Frequently asked Questions

How does Laser Hair Removal work?

During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the tube-shaped sacs within the skin (hair follicles) that produce hairs. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth. The darker and the thicker a hair is the more pigment it will hold, and the more light it will absorb. The regrowth of hair will be slower and finer after just two sessions. That hair is eventually destroyed for a mostly permanent solution.

Is it safe?

Both the Soprano and Candela laser systems are designed with advanced safety features, making them suitable for a wide range of skin types when used by a trained professional. These devices precisely target the hair follicle while protecting the surrounding skin, reducing the risk of irritation or damage. During your consultation at Swiss Aesthetics, our qualified practitioners will assess your skin type, hair characteristics, and medical history to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for you. Your comfort and safety are always our top priority

Is it suitable for me?

The Soprano and Candela system is safe to use on all skin types, from level 1 to 6 on the Fitzpatrick scale. It can even be used on tanned skin as it targets the melanin pigment in the hair follicles. However, it may not be effective on very fine hair.

Is it painful?

The treatment is not usually painful, but some people may experience a slight twinge, similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. After the treatment, you may experience mild redness or sensitivity.

Who should avoid this treatment?

The Soprano and Candela system is not recommended for people with ginger, white or grey hair, as the laser is not effective on these hair colours. Additionally, if you have certain medical conditions, sunburn, or are pregnant, it is not recommended that you receive this treatment.

What are the side effects?

After the treatment, you may experience mild redness and sensitivity for a few hours to a couple of days. The treated hair roots will gradually fall out.

How often should I receive treatments, and when will I see results?

Most patients will require approximately 6-8 sessions, with one session per month, for optimal results. After each treatment, you will notice a significant improvement. In some cases, additional sessions may be required every 6-12 months.
