What are the benefits of laser hair removal?

Significant and permanent reduction in hair growth

Unlike traditional hair removal methods such as shaving, waxing or depilatory creams, laser hair removal directly targets the hair follicles to permanently reduce hair growth. With regular treatments, the doctors at I Care Clinic can achieve a significant and permanent reduction in hair growth.

Suitable for different skin and hair types

Laser hair removal is effective for different skin types and hair types. I Care Clinic's high-tech laser technology makes it possible to safely treat both light and dark skin types, as well as different hair types, from fine to thick.

Quick treatment sessions

Laser hair removal sessions are generally quick and can treat large areas in a short time. Small areas such as the upper lip can be treated in minutes, while larger areas such as the legs or back take less than an hour.

Little inconvenience

Advanced cooling technologies used during laser hair removal at I Care Clinic help minimise discomfort by protecting the skin during the process. Most patients describe the sensation as a slight tingling sensation, making the treatment generally comfortable.

Save time and money in the long run

Investing in laser hair removal will save you time and money in the long run, as you will not have to shave, wax or use other temporary hair removal methods as often. After a series of treatments, you can enjoy smooth, hair-free skin without regular maintenance.

Safe and proven procedure

Laser hair removal is a safe and proven procedure, widely used by aesthetics and dermatology professionals worldwide. When performed by a qualified practitioner, it offers reliable and high-quality results with minimal risk of complications. After a full course of treatment, typically between 6 and 9 sessions, an average hair reduction of 70% to 90% can be achieved.

What are the benefits of laser hair removal?

How does treatment work?

Laser hair removal is suitable for anyone looking for a long-lasting solution to unwanted hair growth. Thanks to advanced cooling technologies used during treatment, discomfort is minimised and the treatment is virtually painless. Small areas like the upper lip can be treated in minutes, while larger areas like the legs or back take less than an hour. At I Care Clinic, your comfort and safety are always paramount.

01

Consultation

Before Dr Uliana Ramazanova gets started, we schedule a consultation of about 30 minutes. During this consultation, the doctor will get a good idea of your situation and medical history. We take the time to analyse your skin type and hair growth and create a tailor-made treatment plan.

02

Preparation

Before the treatment, we clean the area to be treated. Then the skin is shaved smooth and you are given protective glasses to protect your eyes from the laser.

03

During treatment

We fine-tune the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus to your skin and hair type. For treatment, we mark areas of 10 x 10 cm and treat each area with a precise, moving laser method. The laser pulse immediately targets the hair follicles, with the pigment in the hairs absorbing the light and reducing hair growth. Thanks to the integrated Dynamic Cooling Device, the skin is protected by a cryogenic spray, providing a more comfortable and virtually painless experience. Treatment duration varies: small areas such as armpits take 15 minutes, while larger areas, such as legs, take about an hour. On average, six to nine treatments are required, depending on your unique skin and hair growth.

04

After treatment

After treatment, the skin may be red or slightly swollen. This is normal and usually subsides within a few hours to a day. We apply a soothing cream to calm the skin.

What precautions should you take with permanent laser hair removal?

Avoid the sun

Avoid sun for 4-6 weeks before and after treatment or until your practitioner deems it safe. Epidermal melanocytes compete with the melanin in the hair.

Stop certain medications and skin products temporarily

Your practitioner may ask you to stop using topical medication or skin care products 3-5 days before the treatment.

Avoid bleaching, tweezing and waxing

You should avoid bleaching, tweezing or waxing the hair for 4-6 weeks before treatment. Hair containing melanin must be present in the follicle, as this is the target for the laser light.

Antiviral prophylaxis in herpes simplex

If you have a history of perioral or genital herpes simplex virus, your practitioner may recommend antiviral prophylaxis. Follow the instructions of your specific antiviral medication.

Consider a bleaching treatment

If you are tanned or have a darker skin type, bleaching treatment can be started 4 to 6 weeks earlier.

Avoid recently tanned skin

Recently tanned skin cannot be treated! If treated within 2 weeks of active (sun or tanning bed) tanning, hypopigmentation (white patches) may occur and remain visible for 2 to 3 months or longer.

