Laser hair removal: a safe solution to eliminate unwanted hair
Laser hair removal is a technique that uses targeted light to penetrate the skin precisely, without causing damage to the skin or surrounding tissues.

The benefits of laser hair removal
Laser hair removal offers many advantages compared to traditional hair removal methods.
Long-lasting results and time savings
First and foremost, it delivers long-term results. Unlike waxing, shaving, or depilatory creams, laser hair removal targets hair follicles directly to destroy them, significantly reducing regrowth.
This leads to fewer hairs over time and less time spent on hair removal sessions.
A safe and reliable option
Another key benefit of laser hair removal is its precision. The laser beam can be adjusted to precisely target dark hairs while preserving the skin.
This minimizes the risk of burns or skin irritation, making laser hair removal a safe and trustworthy method.
A solution for ingrown hairs
Laser hair removal, being a permanent method, gives excellent results on areas prone to ingrown hairs. As the hair is progressively destroyed, these types of lesions naturally disappear over the course of treatment.
A cost-effective alternative
Over the long term, laser hair removal can also be more economical. While the initial cost may seem higher than other methods, sessions significantly reduce regrowth, meaning fewer regular visits to the beautician or purchases of expensive hair removal products.
In short, the advantages of laser hair removal include long-lasting results, improved precision, and long-term savings. These benefits make it an attractive option for those who want to remove hair in an effective and convenient way.
How laser hair removal works
This non-invasive technique uses a concentrated beam of light to target and destroy hair follicles.
The laser energy is absorbed by the melanin in the hair, heating it up and damaging it selectively without affecting the surrounding skin.
In other words, the laser light is converted into heat to destroy the hair root. The follicle is eliminated, preventing future regrowth.
The number of sessions needed varies based on several factors, including each person’s unique physiology.
Laser hair removal for women and men: a full-body solution
Permanent laser hair removal is suitable for both women and men who wish to permanently eliminate unwanted hair.
In all of our Epilia centers, we offer laser hair removal sessions for all parts of the body—whether for aesthetic purposes or therapeutic reasons (such as ingrown hairs, folliculitis, etc.).
Caution and guidance: which type of laser should you choose?
Before beginning a laser treatment, it’s essential to understand the hair removal method and the type of laser being used.
Not all lasers are created equal: some are not suitable for certain skin tones or hair colors, while others may prove ineffective in the long term—or even pose health risks.
That’s why caution and proper information are critical.
Laser hair removal vs. IPL: what’s the difference?
Often confused, laser hair removal and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) are two very different techniques—in terms of both safety and effectiveness.
IPL uses multiple types of light.
Its energy is less powerful and less targeted than laser, which significantly reduces its effectiveness. As a result, IPL provides only temporary or short-term results, as it merely weakens the hair follicle.
Laser, on the other hand, emits a much more powerful and selective light beam that destroys the hair bulb, thus delivering truly permanent hair removal.
The Candela Alexandrite Laser
In all our Epilia centers, we use the Candela Alexandrite laser, a global leader in dermatological and aesthetic laser technology.
Alexandrite, a semi-precious stone, is used to filter light (with a wavelength of 755 nanometers), which is then absorbed by the melanin in the hair. This technology allows for precise penetration of the laser beam without requiring high intensity.
Scientific studies have shown that Alexandrite currently delivers the best results for light to medium skin tones.
At Epilia, we combine the Alexandrite laser with the Zimmer cooling system—a device that provides an anesthetic effect, ensuring optimal comfort during your sessions.
