Laser Hair Removal in Riyadh

What is Laser Hair Removal?

The laser targets melanin in the hair follicle, converting light energy into heat that weakens the follicle. Because hair grows in cycles, each area needs several spaced sessions to catch as many follicles as possible in their active phase.

Who is it suitable for?

• Unwanted hair density on the face or body
• Folliculitis or ingrown hairs caused by shaving
• Women with hirsutism, after assessing the hormonal cause
• Men wanting to reduce density on the back or neck

How the session works, step by step

1. Identifying skin type on the Fitzpatrick scale and selecting settings
2. A small test patch where appropriate
3. Shaving the area before the session and cooling the skin
4. Passing the laser with even coverage
5. Soothing the skin and giving aftercare instructions

How to prepare

• Shave the area beforehand; do not pluck or wax
• Avoid sun and tanning for two weeks before
• No perfume or deodorant on the area on the day
• Tell the doctor about any medication that increases light sensitivity

After the session — what to expect

• Mild redness around the follicles for a few hours is expected
• Avoid hot water, sauna and strenuous exercise for a day
• Sunscreen on exposed areas
• Never pluck or wax between sessions; shaving only

Cost and instalments

The cost of laser hair removal varies with your case, the number of sessions and the plan your doctor sets, so an exact price cannot be given before a consultation. We explain the full cost after examination and before starting, and instalments are available through Tamara, Tabby and Emkan.
