Lasting results under medical supervision, in a cosmetic surgery practice.
With medical laser hair removal, say goodbye to daily shaving and painful waxing sessions.
Our laser solution gently and effectively removes unwanted hair, for lastingly smooth skin.
The principle of laser hair removal
Laser hair removal is based on selective photothermolysis: a high-energy beam targets the melanin in the hair bulb to destroy the structures responsible for regrowth, without damaging the surrounding skin.
Brown to black hair on light skin yields the best results. Current laser technologies also allow for the treatment of darker skin tones by adjusting the parameters.
6 to 7 sessions spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart are necessary for a lasting reduction.
Hair loss occurs gradually between 7 and 15 days after each session.
Why does a medical setting make a difference?
Since decree no. 2024-470 of May 24, 2024, laser hair removal for aesthetic purposes is open to institutes and nurses under training conditions.
But beyond regulations, a medical framework guarantees comprehensive care.
At Dr. Desouches' office, you will benefit from:
- Preliminary diagnosis: assessment of phototype, search for contraindications, identification of possible hormonal causes
- Expert settings: fluence, pulse duration and cooling adjusted for each patient
- Complication management: a doctor capable of adapting the protocol in real time and intervening immediately if necessary
