AKJ Skin & Laser Centre is helmed by Dr. Selvam and Dr. Nirmala, who are pioneers in bringing high-quality laser therapy to South India. Our doctors have made immense contributions to dermatology for almost twenty years and are experts in handling different types of laser technology.
Our clinic at Vannarpettai, Trivandrum Road, in Tirunelveli, is equipped with a high-end Gentleyag laser machine for hair removal on the legs, hands, face, armpits, bikini area, and entire body. Our experts also do laser hair removal for neonatal and babies with strict safety precautions.
Furthermore, unlike waxing or tweezing, laser treatments destroy the hair follicles from the root, leaving no ingrown hair.
AKJ Skin & Laser Centre at Tirunelveli offers safe and affordable laser hair removal options for both men and women. Our expert dermatologists do the procedure under hygienic conditions.
To begin the procedure, the area to be treated is adequately cleaned, and then a topical anaesthetic gel is applied. Next, an optimal wavelength and pulse duration of a laser beam of high-intensity light is shone on the area. This high-intensity laser light is absorbed by the hair follicle, which is then destroyed when the light energy from the laser beam is converted into heat energy.
One of the biggest advantages of laser hair removal is the possibility of removing hair even from difficult-to-reach and tough-skinned areas, which is quite impossible during waxing or plucking.
Laser machines directly target the hair follicles which absorb the high intensity light. The hair follicle is destroyed when this light energy converts to heat energy, thus preventing the hair from growing back.
Before the treatment, our experts carefully analyse the skin to determine the right intensity of the laser beam and the number of sessions you will require for this procedure. Generally, each session lasts approximately 30-40 minutes, although the time taken depends on the size of the targeted area.
Laser hair reduction requires at least three to eight sessions spaced four to six weeks apart to give time for the treatment to work on the hair follicles and for the hair to shed. The duration and results differ as per the treated area's location, density, and hair thickness. Therefore, some patients may require a touchup session after completing the treatment.
Laser hair removal is one of the safest and least invasive cosmetic procedures that deliver desired results. It is trusted by millions of doctors and patients worldwide.
At AKJ Skin & Laser Centre in Tirunelveli, we use gentle YAG laser [ Syneron and Candela ], long pulsed Nd YAG laser technology, Light sheer ET [Lumenis U.S.A ], Diode laser technology and Cutera [ cool slide U.S.A ] – Long pulsed Nd YAG laser technology. Ours is the first clinic in Chennai to introduce advanced and imported laser treatments for body care.
The duration for laser hair removal depends on the area of the body where you want the hair removed. This duration also determines the cost of the treatment.
