Laser hair removal

Medical alexandrite laser hair removal, for the removal of facial and body hair, including intimate parts, for men and women.

Alexandrite laser hair removal is exclusively for medical use. Such laser equipment is in fact class 4, and must therefore only be used by doctors within licensed outpatient facilities. Medical laser hair removal treatment with alexandrite, or alexandrite derives from the name of the mineral that drives the laser beam. It is considered to be the most advanced technology in the world for epilation of unwanted hair. This is why MedikalBeauty Institute has chosen this method for its clients. ³. Read the following carefully about alexandrite medical laser hair removal treatment.

How does the alexandrite laser work?

Laser hair removal is only medical

Our doctors, experts in performing treatment with the alexandrite device, first take the person's anamnesis. They assess the phototype, the type of hair and the factors necessary to carry out the laser hair removal treatment with the best efficacy and safety.

Some warnings and indications for medical laser hair removal treatment
  • Laser hair removal treatment can be performed on the entire body. Even in the intimate parts and on the face, with the exclusion of internal mucous membrane-like areas.
  • Indicatively, a medical laser hair removal treatment involves 6 to 10 sessions. The duration of each session varies from a few minutes for a moustache to a couple of hours for the legs.
  • The medical alexandrite laser also acts on folliculitis and against unsightly ingrown hairs. The skin will be smooth and polished after the treatment.
  • It is usually very well tolerated, in fact it involves only minimal pain. Since the perception of pain is very subjective, you can give it a little try here.
  • People with fair skin and dark hair will benefit most from a laser hair removal treatment. This is considered the optimal condition for the absorption of the laser beam by the hair bulb.
  • During alexandrite laser hair removal treatment, sun exposure or tanning beds should be avoided. High-protection creams should also be used to avoid photosensitisation.
  • During the session, it is mandatory for both the client and the practitioner to wear the appropriate protective goggles to ensure maximum safety.
  • At the end of the session, the usual activities can be resumed.
  • Alexandrite laser hair removal treatment is ineffective on light-coloured or white hairs, as they are lacking or deficient in melanin. Indeed, it should be remembered that the laser's action is based precisely on the high receptivity of the melanin present in the hair bulb.

    Laser hair removal for smooth skin

    COMBATS FOLLICULITIS AND INGROWN HAIRS

    The re-growth of hair after shaving or waxing causes the annoying beard effect and often the formation of ingrown hairs, making the skin rough to the touch.
    Sometimes regrowth causes folliculitis, which is an infection of the hair follicle that can be superficial or deep. The former causes itching and irritation, the latter pustules and scarring. Medical alexandrite laser hair removal acts on the hair bulb (follicle), disintegrating it, so the very site where the infection is generated (folliculitis or ingrown hair) is eliminated.
    The skin is smooth and polished after the medical laser hair removal treatment.

    MEDICAL LASER EPILATION COSTS ALEXANDRITE
    Alexandrite laser epilation costs

    It is necessary to assess the individual area or areas to be epilated. The cost of medical laser hair removal varies greatly depending on the size of the area and also on the type and thickness of the hair. It can vary from 100 euros for a whisker laser epilation session to a few hundred euros for large areas such as the legs or chest. It is always a good idea to assess the individual case, then carry out a free, non-binding check-up. It is also important to know that by taking advantage of our customised protocols you can save up to 60% on the unit fee. Contact us without obligation to find out the cost reserved for you.

    Can it be considered an investment?

    Not having to resort to traditional hair removal systems such as waxing, razors, depilatory creams is a time saver and ultimately a money saver. The laser hair removal treatment allows us to be 'in place' without having to depilate at the last minute to go to the pool or the beach or to wear a skirt or an unbuttoned sweater. Even more so, the face knows no seasons. The moustache, chin hairs, sideburns, are often a nuisance and, for many, a constant effort to keep 'clean' and tidy. A medical laser hair removal protocol certainly involves a much higher cost than waxing, or a razor. We have in fact explained that the treatment is medical and the equipment sophisticated, but the difference over time must be assessed, as we no longer have to resort to waxing and razors.

    FOR MEDICAL LASER HAIR REMOVAL WITH ALEXANDRITE IT IS IMPORTANT TO RELY ON EXPERIENCED HANDS
    It is a medical treatment

    The alexandrite laser is a class 4 medical laser and therefore exclusively for medical use. The alexandrite hair removal laser is equipped with a directional handpiece and works in pulsed mode. The duration and intensity of the pulses is variable, so that it can be adapted to the phototype, the type of hair and the area to be treated. The doctor will assess the settings for the hair removal treatment on a case-by-case basis.

    Put your trust in experienced hands

    MedikalBeauty Institute has always been at the forefront of the epilation sector, and was among the first in Italy to adopt this method. In all our clinics, laser hair removal treatments are performed by medical personnel trained and experienced in the use of the medical laser hair removal device.

    HOW MANY ALEXANDRITE LASER HAIR REMOVAL SESSIONS ARE NEEDED?
    Number of sessions

    Indicatively, a cycle of 6 to 10 sessions is carried out at intervals of approximately one month from each other. The advisable time for medical alexandrite laser hair removal is when the follicle is in the growth phase (anagen).

    How long does the session last?

    The duration of the session depends on the area to be treated, and can vary from 15 minutes to a few hours. It depends on whether you want to depilate a small area such as a moustache, or a large area such as the legs. Several areas can be treated in a single session. It is also possible to epilate delicate areas such as groin, perianal, armpits.

    Subjectivity of treatment

    Medical laser hair removal treatment with alexandrite, like all treatments performed on the person, has different results from person to person. For the sake of fairness and transparency, we point out that precisely because of the subjectivity of the treatment, a few more sessions than initially planned may be necessary. In some cases, a few maintenance sessions may be necessary over time. Each situation is considered individually by MedikalBeauty Institute.

    THE AFTER-TREATMENT OF ALEXANDRITE MEDICAL LASER HAIR REMOVAL
    After treatment

    Post-treatment usually does not present any particular problems. At the end of the alexandrite medical laser hair removal session, you can, in principle, resume your normal activities. The treated area may be temporarily reddened or slightly irritated. It is advisable to apply an antibiotic ointment for a couple of days. When carrying out laser hair removal one should not expose oneself to the sun or tanning beds and it is a good idea to use high protection creams to avoid photosensitisation phenomena and to avoid the onset of possible dyschromia.

    In informational consent for the assisted
