If you are considering laser hair removal, you have likely wondered at least once how often you should get treatments. It is said that the interval between sessions is more important than the number of sessions alone to achieve the best results.

Today, I’m going to summarize everything for you in one go, from the principles of laser hair removal to the intervals and number of sessions, who it is recommended for, and post-treatment care methods!

1. Principle of Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is a procedure that destroys hair follicles and roots through thermal energy using a laser that selectively acts on the melanin pigment in the hair.

It is said that the laser is absorbed by the black melanin pigment in the hair follicles and converted into thermal energy, which destroys the follicles and prevents body hair from growing.

2. Features of Clarity II Laser Hair Removal

It is said that Maypure laser hair removal uses Clarity II. Clarity II is said to have the following features.

 

1) Powerful cooling effect

First of all, it is said that there is almost no pain during the procedure because it has a powerful cooling effect.

 

2) Minimize skin damage

It is also said that it can reduce damage to the surrounding skin because it selectively destroys only the hair follicles.

 

3) Short procedure time

It is said that hair removal is possible quickly because it is a non-contact laser device and the treatment time is relatively short.

 

The event price for Maypure laser hair removal is 6,000 won per session for women (underarms, philtrum, and glabella) and 15,000 won per session for men. For first-time visitors, the treatment is available for 900 won for women and 1,900 won for men.

3. Laser hair removal interval and frequency

If you are considering laser hair removal, you may be wondering about the interval or number of sessions required. Regarding the interval, it is said that receiving treatments during the hair growth phase is effective.

 

1) Laser hair removal interval: 4~8 weeks

Hair naturally goes through a cycle of shedding and growing back in the growth, shedding, and resting phases, so it is recommended to repeat the treatment at intervals of 4 to 8 weeks in accordance with the hair growth cycle.

 

2) Number of laser hair removal sessions

While it is important to maintain the scheduled intervals for laser hair removal treatments, receiving the appropriate number of sessions is also crucial. Although the number of treatments varies depending on the thickness and amount of hair, it is generally recommended to undergo at least 10 to 15 sessions for effective results.

4. Recommended for Laser Hair Removal

It is said that laser hair removal is recommended for the following people.

 

1) Hairless, smooth skin If you want

2) Skin trouble from self-shaving If you are worried because this happens frequently

3) Neat and tidy grooming If you want

4) With self-hair removal pigmentation If you are worried because of this

5. Post-Laser Hair Removal Care Methods

If you have undergone laser hair removal, aftercare is also said to be important. It is recommended to perform consistent care in your daily life as described below.

 

1) Use sunscreen

First of all, it is said that it is important to apply sunscreen thoroughly because laser hair removal can damage the skin and there is a high possibility of hyperpigmentation if exposed to UV rays.

2) Use moisturizer

Since the procedure uses thermal energy, the skin may become dry. Therefore, it is recommended to use a moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated.

 

3) Avoid strenuous exercise

It is said that engaging in strenuous exercise that causes heavy sweating after underarm laser hair removal can lead to folliculitis as the sweat irritates the skin. Therefore, it is recommended to avoid intense exercise for about a week after laser hair removal.

6. Q&A

1) Can I feel severe pain during laser hair removal?

While it varies by individual sensitivity, it is generally painless or causes very little pain. Additionally, the degree of pain felt differs depending on the hair removal area and individual sensitivity.

 

2) Is it necessary to shave before laser hair removal?

Shaving the day before the procedure is essential because excessive hair length increases the risk of burns. If you have thick, fast-growing hair like a man, shaving on the day of the procedure is recommended; if you have thin hair like a woman, shaving the day before is recommended.
