Laser Hair Removal

Many different methods and tools are available for hair removal, but laser hair removal stands out among these methods due to its efficiency, precision and long-lasting results.

Laser hair removal targets hair follicles directly, inhibiting future growth. This results in smoother skin and significantly reduces the need for frequent maintenance.

FRAC3 Hair Removal

Medical practitioners at Trinity Medical Aesthetics clinic use Fotona’s innovative Nd:YAG laser systems. Fotona’s Nd:YAG lasers incorporate revolutionary pulse-control technology and a proprietary three-dimensional treatment pattern FRAC3 to provide safe and effective hair reduction. The 1064 nm Nd:YAG FRAC3 method is optimized to deliver high-intensity laser pulses in an extremely short time to destroy most hair types while avoiding unnecessary epidermal damage.

• Nd:YAG laser energy is absorbed selectively by the hair bulb and hair matrix, thus destroying the hair follicle.
• FRAC3 pulse produces a 3D fractional pattern within the epidermis and dermis, targeting the hair follicles while leaving surrounding tissues unaffected.

This approach enhances the safety and comfort of the procedure and also promotes faster healing and minimizes the risk of side effects such as hyperpigmentation or scarring.

• Permanent hair reduction.
• Gentle, fast and convenient.
• Long-lasting results.
• No ingrown hair, irritated or infected skin.
• Suitable for larger and smaller areas.

Safe for All Skin Types

One of the challenges when performing laser hair removal is the relatively low absorption of laser light in the treated hair, especially when the hair is blond and/or the skin is dark. Unlike other wavelengths, only Nd:YAG is safe and effective to use on all skin types.

Low-energy FRAC3 laser pulses are delivered to the same skin area several times during the same session, causing a gradual increase in the absorption of the laser energy in the hair. This leads to effective hair removal and makes the treatment much more comfortable. Due to the relatively low absorption of melanin, Nd:YAG laser treatments can be used safely even with darker skin types.

For All Body Areas

The Nd:YAG laser source has the depth of penetration necessary to reach and destroy even the deepest hair follicles and can successfully be used on all body areas.

Cost-effective Solution for Long-term Hair Reduction

Our professional medical practitioners with Fotona’s Nd:YAG laser can treat large areas such as the legs, back and chest, making laser treatments one of the most cost-effective solutions for long-term hair reduction. Fotona’s high peak-power laser pulses provide the speed and efficiency needed to uniformly cover large scanning areas.

Expected Results

Most patients can expect a significant reduction in unwanted hair, and any future hair growth will usually be thinner and lighter, and thus much less pronounced than before.

The success of hair reduction treatments depends largely on a patient’s skin and hair type. We adjust laser parameters according to your skin type, hair thickness, hair colour as well as the depth of hair follicles. Depending on the size of the treatment area, between three to five sessions, six to eight weeks apart will lead to a significant aesthetic result.

Special post-treatment care is not required. Treated follicles should fall out in approximately 2-3 weeks. Observe if new growth is present and repeat the treatment if needed. The treatment schedule will depend on each individual’s hair growth cycle.

Risks & Side Effects

Some side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and mild discomfort in the treated area. Usually, they subside within a few hours to a few days. Skin irritation or changes in pigmentation can also occur.

Consultation before the treatment can help ensure that the procedure is tailored to your specific skin type and hair characteristics. Schedule a consultation with our professional medical practitioners to achieve smooth, hair-free skin.
