How long should I stay out of the sun after permanent hair removal?

You should avoid intense exposure to the sun or tanning beds for 1 week before and after treatment. If you do have to go out in the sun, we recommend covering your skin with clothing and applying sunscreen with at least SPF 50.

Can permanent hair removal be performed with a tattoo?

The tattooed part of the skin cannot be treated during permanent hair removal. We cover these areas and omit them during treatment.

When does hair fall out during permanent hair removal?

The first results can be noticeable as early as the 1st session. Hair grows in cycles. About 10% of the hair that is currently visible and growing is in the anagen phase, which we can successfully treat during the session. After the treatment, these hairs are still in the skin. They fall out after about 1-3 weeks (depending on the body area). The first results are then visible.

How long does a permanent hair removal treatment take?

The hairs are in different growth cycles during a treatment. During a treatment, the light pulse or another type of laser can destroy only those hair roots that are in the anagen (growth) phase. For each treatment, this is about 10 - 15% of the hairs. The hairs that are in the resting phase during treatment will grow back at intervals of about 4 - 12 weeks. During the next treatment, the new hairs that are currently in the growth phase are removed. With each subsequent treatment, body hair in the affected area steadily decreases.

How long does permanent hair removal last?

Normally, permanent hair removal ensures that you are rid of unwanted hair for a long time, because the hair roots are permanently damaged. When hairs do grow back, they are usually fewer and much lighter and thinner. Therefore, after a successfully completed treatment cycle, we recommend a so-called maintenance treatment of one additional session after one year.

Can light colored hair be treated during permanent hair removal?

All skin and hair types can be treated with the medical devices we use. Even tanned skin and blond hair can be treated. Only white or gray hair cannot be treated. People with dark hair and light skin have the best results; only gray hair or hair with a very light blonde hue can expect limited results from hair removal. During the consultation before the first treatment, the client's skin type should be determined and your Angel will discuss the possible results under current conditions.

When can a permanent hair removal treatment not be performed?

There are indications with which we have no experience and in which it is not possible to make a definitive judgment as to whether a permanent hair removal treatment can be performed. We therefore strongly recommend that you consult your doctor before treatment if you have any doubts about your skin or hair. If the following contraindications are present, treatment is not possible: - Diabetes - Psoriasis (acute in the treatment area) - Neurodermatitis (acute in the treated area) - Open skin patches (acute in the treatment area) - Eczema, dermatitis (acute in the treatment area) - Dark birthmarks ("ABCDE rule") (these areas are covered and omitted during treatment). - Tattoos (these areas are covered and omitted during treatment) - Skin tumors - Skin cancer (treatment is not possible even if the skin cancer is already cured). - Preparations that increase skin sensitivity to light (e.g., St. John's wort or malaria prophylaxis) - vitiligo - epilepsy - Cancer (unhealed cancer of any kind) - (You must be cancer-free for at least 5 years). - Pregnancy and breastfeeding - HIV/AIDS

Is permanent hair removal harmful?

Permanent hair removal is not harmful or dangerous to the body. The light pulses penetrate only 2-6 mm deep into the skin. Therefore, there is no risk to internal organs and the like. No cosmetic procedure is guaranteed to be free of certain side effects. In rare cases, for example, sensitive skin may experience skin irritation, but this usually disappears after a few days. However, if you adhere to all the above measures and listen to the advice of your trained Angel, no risks are to be expected.
