What exactly is Alexandrite Candela Laser Hair Removal and how does it work?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Laser Hair Removal works on the principle that light of a specific wavelength is absorbed by the melanin (the pigment) in the hair. This light is converted into heat, which destroys the hair follicle at its root, thereby inhibiting its ability to produce new hair. The laser targets hairs that are in the growth phase (anagen phase), which is why multiple sessions are required, as not all hairs are in this phase at the same time.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

      The number of sessions depends on several individualized factors, such as skin type, hair color and thickness, body area, and the type of laser used.<\/p>\n

      In general:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Results are visible from the very first session, with hair becoming thinner and softer.<\/li>\n

      • Full and permanent results are achieved on average after 10\u201312 sessions.<\/li>\n
      • For facial areas, sessions are usually performed monthly, while on the body every 1.5\u20132 months.<\/li>\n
      • Some maintenance sessions may be needed after completion, especially in hormone-dependent areas.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

        Is Laser Hair Removal a safe method?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
        \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

        Laser Hair Removal is an entirely safe method when performed by specialized medical personnel using certified equipment. Dr. Konstantinos Floros uses state-of-the-art technology following strict medical protocols. Before starting, a Patch Test (trial application) is performed on a small area to adjust the laser parameters according to your skin phototype and hair characteristics, maximizing both effectiveness and safety.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

        Can I undergo Laser Hair Removal during the summer?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
        \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

        Winter is undoubtedly the ideal time to start Laser Hair Removal treatment, as limited sun exposure allows the skin to maintain its natural color, maximizing the effectiveness of the laser beam.<\/p>\n

        <\/p>\n

        However, treatment can also be safely performed during summer, provided that the skin is not tanned and there has been no intense sun exposure or solarium use for at least 2\u20133 weeks prior. For safe results without irritation, the treated area must be carefully protected with high-SPF sunscreen, and sun exposure should be completely avoided for 1 week after the session.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

        \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

        Laser Hair Removal can be performed on women and men once a significant part of hormonal stabilization and development has been completed. The minimum age is usually 16\u201318 years, with the main requirement for girls being a stable menstrual cycle for at least two years.
