Skin Treatments
Laser hair removal treatment is a great way to get rid of unwanted hair, but how long does laser hair removal take? The answer must be upright, as this treatment has various factors.
The length of time needed depends on which part of the body needs hair removal. It can be a smaller area like the upper lip or chin or it can also be a large area of the body like the legs or back.
If you get this laser hair removal treatment for the upper lip or chin area, it will take about five minutes or less.
But, if you go for larger areas like the back or legs, the approximate time would be 30 minutes. Even if you receive the complete treatment, you will be finished in an hour.
The magical laser equipment SPLENDOR X we use is here to help you remove unwanted hair from certain body parts.
Usually, this treatment requires several sessions depending on your skin type and target area. It is to give you the best and most satisfactory results.
How Long Does Laser Hair Removal Treatment Last?
Generally, most patients are happy with this treatment because their hair re-growth does not happen for months and years.
But in some cases, the re-growth happens quickly after a few weeks of treatment. That's why, for some patients, several laser hair removal treatments are required.
What to Expect During Laser Hair Removal Treatments:
First, the targeted area or areas get cleansed thoroughly. Sometimes, patients also receive numbing gel if the area is smaller or sensitive.
It may affect the overall treatment time because the numbing gel starts working after 30-50 minutes.
The treatment will occur in a designated room where only laser treatments are used. Protective eyewear is provided to everyone in the room during the procedure.
Dermatologists use SPLENDOR X lasers to treat your skin by holding it tightly to implement the treatment. Most patients claim it feels like a warm rubber band moving on the skin.
The laser starts working by drying up the hair. You will smell a sulfur-like odor and see a few plumes of smoke caused by the laser.
Overall, procedure time varies depending on the target area you have chosen. The upper lip or chin takes 5-10 minutes, whereas larger areas like the legs or back may take up to one hour.
How Many Laser Hair Removal Treatments Do I Need?
Typically, laser treatments require collaborative sessions, but this laser hair removal treatment is specialized, so it is impossible to get the results simultaneously.
For laser hair removal treatment, we don't offer finalized treatments. Most importantly, the treatment and number of sessions depend upon the thickness and shade of your hair, skin type, and other elements..
You will notice less hair growth within a few weeks as you proceed with your treatments.
The primary purpose of different sessions is to provide you with the same results and the desired look.

Can I Get Laser Hair Removal Treatment More Often?
Usually, patients are appointed for their next session after a 4-week gap because the complete result of the first treatment comes after a week or two. After the first session results, your doctor will decide how many more treatments you need.
With BLEND X technology, you will need fewer sessions because of its single laser wavelength. Two blended laser wavelengths utilize its powerful, unique properties and provide better results.
Remember that an early stage of hair growth can give quick, effective results with lasers because not all hairs are at the same period of growth every time. So, you may need collective treatments.
In this situation, to remove your unwanted hair permanently, you may need 4 sessions; it will take up to 12 weeks for the final, desired results. The number of sessions can reach 12 as well.
Your skincare specialist will guide you well on the number of sessions you need.
Is Laser Hair Removal Treatment Safe?
Yes, laser hair removal treatment is safe for most patients, as SPLENDOR X is great for all skin types and body areas.
This powerful BLEND X technology targets the pigment in the hair, and the laser light is occupied by the pigment and transformed into heat.
Next, this heat destroys the hair follicle and holds back hair growth in the future. This world-class laser technology by BLEND X will surprise you!
But, if you are taking this treatment with an active infection or inflammatory problem, then SPLENDOR X might not suit you.
Because it can change skin pigmentation and texture, remember to speak with your dermatologist in depth about your skin condition; only they can tell you whether laser hair treatment is safe for you.
