Medical laser hair removal in Monaco

Smooth skin, for the long term.

Laser hair removal reduces hair growth over the long term, whereas shaving, waxing or creams only work for a short time. The centre is equipped with a DEKA Synchro Replay laser combining two wavelengths: alexandrite (755 nm) and long-pulse Nd:YAG (1064 nm). It can treat all areas of the body, including the face, and different skin types, including tanned skin, after a preliminary test.

How the treatment works

The laser

Two wavelengths in one device: 755 nm alexandrite and long-pulse 1064 nm Nd:YAG. The doctor adjusts the treatment to your skin, the area and the hair type.

Possible approaches

  • Alexandrite 755 nm
  • Nd:YAG 1064 nm

Sensations

As the laser passes, you feel a slight pinch or warmth. Anaesthesia is usually unnecessary; a local anaesthetic cream can be used if needed. The skin may redden for a few hours. Direct sun exposure must be avoided after the session.

Possible approaches

  • Preliminary test
  • Soothing cream if needed

Number of sessions

Each hair follows a cycle of growth, regression and rest, and the laser only acts on growing hairs. As not all hairs in an area are in the same phase, several sessions are needed: usually 5 to 10 depending on the area, thickness and hair type.

Possible approaches

  • 5 to 10 sessions

Frequently asked questions

Is laser hair removal permanent?

It reduces hair growth in the treated areas for the long term, far longer than shaving, waxing or creams. The number of sessions depends on the area, thickness and hair type.

Can laser hair removal be done on tanned skin?

The centre’s laser includes a wavelength (1064 nm Nd:YAG) suited to darker or tanned skin. A preliminary test is always carried out to anticipate the skin’s reaction.

How many sessions are needed?

Usually 5 to 10, because the laser only acts on growing hairs and the hair cycle can last more than six months depending on the area.

What precautions after a session?

Avoid direct sun exposure after the session. Slight redness may last a few hours; a specific cream may be recommended.
