FAQ

The region to be treated is delineated with a pencil to make the treatment as precise as possible. After that, a hydrogel is applied, which has the function of additional cooling, and then the laser applicator is applied directly to the skin. After the treatment, the skin is thoroughly cleaned and aloe vera gel is applied to calm the skin.

Hairs from any region of the body must not be plucked from the roots 3-4 weeks before the appointment, while the rule applies to the face 2-3 weeks before the appointment.
The area to be treated must be shaved at least a few hours before arriving at the appointment so that there is no unnecessary reaction of the skin in terms of irritation or redness. For morning appointments, it is ideal to shave the night before, while for afternoon or evening appointments, it is recommended to shave in the morning on the day of arrival, or during the day. Preparations such as deodorants, lotions, oils, creams, etc. should be avoided after shaving preparatory to the treatment so that the laser energy can penetrate the hair follicles without hindrance.
The sun, sauna and solarium must be avoided for 48 hours before and after the treatment.

Ideal candidates are people with darker hair.

People who have light or gray hair are not ideal candidates since such hairs do not contain a sufficient amount of melanin, which is very necessary to attract laser energy. However, experience has shown that in a certain number of clients, even gray hairs have weakened, but this is not what is guaranteed, so each person should decide for himself whether he wants to try laser epilation on such a region. Since consultations and trial treatment are free at Epicenter Lumiere, there is nothing to lose! :)

Tattoos contain color that would not only fade in contact with laser energy, but could also damage the skin, so it must be covered with a white plaster and carefully avoided.

For smaller moles that are flush with the skin, there is no danger when they are in contact with the laser. In the case of larger ones, there is a need to cover them with a white protective pencil, and if they protrude more strongly above the surface of the skin, they are covered with micropore strips and completely bypassed. Our experienced and certified staff will make a decision on the above during a detailed examination of your skin.

The shortest treatments, such as regions of the nose, chin, armpits, etc., can last 5 to 10 minutes, while larger regions, such as the entire legs, last about 40 minutes. The whole body can be treated in one visit, and the length of such treatment lasts approximately 1.30 to 2 hours.

The easiest way to book a treatment is by calling, but if it's easier for you, you can send us an inquiry via WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook or by email.

Elysion PRO jedan je od najnovijih lasera na tržištu te je u njega uloženo mnogo truda u razvoj sustava hlađenja kako bi tretmani bili potpuno bezbolni. Ono što se na momente može osjetiti je toplina ili blago peckanje ali uglavnom su tretmani potpuno ugodni za podnijeti.

Among the female population, the most popular regions are the armpits, legs, bikini line, and upper arms, while among the male population, it is the back, chest, abdomen, and armpits.

Of course, free consultations are always available, as well as a short trial treatment, which we usually do on part of the leg, but if you wish, it can also be part of another region.

After the treatment, the hairs will continue to grow, but more slowly than usual. Within a week or two, some of the hair will begin to fall out on its own, followed by a period in which it will simply not grow. This phase lasts approximately one to two weeks on the face, and two to three weeks on the body. After that, they slowly begin to return, but with each treatment they become thinner, softer, brighter and less frequent.

Broj potrebnih tretmana nikad se ne može precizirati sa 100% sigurnošću, ali u velikom broju slučajeva pokazalo se da je za lice potrebno 10ak tretmana, a za tijelo oko 8 tretmana. To može varirati uzevši u obzir hormonalni balans osobe, stres, genetiku, pridržavanje preporučenog intervala dolazaka na tretmane i sl. tako da je nekima dovoljno i 6 tretmana, a nekome će pak biti potrebno 12 tretmana.

Due to the different cycle of hair growth, it is usually recommended to come for treatments on the face every month, and for the body every two months.

The hair growth cycle is divided into three phases, of which only the first, the anagen growth phase, is suitable for their destruction, since the root of the hair contains the highest concentration of melanin. The growth cycle changes faster on the face than on the body, and for this reason a different interval of visits is recommended. Since each person is an individual for himself, and the need for a less frequent or more frequent interval of visits is shown, our experienced staff can also suggest different intervals between treatments, all for the purpose of a better result.

Of course, the only thing to be careful about is that the regions treated with the laser are not exposed to direct sunlight for 48 hours before and after the treatment. Tanned skin will not be a problem for our diode laser because it is suitable for all skin types.

Although no research has ever been conducted on the effects of lasers on pregnant women, laser treatments are not recommended at any stage of pregnancy due to precautionary measures.

Both laser and IPL are optical energy in nature that use intense light to create heat as a method of hair destruction, but there are several inherent differences between them. While with IPL, the beam of light that goes under the skin is dispersed in several directions, which results in a weaker effect, the beam of laser beams is directed coherently and synchronously and better targets and reaches the hair follicles. For the above reason, IPL rays that do not reach deep enough under the skin cause a much stronger burning sensation and there is a greater risk of damaging the surrounding tissue. This is not the case with the laser either, because although it has much stronger power, due to the directed beam of light, it does not cause burning, but focuses exclusively on the hair follicles. What is extremely important to everyone is the safety of performing the treatment even during the summer months when the skin is tanned, and this can only be achieved with a laser.

No way, more and more men are opting for laser hair removal, and the most common areas they choose are the back, chest, stomach, armpits and neck.

The accepted minimum age to start laser hair removal can be as young as 14, although most experts recommend waiting until after puberty. If it is a female person, it is important that the menstrual cycle has started and that she is not hormonally unstable, that is, that she does not have a medical condition such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
For persons under the age of 18, the presence of one of the parents/legal guardians, who also gives written consent, is required at the first arrival.
Because hormones change so rapidly during puberty that hair growth is rampant, more treatments than usual are likely to be needed. Once the hormones are regulated (usually between the ages of 17 and 19), treatments are more effective and last longer.

It is extremely important to follow the instructions given after laser epilation, which include avoiding hot water, saunas, solariums and the sun for the next 48 hours. Also, if the armpit area was treated, it is necessary to avoid applying deodorant until the end of the same day.
