What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal works by using a laser light to target the hair follicle. This energy causes the hair follicle to become damaged, and then destroyed. This prevents the follicle from being able to produce further hairs. The hair follicle will absorb the intense beam of light that is delivered by the laser. Despite this, the tissue surrounding the area will remain unaffected. The term for this procedure is ‘selective photothermolysis’. It is selective because only the hair is targeted and not the skin.

The Laser Hair Removal Treatment
At Euphoria Medical Center, we offer a range of the most advanced laser hair removal treatments to suit all hair and skin types and colors, allowing even darker complexions to enjoy a permanent reduction to hair regrowth. During the procedure, light pulses are used to penetrate the skin and heat the hair follicles, effectively damaging the surrounding tissues to prevent growth.
​
All patients are required to attend a thorough consultation and skin analysis with our skin specialist prior to organizing any treatments. Not only will this allow us to assess the condition of the unwanted hair and recommend the best course of treatment, but patients will be able to ask any questions they may have to feel totally at ease with their bespoke treatment plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Does it hurt?While everyone experiences different levels of pain, you may feel some discomfort and needle stick pain.
-
Are there any side effects?There may be some swelling or bruising for a few days. The results commonly improve over time, as the swelling subsides, and the filler settles more naturally – this process often takes up to 2 weeks.
-
Am I suitable for Fillers treatment?This treatment is not suitable for anyone who is pregnant, breastfeeding or has severe allergic reactions
-
Fillers Aftercare?The following may assist with recovery and results: Following the instructions provided by our specialists before and after your treatment Stay upright following your treatment for 3-4 hours Avoid sleeping for 3-4 hours after the treatment (to avoid pressing the treated area) Take arnica supplements and apply arnica cream Avoid strenuous exercise following the treatment Limit your sun exposure Apply a cold compress to the treated area Avoid facial treatments or other treatments on the area Should you experience any symptoms, notify us so we can best assist you. To maintain the effect of your treatment, you will require further follow ups.
-
When will I see results?Most patients will notice immediate results following their filler treatment. However, note that it can take 7-10 days to notice the final results, which is when any potential bruising, swelling or redness subsides.
-
How long do the results last?This will depend on your own metabolism. Some people will break down the fillers more quickly than others. A general rule of thumb is that fillers typically last longer in the areas that move the least – such as cheeks, in comparison to lips, which may last a little less time. To maintain the effectiveness of your Fillers treatment, you will require further follow-ups, but you can expect your cheek fillers to last for 6 months and more.
-
What are the benefits of Fillers?Quick – most treatments take approximately 30 minutes to perform. Faster and more effective than creams – the treatment results are much faster than those achieved when using skincare. Long-lasting results – whilst long-lasting, most fillers are not permanent and are reversible. Natural Results – in the hands of the right, medically trained, artistic hands, such is the team selected to work at Euphoria Medical Center©, the results can be very natural and complement your own natural beauty.