Stop self-tanning products

The use of self-tanning products should be discontinued 1 week before treatment. Any remaining self-tanner should be removed before treatment.

No treatments during or immediately after pregnancy

We do not recommend treatments during and after pregnancy. This is because pregnancy hormones affect the outcome of treatment.

What are the benefits of a Candela GentleMax Pro Plus laser treatment?

01

Fast and efficient treatments

Unlike other lasers that use smaller spot sizes and lower repetition rates, the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus offers exceptional speed and efficiency. With its large spot sizes and high repetition rates, treatments can be performed faster, whether in small areas such as the upper lip or larger areas such as the back or legs. This means shorter sessions and more efficient treatment, meaning you see results faster.

02

Comfortable treatment with cooling technology

Many laser hair removal systems offer limited protection against discomfort, but I Care Clinic opts for advanced cooling technology in laser hair removal. The Candela GentleMax Pro Plus features an integrated Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) that sprays a cryogen to protect the skin and minimise discomfort, providing a more comfortable experience than traditional laser treatments.

03

Long-lasting and safe hair growth reduction

Whereas some devices do not target hair follicles as precisely or are less suitable for different skin and hair types, the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus offers a precise and effective approach. By directly targeting the hair follicles, the laser offers a lasting reduction in hair growth. Backed by extensive clinical studies, it is proven safe and effective for hair removal, with minimal recovery time.

04

Treatment by experienced specialists

The difference is not only in the device, but also in the expertise. I Care Clinic's highly experienced doctors are trained in the use of the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus, guaranteeing optimal results tailored to your skin type and specific hair removal needs.

FAQ

What is the price of a laser treatment?

arrow

It depends on the area being treated and the number of sessions. The price for a treatment area ranges between €40 and €375 per session.
Check our prices here (opens in a new tab).

How does a laser treatment with the Gentle Max Pro Plus or GentleMax laser work?

arrow

First, one of our specialists examines the area you want to have treated. The skin is checked for damage, pigmentation, and excessively long hairs. Areas of approximately 10 cm x 10 cm are then marked for laser treatment. Each area is lasered in a short time using a moving method. After the treatment, the skin is treated with a soothing cream.

Does the treatment hurt?

arrow

Many people associate the word "laser" with pain. Some warmth, tingling, or prickling sensations may be experienced, and we sometimes test how far we can go, but we never go beyond that. We always discuss with you what is feasible. Treatments are always tailored to the individual. Candela's Laser Hair Removal treatments use a patented Dynamic Cooling Device, which prepares the skin for the treatment by spraying the top layer with a cooling burst of cryogen in adjustable durations—milliseconds before the laser pulse.

How long does a treatment take?

arrow

The duration of the treatment depends on the area being treated. Our shortest treatments, such as both underarms or sideburns, take 15 minutes. A larger body area, like laser treatment of the entire legs, takes about an hour.

Is the treatment suitable for all hair types/colors?

arrow

Yes, but there are exceptions. I Care Clinic uses the Gentle Max Pro Plus, which can treat most hair types and colors. During the initial consultation, we assess whether we can achieve a good result for you.

Is laser hair removal more effective than IPL?

arrow

IPL hair removal and laser hair removal are both effective methods for removing unwanted hair. However, there is a significant difference between these two treatments. Scientific research has shown that laser hair removal is much more effective than IPL hair removal. Therefore, it is recommended to opt for a laser treatment with the Gentle Max Pro Plus at I Care Clinic. This laser device combines two different laser wavelengths: the Alexandrite laser (755 nm) and the Nd laser (1064 nm).

Can I continue removing hair while undergoing a laser treatment?

arrow

When undergoing treatment with us, you should not tweeze, wax, or use hair removal cream on the areas being treated. This negatively affects the results of the laser treatment. Only shaving is allowed. You should also avoid tweezing, waxing, or using hair removal cream for 3 weeks prior to the first treatment.

