Laser hair removal of legs in Lviv

Laser hair removal of legs is one of the most popular procedures in the field of aesthetic cosmetology. Of course, every woman dreams of looking elegant and charming. To get the result, you should make every effort. It is exhausting, especially endless shaving of legs.

Be that as it may, the modern lifestyle does not allow us to neglect aesthetics. And legs without hair look much more attractive even from the point of view of their owner. In winter, you can cheat, hiding the fluffiness under warm stockings or pants. But summer, unfortunately or fortunately, does not give women such privileges. How to make legs perfectly smooth? What hair removal procedure will be pleasant and will take a minimum of free time?

The modern beauty industry offers many methods of removing unwanted hair, but almost all of them bring a temporary effect. Razors, creams, wax and sugar paste – some manipulations leave irritation, others cause ingrown hairs, some products are dangerous due to their composition and the presence of chemicals, and there are also such methods that can even leave scars on the skin after using them. Yes, women are ready to perform a feat or make a sacrifice, but why should they take such a risk!

An invention that turned the world of female perfection upside down

Laser hair removal of legs in Lviv is one of the most relevant procedures in our time. Hair follicles are exposed to a high-concentration light beam. The pigment contained in the hair absorbs this light, which, in fact, destroys the hair. After a few weeks, the hair shaft falls out.

Unlike sugaring, laser hair removal is performed quickly and painlessly. It does not cause folliculitis and does not contribute to the appearance of blackheads. Other manipulations often end with side effects and it will be extremely unpleasant when the hair on the legs becomes even harder and thicker after a lot of effort. Laser hair removal is the best option for quickly removing unwanted vegetation. The device’s beam does not injure the skin, so the session will be as comfortable as possible for the client of the Mediostar clinic. Our specialists have extensive experience and know how to use the latest equipment, so they will perform the procedure quickly and painlessly.

What clients of the clinic in Lviv ask

Laser hair removal of the legs only at first glance seems mysterious and scary. However, its implementation raises a lot of questions. Some clients are upset that the laser beam is unable to remove gray and blond hair. The fact is that it directly affects the hair bulb, which contains pigment (melanin). That is why dark hair on the legs is removed best, which cannot be said about light hair, because it does not contain pigment.

How many sessions of laser hair removal in Lviv are needed to achieve maximum results? One or two procedures will not be enough, you need to visit a cosmetologist at least 4-8 times. The fact is that the hair growth process consists of three phases:

• growth stage (anagen);
• transitional stage (catagen);
• resting stage (telogen).

The duration of each phase is different and depends on the age and type of follicle. In the first stage, the hair grows actively. The second stage of growth is called intermediate: at this time the hair is no longer growing, but the papilla cells are still functioning. In the third stage, hair growth stops completely. The functioning of the hair is arranged in such a way that under the influence of the growth of a new hair, the old one falls out, after which the new one goes through all the cycles listed above.

The first stage of hair growth can last up to 2-4 years, the second – about 20 days, the third – up to 6 months. If we evaluate all human hair as a whole at a certain moment, then about 93% of it is in the first phase of growth. An adult has about 100,000 hairs on the body. The number of hairs depends on what color they are. Interestingly, blondes have the most of them on their bodies. In fact, in such a short form, we can explain why a specific number of procedures is needed and why you should not interrupt laser hair removal sessions of the legs or ignore the compliance of the intervals between procedures.

What else are you interested in? How quickly will the legs become smooth? To achieve a positive result of laser hair removal, you need to visit an average of up to 8 procedures. In this case, the interval between the 1st and 2nd session is a month, between the 2nd and 3rd session – a month and a half, between the 3rd and 4th – already two months, between each subsequent one – also 2 months. A full course of leg hair removal lasts about a year. Given the individual characteristics of the body, in some cases it may be longer. To achieve a long-term effect, you should do preventive leg hair removal procedures once a year or six months.
