Laser hair removal Antwerp, what does it involve?
It is a cosmetic procedure used to remove unwanted body hair in a permanent or long-term manner. We use concentrated pulses of light, known as laser light, and target the hair follicles to damage them. This stops or slows the growth of new hair. This is a very popular and effective method.
How does it work?
Laser hair removal works based on the process selective photothermolysis. During this process, concentrated laser light is directed at the hair follicles to damage them. But how exactly does this work?
It all starts with the principle of selective photothermolysis. The laser equipment emits an intense concentrated pulse of light, a laser beam with a specific wavelength. The wavelength is chosen so that the light is absorbed by the melanin pigment (gives the hair color) in the hair shaft and follicle.
The melanin in the hair follicles absorbs the laser light. Thus, the light is converted into heat.
The absorbed heat rises rapidly and heats the hair follicles, structurally damaging them. The ability to produce new hair is thus disrupted. The goal of laser treatment is to damage the hair follicles to the point that they are no longer able to support hair growth.
After treatment, it may take some time before you see results, because there is a slowdown in hair growth. During one session, not all hair follicles are destroyed because hair follicles are in different stages of growth. Therefore, it is necessary to repeat sessions to treat all hair follicles in the growth phase.
Permanent results cannot always be guaranteed, but laser hair removal can lead to long-term or even permanent reduction of hair growth. Does some hair grow back after treatment? Then this is usually thinner and lighter in color.

Frequently asked questions about medical laser hair removal
Everyone can come to us for laser hair removal: men and women of any age, as well as all different skin tones. Only very light and gray hairs can not be treated.
We recommend caution the day of hair removal itself until 2 days after treatment. Also, be sure to use a high sunscreen when going outside.
Our hair always grows in different phases. The anagen phase or growth phase, the catagen phase or transition phase, the telogen phase or resting phase and finally the exogenous phase or shedding phase. Since not every hair is in the same phase, several sessions are required. This is the only way we can be sure to target almost 80% of hairs. It usually involves – for an area with normal hair growth – 6 to 8 treatments.
Sure! Our laser can be adjusted to any skin tone for efficient and long-lasting results.
Difficult. Because the laser reacts to melanin (color) in the hair, a certain amount of pigment must be present. Blond hair contains little to no melanin and will not react as well; white and gray do not react at all.
Most people do not experience laser hair removal as unpleasant. However, the armpits or intimate area may feel slightly more sensitive for a while after treatment.
The ideal laser length is a few millimeters. If you last shave the area to be treated two days in advance, your hairs will always have the optimal length.
Unfortunately, this is not possible. A tattoo contains a lot of pigment to which the laser can react. If you still want to have this area depilated, we will have to avoid the tattoo as much as possible.
No harm can come from it, though this area can be a bit more sensitive.
A package price is provided starting from 6 treatments.
