Understanding Laser Hair Reduction

Laser hair reduction is a safe and long-term solution to unwanted hair on the face and body. It works by using focused light energy to target and damage hair follicles, reducing their ability to grow back. Unlike shaving, waxing, or threading, laser treatments offer smoother skin with lasting results and minimal effort.

Modern laser technology is now suitable for all skin types, including Indian skin, and is commonly used for areas like the face, underarms, legs, bikini line, chest, and back.

How We Care for Laser Hair Reduction at Dr. Mukadam’s Clinic

At Dr. K. E. Mukadam’s clinic, we use advanced laser systems that combine safety with high performance. Each session is customised based on your skin tone, hair thickness, and treatment area.

Before starting, we assess your skin and hair type to determine the correct laser settings. A cooling gel or cooling tip is used during the procedure to minimise discomfort. Most sessions take between 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the area. Typically, a series of 6–8 sessions is recommended for optimal results, spaced 4–6 weeks apart.

What to Expect When You Visit Us

Your first visit includes a detailed consultation where we:

• Assess your skin and hair type

• Discuss medical history or hormonal issues (if any)

• Do a test patch to check skin response

• Plan a treatment schedule that fits your lifestyle

The procedure itself is quick and virtually painless, often described as a snapping rubber band feeling. Post-treatment, mild redness may appear, which usually settles within a few hours. You’ll receive aftercare tips like sun protection and avoiding hot showers for 24 hours.
