How Laser Hair Removal Works

Laser hair removal works by delivering focused light energy into the hair follicle. The pigment (melanin) within the hair absorbs this energy, converting it into heat that disables the follicle’s ability to produce future hair.

Because hair grows in cycles, treatments are most effective during the active growth phase. A series of sessions is required to achieve optimal, long-lasting reduction.

The Clarity II Difference

At ENIC, laser hair removal is performed using Clarity II by Cynosure, a premium dual-wavelength laser platform designed for unmatched speed, precision, and versatility.

Clarity II combines 755 nm Alexandrite and 1064 nm Nd:YAG wavelengths in a single system, allowing treatments to be customized for each patient’s skin tone, hair type, and treatment area.

This dual-wavelength technology includes:

  • 755 nm Alexandrite: Ideal for lighter skin tones and finer hair, offering high melanin absorption and excellent precision.
  • 1064 nm Nd:YAG: Penetrates deeper and bypasses epidermal melanin, making it exceptionally safe and effective for darker skin tones and tanned skin.

This dual capability allows ENIC to safely treat all Fitzpatrick skin types while maintaining exceptional results.

Most individuals seeking a permanent reduction of unwanted hair are excellent candidates for this treatment. Thanks to Clarity II’s dual-wavelength technology, treatments can be safely tailored to all skin tones and hair types.

A personalized consultation is recommended to assess your goals, skin type, and determine the most suitable treatment plan for you.

What to Expect During and After Laser Hair Removal

Patients often want clarity around comfort and treatment timelines before starting laser hair removal. Modern laser technology is designed to enhance comfort while delivering consistent, progressive results, helping set clear and realistic expectations for the treatment process.

Is Laser Hair Removal Painful?

Most patients describe the sensation as mild warmth or quick pinpricks. Clarity II’s advanced cooling system significantly enhances comfort, and an anesthetic is typically not required. Temporary redness or mild swelling may occur and usually resolves within a few hours.

For optimal results, most patients require 5–7 treatments, spaced approximately 4–6 weeks apart, depending on the treatment area and individual hair growth cycle.

exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanners for two weeks prior. Waxing or tweezing should also be avoided to keep the follicles intact for effective laser treatment.

Can laser hair removal be performed year-round?

Laser hair removal can be performed at any time of year, though extra care is required during sunnier months. Avoiding sun exposure before and after treatment is crucial for maintaining safety and achieving optimal results.

Will laser hair removal permanently remove hair?

Laser hair removal provides long-term hair reduction, rather than complete removal. Treated hair becomes finer and lighter over time, and many patients opt for occasional maintenance treatments to maintain results.

Is laser hair removal safe for sensitive areas?

Laser hair removal is a safe and effective option for sensitive areas, including the face and bikini line, when performed by trained professionals using advanced technology like Clarity II. Treatment settings are carefully tailored to ensure the protection of delicate skin while achieving effective results.

What risks or side effects should I be aware of?

Laser hair removal is considered very safe when performed correctly. Temporary side effects may include mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity in the treated area. Rare risks include blistering, pigment changes, or irritation—most often associated with sun exposure before or after treatment. Following pre- and post-care instructions significantly minimizes these risks.

Can laser hair removal treat light or fine hair?

Laser hair removal works best on darker hair due to its higher melanin content. However, Clarity II’s advanced technology with a 1 ms pulse targets finer hair more effectively than older systems. Results depend on individual hair characteristics.

How long should I wait between sessions if I miss an appointment?

If a session is delayed, treatment can typically resume without issue. Your provider may adjust the schedule slightly to align with your hair growth cycle and ensure continued effectiveness.

Can I combine laser hair removal with other treatments?

Yes. Many patients combine laser hair removal with other non-invasive aesthetic treatments offered at ENIC. Your provider can recommend appropriate timing to ensure safety and optimal results when pairing treatments.
