Dewy Skin Vellus Hair Removal: What Makes It Special

1. Beyond simple vellus hair removal, this treatment helps improve skin appearance.

Vellus hair is fine and not easily noticeable,

but it can cause makeup to look patchy or make your skin texture appear dull.

The vellus hair removal we offer

goes beyond simply removing hair; it helps your makeup apply more smoothly and encourages a naturally radiant skin condition.

2. Immediate changes in hair can be observed during laser treatment.

When laser energy is precisely delivered to vellus hair,

a thermal reaction may cause the hair to shrink or disappear, and you may feel noticeably smoother skin immediately after the treatment.

Consequently, you may experience a noticeable improvement in makeup application even after just one session.

With consistent treatment over about 5 sessions, you may observe changes such as slower hair growth or a reduction in hair density.

This can lead to skin that holds makeup better and stays clean longer.

3. We reduce the possibility of hyperpigmentation and folliculitis and proceed with safety settings optimized for facial treatment.

We use the Apogee Elite Plus device.

It offers a 755nm Alexandrite wavelength and customizable power output settings for the face.

With adjustable cooling, pulse speed, and depth, it allows for hair removal treatments that minimize skin burden.

Therefore, the settings are configured to allow even those with sensitive skin to consider the treatment with less apprehension.

5. Experience immediate smoothness after treatment, and expect changes in skin texture and light reflection with repeated sessions.

Even after just one session, you may experience improvements in makeup application and skin texture.

With consistent treatment for 5 sessions or more, the angle of light reflection can be improved,

allowing you to experience a subtle radiance on your skin.

Afterward, receiving maintenance treatments every 2-3 months

can help you consistently maintain your refined skin condition.

Why Laser Treatment is Needed for Vellus Hair Removal

Vellus hair is very fine and has low melanin content, making it difficult to remove cleanly with conventional methods like shaving or waxing. These methods only act on the skin's surface and, if repeated, carry a risk of causing issues such as skin irritation or folliculitis.

In contrast, laser hair removal uses specific wavelengths of light to deliver thermal energy to the melanin in the hair follicle, which can inhibit hair growth. Especially for delicate areas like the face, it is advisable to use a short-wavelength laser, such as an Alexandrite laser, to minimize skin damage for vellus hair removal.

The Apogee Elite Plus device utilizes a 755nm Alexandrite wavelength, which is well-absorbed by melanin, to assist with the removal of light-colored and fine vellus hair.

Simultaneously, it is designed with a powerful cooling system to reduce skin irritation and precisely deliver energy to the target area, ensuring a comfortable treatment experience.

Treatment Procedure

• Anesthetic Cream Application (Optional): Anesthetic cream may be applied to reduce discomfort, depending on individual skin condition and pain sensitivity.
• Laser Irradiation: The laser is quickly applied to a wide area with appropriate intensity, proceeding with the vellus hair removal process while minimizing unnecessary heat buildup on the skin.
• Cooling and Soothing Care: During the treatment, we continuously cool and soothe the skin, focusing on reducing potential irritation.​

Treatment Cycle Guidance

Hair undergoes different growth cycles: anagen (growth), catagen (transitional), and telogen (resting) phases. Laser hair removal is most effective when performed during the anagen phase, when hair is actively growing.

Considering this, we generally recommend at least 5 treatment sessions, spaced 3-4 weeks apart. Afterward, maintenance treatments approximately once every 3 months can help sustain the hair removal effects.
