Laser hair removal is the safest way to stop hair growth. We offer laser hair removal with the latest alexandrite laser, GentleLase Pro, which provides effective, safe and gentle removal of unwanted hair.

The latest generation GentleLase Pro laser is recognized worldwide as gold standard in laser hair removal. The alexandrite laser allows the application of the latest laser hair removal algorithms, which are used worldwide.

WHAT IS LASER HAIR REMOVAL?

Laser hair removal is the damaging the hair follicle with a light source. Only a light ray of high power and a certain wavelength is capable of damaging the hair follicle for a longer period of time.

 

HAIR REMOVAL WITH THE ALEXANDRITE LASER ENSURES:

lazerepilacijaEFFECTIVE STOPPING OF HAIR GROWTH

The power of the alexandrite laser is significantly (6-11 times) higher than that of other hair removal devices. This ensures long-lasting removal of hair follicles.

A SOLUTION FOR ALL HAIR TYPES

The power of the alexandrite laser makes it possible to remove even light and thin hairs.

 

HEALING EFFECT ON THE SKIN

The alexandrite laser stimulates collagen synthesis, which results in younger-looking skin, removing blemishes and rashes.

 

GENTLE TREATMENT

The laser is gentle on the hair follicles. The GentleLase Pro DCD cooling system protects the skin surface against painful sensations throughout the treatment, ensuring maximum comfort.

 

WHY IS LASER HAIR REMOVAL MORE EFFECTIVE THAN PHOTOEPILATION?

Laser hair removal is the most effective hair removal method. The laser produces a high power single wavelength of light and works on the principle of selective photothermolysis, i.e. it precisely destroys the hair follicle and the surrounding cells from which the base of the hair is formed. Lasers are much more powerful than photo-epilation IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) devices, so you can get long-lasting results with lasers. Lasers, with their power to produce a single wavelength beam, are used for specific tasks such as hair removal. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) machines produce a beam of light, so they do not hit their target – the hair – accurately, but the melanin in the hair absorbs the light (less) effectively. Due to the low power of photo-epilation machines, hair follicles are not destroyed. The broad beam spectrum of IPL poses a higher risk of side effects. The effectiveness of the epilation procedure depends on the power of the device. Generally, pulsed light (photo-epilation) devices have a power of 10–15–50 J/cm2 ((in comparison, the alexandrite laser can reach up to 150 J/cm2). Such low-power IPL machine only acts on the surface and is unable to destroy hair follicles, so even after seven to ten treatments hairs grow back faster. It should be noted that cosmetologists are allowed to work with very low-powered IPL machines. Because of their wide beam spectrum, IPL machines are not designed for hair removal alone; their use is much broader: removal of skin redness, hair, etc. However, because of their low power, the effectiveness of photoepilation machines is very low.

 

WHAT DISTINGUISHES THE ALEXANDRITE LASER?

Our clinic uses the most powerful, latest generation Candela GentleLase alexandrite laser. It has a power of 17.666 W, compared to 1.6 W-2.9 W for other lasers. It is the most effective hair removal method for fair-skinned clients because its 755 nm wave absorbs the hair pigment melanin better (compared to diode, Nd:Yag lasers). The power of the GentleLase Pro alexandrite laser reaches 150 J/cm2, which makes it possible to remove even light, thin hair. This laser is FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved as a long-term hair removal method. When the laser ray reaches the hair follicle, the energy of the ray burns it instantly. The laser pulse lasts only a fraction of a second. The laser pulse timing is precisely calibrated to ensure that the laser energy is directed into the hair follicle and does not damage the surrounding tissue. The integrated DCD (dynamic cooling device) skin cooling system ensures safe and painless treatment of the skin with the high-energy pulse, while protecting the skin surface from damage.

Thanks to its power and light wavelength optimal for hair follicle removal, as well as the DCD system which provides pain protection, the GentleLase Pro laser is recognised as the gold standard in laser hair removal.

WHAT SKIN PROBLEMS DOES THE ALEXANDRITE LASER TREAT?

Shaving, plucking and using hair removal creams – with those procedures, the hair is only removed for a short period of time. These treatments also often cause skin problems, as hairs start to grow into the skin, causing rashes, which are replaced by long-lasting, dark patches. If a bacterial infection starts, the skin is scarred. This is a problem for both women and men, whose post-shaving rashes become a reason for laser hair removal. As a result of laser hair removal, the hair follicles are destroyed. After one or two GentleLase Pro treatments, hairs no longer grow, spots and rashes disappear and the appearance of the skin improves significantly. The skin becomes healthier and smoother again.

