What exactly does forearm laser hair removal involve?
Removing unwanted hair on the arms is a common wish among women. Fortunately, permanent hair removal of the arms offers a popular and effective solution. With this treatment, unwanted hair is permanently removed and both arms are treated, from below the elbow to the wrist. Since the arms are among the larger treatment areas, a session usually takes around twenty-five minutes. Would you like to get rid of other unwanted hair too? Then consider also trying laser hair removal for the armpits, hands and legs.
Which factors affect my forearm laser treatment?
There are several factors that can influence your laser treatment for the arms. Laser hair removal is suitable for all skin tones, but the success of the treatment depends on the contrast between your skin and hair. It can be more challenging to treat dark hair on dark skin or light hair on light skin, which may require more sessions. But do not worry, we also offer the option of electric hair removal for these cases. Genetics and the hair growth cycle also play a role. If you have strong hair growth or high hormone levels, you may need extra sessions. Have you waxed in the past? Waxing reduces hair growth in the long term, so you may have less hair to treat. In that case, six treatments may be sufficient.
How to prepare for forearm laser treatment?
Forearm laser hair removal is fairly simple. It is a quick and convenient way to remove unwanted hair. Here are some tips!
- Keep your arms out of the sun by wearing long sleeves.
- Avoid tanning beds or intense UV radiation.
- Tell your therapist about any medication you are taking.
- Cleanse your skin and keep it free of lotions, creams, moisturisers, perfumes and make-up.
- Make sure you shave 48 hours beforehand, or at least three hours before your session.
When will I see results after laser hair removal on my arms?
Permanent hair removal of the forearms is a convenient solution for getting rid of unwanted hair, but it is not a quick fix. Each session only tackles up to 20% of the hair. So after each session you will see a reduction of about 20% of your hair. After a week the hair already starts to fall out, and after the third session you should already have lost at least 50% of the hair. But note, to make the treatment effective it is important to schedule each session about four to six weeks apart. If you do not do this, it will take longer before you achieve the desired results. So stay consistent and stick to the schedule!
