Frequently Asked Questions – DL'ASER Hair Removal

​

1. What is laser hair removal?

 

Laser hair removal is a treatment that uses focused light energy to target and destroy hair follicles, reducing and preventing future hair growth. It’s safe, effective, and provides longer-lasting results compared to shaving or waxing.

 

2. Is laser hair removal safe for all skin types?

​

Yes, with modern technology, laser hair removal can be performed on most skin tones and hair types. At UMMY WAX, we use machines that are safe for sensitive skin and suitable for Muslim women.

 

3. Is the treatment painful?

 

Most clients describe the feeling as a mild snapping sensation, similar to a rubber band on the skin. We use cooling technology to make the process as comfortable as possible.

 

4. How many sessions will I need?

 

Hair grows in cycles, so multiple sessions are needed for best results. On average, 6–8 sessions are recommended, with maintenance sessions if necessary.

 

5. How should I prepare before my session?

​

• Shave the treatment area 24 hours before your appointment.

• Avoid waxing, tweezing, or epilating for at least 4 weeks prior.

• Avoid sun exposure or tanning to reduce the risk of irritation.

 

6. Can I do laser hair removal during menstruation?

 

Yes, it’s possible, but for hygiene and comfort, bikini/brazilian treatments are best done after your period.

 

7. Can pregnant or breastfeeding women do laser hair removal?

 

It is generally not recommended during pregnancy. For breastfeeding mothers, treatments can be done but may be delayed for intimate areas depending on comfort level.

 

8. Are the results permanent?

 

Laser hair removal offers long-term reduction. Most clients experience 80–90% permanent hair reduction after completing the recommended sessions. Some fine regrowth may occur and can be maintained with touch-ups.

 

9. Are there any side effects?

 

Mild redness or slight swelling may occur but usually fades within a few hours. Serious side effects are rare when performed by trained professionals.

 

10. What areas can be treated?

 

Almost any area with unwanted hair can be treated, including:

• Face (upper lip, chin, sideburns)

• Arms & underarms

• Legs & thighs

• Bikini & Brazilian area

• Back & chest

 

11. How long does each session take?

 

The duration depends on the area. Small areas like the upper lip take 5–10 minutes, while larger areas like legs can take up to 45 minutes.