 

IN WHICH AREAS CAN LASER HAIR REMOVAL BE PERFORMED?

Laser hair removal is usually performed on the face and body in women: upper lip, chin, cheeks, armpits, arms, bikini area and other areas, and in men: shoulders, waist, armpits, arms, back and abdomen area. At the ERA ESTHETIC Laser Dermatology Clinic, new lasers can be used to remove hair from any part of the body.

 

HOW MANY LASER HAIR REMOVAL TREATMENTS SHOULD I HAVE?

In the early growth phase, the hair contains the most pigment, so repeated treatments are necessary to remove as much hair as possible in this phase. A full course of treatments is necessary for long-lasting results. On average, three to six treatments are carried out. Often, after the third laser hair removal treatment with the alexandrite laser, the desired result is achieved. After the first treatment, the hairs fall out, their quantity is reduced for a long time, the hairs become thinner, less visible and cause far fewer cosmetic problems for the skin. After the first treatment, no hair grows. The treatment should be repeated every four to twelve weeks. The results of Alexandrite laser treatments are long-lasting. Depending on the hormonal background of the body, later treatments can be carried out very rarely, only once a year.

 

WHAT IS THE DURATION OF THE TREATMENT?

The laser technology used in the ERA ESTHETIC Laser Dermatology Clinic allows the use of a wide range of laser applicator sizes, thus the alexandrite laser hair removal takes a very short time. The procedure takes a few seconds in the upper lip area, three minutes in the underarm area, 20-30 minutes in the leg and back area, about 10 minutes in the abdominal area for men and about one minute for women.

IS THE PROCEDURE PAINFULA?

During laser hair removal, the cooling DCD system protects the skin – it is cooled before and after the laser pulse

During the epilation, the patient feels a slight stinging and warmth with each alexandrite laser pulse. It is the only depilatory laser that integrates a specially designed cooling DCD system, so the skin is additionally protected during the treatment – cooled before and after the laser pulse. This allows safe and painless treatment with higher energy pulses. With this GentleLase Pro laser solution, there is no need for additional cooling or cooling gels used in other laser treatments.

WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW BEFORE LASER HAIR REMOVAL?

  • Avoid sunbathing for 1 week before laser treatment or use a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. Do not use self-tanners before the procedure.
  • Do not wax or epilate your hair for at least one month before the procedure. Other forms of hair removal, e.g. shaving, cutting, etc., which preserve the hair roots are permissible.
  • Make sure you have a clean skin when arriving – having shaved your hair the same day or the night before. Note: It is not necessary to shave facial hair.
  • Do not apply any irritating compounds such as glycolic acid, retinoids etc. to the skin 1 week before the procedure..
  • If you are taking photosensitising medication, be sure to inform your doctor.
  • If you have fair skin but darker hair, laser hair removal treatments will be more effective.
  • In the case of perioral viral herpes infection, antiviral therapy may be prescribed if laser hair removal is performed in the facial area.
  • The procedure will not be performed if you are pregnant. Breastfeeding mothers are allowed to have the procedure.

“I sincerely do not understand why there is still not a single MedAdvisor platform where people can rate the work of clinics, aesthetic centres and beauty salons.
If such a platform existed, then my assessment of the ERA ESTHETIC clinic would be a solid 5.0 in all respects.
In fact, for me, as a capricious client and aesthete, all these points are important. From the cleanliness, confidence in the qualifications of doctors, to their wide smiles and the absence of the overpowering smell of medical cabinets.”

Thirdly, being an aesthete, I love beautiful interiors and beautiful people – I find it pleasant to come to beautiful places. This is what I highly value. The clinic is beautiful and aesthetic, which is very important for me.

Fourthly, I find that comfortable and free parking is an important factor. And I find the fact that it is possible to park in the centre of the city without any additional stress or costs, to receive my procedures and then calmly and pleasantly drive away, to be an additional bonus.

And, of course, there is the human factor: the smiles I always receive, the constantly good mood, the humane and warm-hearted approach that always meets me at ERA ESTHETIC.

For me as a specialist with education and experience in the beauty industry, it is especially difficult for me to entrust my face and body to other masters. I always immediately see all the shortcomings and controversial points, but I fully trust the specialists working in the Era Esthetic clinic, therefore I always go for procedures with a “calm soul”.
Advanced technology, attention to each client and experienced staff will make sure that you are as comfortable as possible within the walls of the clinic!