Mag ik sporten/zweten na de laserbehandeling?

arrow

You can continue exercising on the day of the laser treatment. However, you should be cautious with hot showers. Warm baths and saunas are only allowed 24 hours after the laser treatment.

What is the difference between a small bikini line and a large bikini line?

arrow

The small bikini line covers only the pubic area, while the large zone includes the entire pubic region.

Will I lose my hair permanently after a laser treatment?

arrow

Unfortunately, a 100% reduction is not realistic due to dormant hair follicles that can be activated. Unfortunately, we have no control over this. The effect depends on hair type and the body's hormone balance. In many cases, hair loss can be between 80% and 95%. The expected result in combination with hair type/skin type:

  • For black to dark pigmented hair, a reduction of 80% - 95% is achievable.
  • For dark blond hair, the percentage of hair reduction will be lower, around 70%.
  • For red or blond hair, the reduction is about 40%.
  • Gray (white-gray) hair has a success rate of 0%.

Additionally, the growth phase is the only phase in which hair can be effectively treated with the laser. Therefore, multiple treatments are always necessary.

How do I prepare for a laser treatment?

arrow

You should not tweeze, wax, or use hair removal cream 3 weeks before the first treatment. This is also not allowed between treatments. The area to be treated must be shaved 24 hours in advance to avoid extra irritation. On the day of the treatment, do not use skincare or tanning products such as body cream, foundation, or deodorant on the treated area (both before and after the treatment). Lastly, avoid exposing the treated area to the sun or tanning beds 4 weeks before and 4 weeks after the treatment. Stop using self-tanner 3 weeks before the treatment, as this can interfere with the laser's effectiveness.

Avoid using harsh skincare products: refrain from using scrubs, acids, and retinoids on the area a few days before the laser procedure. Avoid antibiotics and other photosensitizing medications, as they can increase your skin’s sensitivity to light, raising the risk of side effects. Consult your doctor if you are taking any medications.

I have a lot of skin irritations, can you still perform laser treatments?

arrow

We can also perform laser treatments on shaving irritations. However, if there is a lot of irritation, you may be more sensitive to the laser treatment. We do not laser over open wounds, as they need to be protected.

Is a laser treatment safe?

arrow

Yes, a laser treatment is absolutely safe. Unlike other devices, the Gentle Max Pro Plus ICE laser uses a moving method that ensures the skin is safely and gently heated to a temperature that destroys the hair follicle. Due to the precision of the laser, it is impossible for sweat or lymph glands in the skin to be damaged.

Can I undergo a laser treatment during my pregnancy?

arrow

No, I CARE CLINIC does not recommend treatments during and after pregnancy. This is because pregnancy hormones can affect the outcome of the treatment.

Can I schedule a treatment at the same time as my first consultation?

arrow

Yes, this is possible in most cases. Please contact us to discuss the options.

When should I not undergo laser treatment?

arrow

Laser treatment is not recommended in the following situations:

  • Pregnancy
  • Breastfeeding
  • Epilepsy
  • Fever or infection
  • Use of medications that make the skin sensitive to light
  • Use of anti-inflammatory medications
  • Pacemaker
  • Piercings, tattoos, or implants in the area to be treated

If you have any questions regarding your specific situation, please feel free to contact us.

If I become pregnant after my laser treatment, will all my hair grow back?

arrow

It is possible that some dormant hair follicles become active due to pregnancy. This varies from person to person and from pregnancy to pregnancy. As a result, some hair may grow back, but this is not a reason to delay laser treatment.

Does I Care Clinic offer a guarantee?

arrow

No, this is not possible because each person is unique. The laser works differently for everyone, so we cannot provide any guarantees.

I have had laser treatments elsewhere that didn’t work well enough, why would it work this time?

arrow

Of course, we don't know how your previous treatment was carried out. It could be that the wavelength of our lasers and our treatment method make the difference. Our experience shows that we achieve good results with clients who have switched to us, for example, from IPL treatments.

Can lasers be used on tanned skin?

arrow

Yes, a tanned skin can be treated with the Gentle Max Pro Plus. This is because the laser effectively targets the blood vessels in the hair follicle, not just the pigment. You can be treated at I Care Clinic at any time of the year. Please note: It is recommended to avoid sunbathing, tanning beds, or self-tanning products for 3 weeks before and 1 week after the treatment.

