maximise comfort while delivering effective treatment.
How many sessions will I need?
Hair grows in cycles, so multiple sessions are necessary to target hair in its active growth phase. The exact number of sessions depends on the treatment area, hair type, and individual response.
Is laser hair reduction safe for all skin types?
Laser treatments can be safely customised for different skin types when performed by an experienced dermatologist. During your consultation, Dr. Ketki Bhoite will assess your skin and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan.
Can I shave between sessions?
Yes. Shaving is usually recommended between sessions, while waxing, threading, or plucking should generally be avoided as they remove the hair follicle that the laser targets.
