Laser hair removal
Is the procedure painful?
Sensations depend on the area and device. Modern lasers have cooling systems, so most clients describe it as a light tingling or warmth. The Deka Motus AX with MOVEO technology works almost pain-free even on sensitive areas.
How many sessions are needed?
On average 6–8 sessions for lasting results. Hair grows in cycles - laser only acts on hair in the active growth phase, so repeat sessions are necessary. The exact number depends on the area, hair type and skin type.
How long between sessions?
Typically 4–8 weeks depending on the area: face more frequently, body less so. Your specialist will set an individual schedule at the consultation. // TODO: confirm intervals with this salon
Can it be done on tanned skin?
It depends on the device. Most lasers are not recommended on freshly tanned skin. The Deka Motus AX, with the right settings, can work on olive or tanned skin. Best to discuss your skin condition at a consultation.
How should I prepare for the session?
Avoid removing hair by the root (waxing, tweezers, epilator) 2–4 weeks before the session - the laser needs the follicle. Shaving is fine. Avoid tanning and self-tanner before the session. // TODO: confirm with salon protocol
When will I see results?
Noticeable hair reduction after the first 2–3 sessions: hair becomes finer, lighter and grows more slowly. Full lasting results appear after completing the course.
Are there any contraindications?
Yes: pregnancy, certain skin conditions in the treatment area, fresh tan, some photosensitive medications, oncological conditions and others. The full list is assessed by the specialist at the consultation. // TODO: confirm contraindication list with salon
Electrolysis
How is electrolysis different from laser?
Laser works through hair pigment and is effective on dark hair. Electrolysis destroys the follicle with a micro-current through a thin needle and works regardless of hair colour - slower, but universal.
Who is electrolysis best suited for?
Primarily for light, red, grey and vellus hair that laser barely affects. Also for precisely removing individual stray hairs. The only method officially recognised as permanently removing hair.
Is it permanent?
Yes, it is considered a permanent removal method - a destroyed follicle does not regrow. A course of sessions is needed since each hair is treated individually, but the result is lasting.