Can I cancel an appointment?

arrow

If you are unable to attend, you can cancel your appointment by email or phone at least 48 hours before the treatment. If you fail to do so, we will be obliged to charge 40% of the payable amount.

From what age can I be treated?

arrow

We can treat individuals aged 18 and older. Before the age of 18, the body is still influenced by hormonal changes that can affect the laser results.

How many laser treatments are needed?

arrow

On average, 6 to 9 treatments are needed. There is no standard number of treatments, as every person, skin type, and hair growth is different. We ensure that your hair removal process is optimized.

Can you be in the sun during a laser treatment?

arrow

During a course of laser hair removal, it is generally recommended to minimize sun exposure to protect your skin and ensure the effectiveness of the treatments. Here are some key points to consider:

  • As mentioned earlier, avoid sun exposure for at least 2-4 weeks before each laser treatment. Tanned skin can increase the risk of side effects such as burns and hyperpigmentation.
  • After each laser session, your skin may be more sensitive. It is advised to avoid direct sun exposure for at least 1-2 weeks after the treatment. If you need to go outside, use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF (30 or higher), wear protective clothing, and seek shade whenever possible.
  • Consistently use sunscreen and take protective measures when outdoors during your laser treatments.

How much time is there between treatments?

arrow

Not all unwanted hair can be destroyed in one go. The hair needs to be in the growth cycle to be permanently removed. Since not all hairs are in the growth phase at the same time, multiple treatments must be performed to permanently reduce unwanted hair growth. The interval between treatments is 4 to 6 weeks for the face and 8 to 10 weeks for the body.

Is a laser treatment suitable for all skin types?

arrow

Yes, I Care Clinic uses the Gentle Max Pro Plus lasers and can treat all skin types. It doesn't matter whether you have a light or dark skin tone, as the laser effectively targets the blood vessels of the hair follicle rather than just the pigment.

Can I pay with a debit card?

arrow

It is possible to pay with a debit card at I Care Clinic. Cash payments are also welcome.

Can I apply makeup immediately after a laser treatment?

arrow

Laser treatments can make your skin more sensitive, red, and slightly swollen. Applying makeup immediately can irritate the treated area and potentially cause side effects. It is important to allow your skin to heal and breathe after a laser treatment. Makeup can clog pores and introduce bacteria, which can hinder the healing process and increase the risk of infection.

Are laser treatments covered by health insurance?

arrow

No

Are there any side effects or risks?

arrow

As with any laser treatment, some side effects may occur, but these are generally mild and temporary. After treatment, the skin may show redness or be slightly swollen, which usually subsides within a few hours to a day. Thanks to the Dynamic Cooling Device of the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus, the risk of discomfort during treatment is minimised, and the skin is protected from overheating.

In rare cases, slight pigment changes may occur, especially in people with tanned or darker skin. Therefore, it is important to follow the preparation and aftercare instructions carefully. I Care Clinic only works with experienced specialists, which further reduces the risk of complications and ensures safe and effective treatment.

Testimonials

With my darker skin, permanent hair removal was always a challenge. Most lasers simply aren’t suitable for my skin tone, but at I Care Clinic, I discovered that their equipment is specially designed for all skin types. I decided to give it a try and immediately saw a noticeable difference! The treatment really works, and I’m incredibly happy with the results. A fantastic experience!

Leila M.

With my fair skin and blonde hair, I thought laser hair removal would never work, as previous treatments at a beauty salon had no effect. Luckily, at I Care Clinic, it was a completely different story! They assured me that their technology is effective even on fair skin with blonde hair, and that proved to be absolutely true! After eight treatments, I’m finally free of those pesky hairs. What a difference!

Sarah M.

Since my laser treatments at I Care Clinic, I’m bikini-ready all year round! It’s such a relief not having to think about unwanted hair or last-minute hair removal. I’m always ready for a spontaneous beach day, carefree and comfortable!
