PULSED LIGHT HAIR REMOVAL IN BRUSSELS AT SAMA WELLNESS: HOW IT WORKS

PULSED LIGHT HAIR REMOVAL, ALSO KNOWN AS FLASH LAMP, AT SAMA WELLNESS

Say goodbye to the ordeal of that barbaric hair removal technique that rips out your hair with a sharp, painful pull. From now on, hair removal is painless and long-lasting. Pulsed light hair removal is well on its way to replacing all other forms of hair removal. Here is an explanation and a guide to pulsed light hair removal, also known as flash lamp…

HOW DOES PERMANENT HAIR REMOVAL WORK AT SAMA WELLNESS BRUSSELS?

Hair removal works by emitting light, which is absorbed  by a target (the hair). The light, which reaches 70 °C, destroys -only- the hair, eventually leading to almost no regrowth. Inside the hair, it is the pigment (melanin) that captures the light and heats up. The technical specificity of pulsed light, compared to laser, lies in its broader emission spectrum (several wavelengths instead of just one with a laser).

WHAT HAPPENS DURING A PERMANENT HAIR REMOVAL SESSION AT SAMA WELLNESS BRUSSELS? DOES IT HURT?

Since it is not considered a medical procedure, flash lamp (pulsed light) hair removal is generally performed in beauty centres. Before any session, make sure that:

You have let the hair in the area grow for about 2 to 3 weeks before the session. The Sama therapist will then shave the hair before flashing (the thicker and darker the hair, the better it is detected by the light)

You anticipate the sensation of heat and tingling by applying an anaesthetic cream (prescribed by your doctor) to more sensitive areas such as the bikini line or face.

Your moles have been protected and you wear protective anti-radiation glasses (provided by the centre).

Once you are lying down in a treatment room, the session, during which the professional applies the flash light to the areas being treated, is very quick (between 5 and 45 minutes depending on the size of the area ) and VERY slightly painful (a light sensation of heat and tingling ).

At Sama Wellness Brussels, we use the very latest generation of pulsed light in Brussels: very fast and almost painless!

HOW MANY PULSED LIGHT SESSIONS ARE NEEDED?

The number of sessions varies depending on the type of hair and the area being treated. The darker the hair, the faster it will be destroyed. In general, allow 4-5 sessions for areas such as the underarms and bikini line, and 6-8 for the face, for example. Avoid having a session 2 to 3 weeks before sun exposure  and wait at least 1 month after returning from the sun.

Sessions are spaced about 1 month apart.

IS PULSED LIGHT EFFECTIVE?

Be warned! As a rule, once you try pulsed light at Sama Wellness, you'll never go back! Results of permanent hair removal at Sama Wellness are visible from the very first session! Hair growth generally decreases by 20% with each session.

HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?

Not permanent, but very long-lasting. In fact, almost permanent on the underarms and bikini line, and very long-lasting on other areas.

It should be remembered, however, that technologies are evolving, and although permanent hair removal centres are everywhere, their effectiveness varies depending on the settings and the quality of the machine. At Sama Wellness Brussels, our latest-generation machine is exclusive to the Brussels market!  

PULSED LIGHT HAIR REMOVAL: WHO CAN AND WHO CANNOT? EXCLUSIVE SAMA WELLNESS BRUSSELS

Anyone with skin phototypes I to V (see image)

Unfortunately, black skin cannot benefit from this technology due to the high amount of melanin in the skin. However, while most other permanent hair removal centres in Brussels, lacking latest-generation equipment, also cannot use pulsed light on mixed-race skin, at Sama Wellness WE CAN!!!

CONTRAINDICATIONS

In addition to black skin, flash lamp permanent hair removal is strictly contraindicated for pregnant women, children, people with diabetes, a blood disorder or cancer, and people taking anticoagulants, antibiotics or other photosensitising medications.

TRUE OR FALSE: PULSED LIGHT HAIR REMOVAL

Pulsed light hair removal sessions are cheaper than laser.

TRUE: Performed in beauty centres with shorter and therefore more cost-effective sessions, pulsed light hair removal is priced quite a bit lower than laser.

Light-based hair removal is effective on white hair.

FALSE: The absence of melanin prevents heat transfer, making this technique ineffective on white hair.

Pulsed light hair removal is better suited to blond hair and fine down than laser.

TRUE: A laser can only deliver a single wavelength, unlike pulsed light, which emits a wide range of wavelengths and increases the chances of adapting to as many hair colours.

Permanent pulsed light hair removal? At Sama Wellness Brussels, of course!
