Experience the Freedom of Unwanted Hair with Permanent Laser Hair Removal Technology. Smooth, Hair-Free Skin That Lasts.
What is Laser Hair Removal Treatment?
Laser hair removal is an aesthetic procedure to reduce or eliminate unwanted body hair. In an active lifestyle, it is barely possible for individuals to find the time to practice a regular self-care regime. Getting rid of unwanted hair on the chest, back, arms, and legs can be bothersome. With Laser Hair Removal treatment, getting hair-free skin is no longer a painful task.
Laser Hair Reduction treatment at Regions Clinic is an advanced and effective method of reducing unwanted body hair. This technology works on the hair follicles by targeting pigments in the body’s hair. During this procedure, the laser’s primary target is the melanin pigment in the hair follicles. Melanin is responsible for giving hair its color. A laser used for hair reduction doesn’t impact the pigment of the skin; it only gets absorbed by the hair melanin. The results transform longer, darker, and thicker hair into fine, thin, and light hair. We use advanced laser treatment for hair reduction, which is safe for the Malaysian skin type.
Laser Hair Removal Treatment: Before & After Precautions
Here are some before and after tips for getting a laser hair Reduction treatment.
Before laser hair removal treatment

- Avoid Sun Exposure For 7 Days
- Keep your skin moisturized by applying of correct skin moisturizer

- Avoid the application of cosmetics products or make-up in the treated area
- Apply sunscreen on exposed skin every 3 hours
- Apply moisturizer soothing lotion 3-4 times for 3-4 days post the session
What is the Process of Laser Hair Reduction Treatment?
The science behind this effective Laser Hair Removal treatment, also known as Laser Hair Reduction, lies in the principle of Photothermolysis. During the procedure, the laser of a specific wavelength emits light, and that light is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) present in the hair follicles.
One of the critical challenges in laser hair reduction is distinguishing between the melanin in the hair and the melanin in the skin. However, advancements in laser technology and the use of different lasers have made the procedure safer and more effective for people with a broader range of skin tones. As the light energy is absorbed by the hair melanin, it converts into heat at the hair root level, thereby damaging the hair follicle. This process leaves the surrounding skin and tissues unharmed due to selective targeting, ensuring that Laser Hair Reduction Treatment is entirely safe for the skin.
For hair roots to get deactivated, laser light should reach the root, which can happen only when hair is connected to the root as it is in the Anagen or active hair growth stage. Hair growth occurs in cycles, and not all hairs are in the active growth phase (anagen) at the same time. Therefore, multiple treatment sessions are required to target hair follicles effectively during their growth phase.
This treatment works wonders for every hair, especially for dark hair. This is because melanin absorbs laser light more effectively. The main reason for the effectiveness of the Laser Hair Reduction Treatment is that it targets hair follicle stem cells, which are responsible for hair growth. By destroying these stem cells, the hair follicles cannot produce new hair. With multiple treatment sessions, the hair follicles in the treated area progressively weaken, reducing hair growth.
How Many Sessions of Laser Hair Reduction Treatment Is Needed?
To get the desired results, the number of sessions recommended by our experts is 4-6, which may vary from person to person depending on various factors like the type of hair, skin, medical history, and sensitivity of the targeted area. While the initial sessions are scheduled a month apart, the later session may grow further apart. Sessions are dependent on the complete hair growth which keeps on reducing every preceding session. Once the minimum recommended sessions are completed, the expert may require you to come in for 1-2 maintenance sessions over 1-2 years.
Different Types of Laser Hair Removal in Malaysia
Alexandrite Laser: This laser is considered the gold standard for hair removal, particularly for lighter skin tones (Fitzpatrick skin types I-III). It has a wavelength of 755 nm, which is well-absorbed by melanin in hair follicles. It offers fast treatment times and can cover larger areas to remove hair quickly.
Diode Laser: This laser is suitable for a wider range of skin tones (Fitzpatrick skin types I-IV) compared to Alexandrite. It has a slightly longer wavelength (810 nm) than Alexandrite, allowing deeper penetration for coarser hair. It may be less effective on very fine or light-colored hair.
Nd:YAG Laser: This laser is safe and effective for darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick skin types IV-VI). It has the longest wavelength (1064 nm) among hair removal lasers, minimizing the risk of skin damage in darker individuals. It may require more sessions than other lasers for optimal results.
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light): Technically not a laser, but a broad-spectrum light source. Suitable for lighter skin tones and hair colors. Less effective than lasers for permanent hair reduction. Often used for at-home hair removal devices.
Ruby Laser: One of the first lasers used for hair removal. Best suited for lighter skin tones and fine hair. Slower treatment times compared to newer lasers. Less commonly used today due to the availability of more advanced lasers.
