Say Goodbye to Unwanted Hair – Welcome Smooth, Carefree Skin!

Laser Hair Reduction

Are you tired of the constant cycle of shaving, waxing, and other short-term hair removal methods? Laser hair reduction offers a more lasting solution by targeting unwanted hair with advanced light-based technology. At Cutis, we provide safe and effective laser treatments designed to reduce hair growth while protecting your skin, giving you smooth, hassle-free results with the guidance of experienced professionals.

How It Works?

Laser hair reduction in Singapore removes unwanted hair by targeting the pigment or melanin in the follicles. It involves the use of a handheld device that delivers concentrated pulses of laser light pulses into the follicles. The pigment absorbs the light and converts it into heat, which in turn damages the follicles and stunts hair growth.

At Cutis, we use an Nd:YAG laser, which has a 1064 nm wavelength. A1064 nm wavelength is ideal for darker or tanned complexions, as it bypasses the melanin in the skin and solely targets the pigment of the follicle. It uses a handheld device that delivers concentrated pulses of laser light that damage the follicles and halt future hair growth.

Our hair removal systems have undergone rigorous clinical evaluations and US FDA approval which gives us, and our patients, assurance that it is safe to use. The actual device used will depend on your skin type and will be discussed during the consultation.

FAQs

What are the benefits of laser hair reduction?

1. Provides significant hair reduction 2. Delivers light energy to hundreds of follicles at a time 3. Can treat large areas safely and effectively 4. Can treat different skin types and tones, including darker skin

What are the treatable areas?

Almost any area can be treated, including Face (beard, upper lip), Underarms, Arms, Legs, Chest, Back, Bikini, and Brazilian.

What results can you expect? 

These vary from patient to patient. After the initial treatment, however, you can expect about 10 to 25% hair reduction in the treated area. Some enjoy permanent hair reduction for several months, or in some cases a year. You may also see some hair regrowth, but it is fine and less noticeable. Factors that can affect the number of treatments needed and results of your laser hair reduction include Hair color, Hair thickness, The area treated, Skin color, Type of laser or device used, and Hormonal fluctuations.

How many treatments will you need?

Most patients need between two and six laser treatments to have smooth and almost hair-free skin. Some patients report permanent hair reduction, while others may require a touch-up session every six to twelve months.

Is there downtime?

Generally, it does not require real downtime, although there may be redness and mild swelling in the treated area immediately after the procedure. Most patients, however, return to their normal activities. 

Do the treated hair follicles grow back?

Treated hair follicles in the active growth stage are permanently damaged and should not grow back. Do take note, however, that follicles that were not in the said stage will still have to be treated.  There are also instances where patients can see fine hairs after the initial treatment due to hormonal fluctuations (in pregnancy, menopause, stress, or changes in medications). Touch-up treatments are recommended.

Are there side effects?

Temporary side effects include redness, swelling, and itching immediately after the treatment. They are usually minor and can last for a few hours or days. There are rare side effects, such as blistering and scarring, especially when the procedure is done by an unskilled person or if you don’t follow pre- and post-treatment instructions.
