It is often difficult for therapists to answer questions about their patients' concerns. It is important to know the difference between the types of laser machines and to know how different their effectiveness is in laser hair removal or laser skin treatments. At Skeily we strive to provide the best advice, service, and prices for laser hair removal machine. For this reason, we have compiled a list of the ten most common questions customers ask about laser treatments and answered below.

How many treatments are required for laser hair removal?

The number of treatments required varies for each client. It may take several treatments to reduce visible hair, as there are several cycles of hair growth and a certain number of hairs may only grow at a given time. The optimal number of treatments is usually between six and ten. The thickness and pigment of the hair also determine how effective the treatment is and how many sessions are needed. The more contrasting the skin and hair color, the more effective the treatment.

When I was in the sun, using tanned or sunless tanning products; Can I be treated with a laser?

Many of the Candela lasers target the melanin/pigment in the skin. For this reason, we advise the patient to avoid sun exposure, sunbeds, and sunless tanning products at least two weeks prior to treatment and two weeks after treatment. The YAG laser is the only product that can be used on tan patients to reduce hair growth. However, patients should continue to avoid sun exposure and sunbathing one week prior to treatment and two weeks after treatment.

How long does it take for a hair to die after a laser treatment?

After LASE treatment, it takes up to two weeks for the hair to dissolve and up to three weeks after GentleYAG treatment.

How deep does the laser penetrate the skin?

The laser penetration depth is changeable. The depth depends on the wavelength. The longer the wavelength, the deeper the penetration.

Do the laser damage organs and lymph nodes?

No, due to the low penetration, neither the organs nor the lymph nodes should absorb the laser light.

Do your legs need to be shaved clean for hair removal?

Yes, all areas of the body that are being treated need to be shaved clean. Treatment areas should be shaved the day before treatment. Hair remaining above the skin surface absorbs the light intended for the hair follicle.

Can patients train before or after the treatment of leg veins?

Patients undergoing treatment for leg veins should not exercise on the day of treatment. These clients should not exercise five days after treatment for the leg veins. Patients should also avoid overly hot baths and showers, steam baths or saunas, alcohol and medicines that may dilute the blood.

What is the distance between laser treatments?

Usually, most treatments take 4 to 6 weeks. However, this depends on the indication to be treated and the place where the treatment is performed on the body.

For hair removal, facial, underarm and bikini treatments should be performed every 4-6 weeks, while every 8-10 weeks treatments are required for the trunk of the body. Treatments for the extremities should be done every 10-12 weeks.

For pigmented lesions, treatment is recommended 4 weeks apart.

Face and upper body vascular treatments are usually performed every 4-6 weeks and for lower extremities or leg veins every 10-12 weeks.

There are a number of medications that can cause photosensitivity; Is this important for patients undergoing laser treatment?

Certainly! It is essential to obtain information about medications that a patient takes during the consultation. The therapist can then advise whether the patient should continue the medication or what effect the medication may have on the treatment. Patients should not take Accutane for at least 6 months before diode laser hair removal machine therapy. For other treatments, a test point may need to be performed if there is a concern about a side effect. Retinoids should not be taken 3-5 days before treatment. This is due to the excessive redness that they can cause.

Is there a guarantee for hair removal?

Clinical studies have shown a success rate of 80-90% in laser hair removal. However, every patient speaks differently about laser treatments
