Laser hair removal in Kyiv
Laser hair removal at JULI Beauty Salon means removing unwanted hair with a Fotona Nd:YAG 1064 nm laser. The laser heats the hair follicle and destroys it, while the surrounding skin stays intact. After a course, there is much less hair in the area, and what does grow back is finer and lighter.
The 1064 nm wavelength penetrates deeper than other lasers and is absorbed less by skin pigment, so the procedure also suits darker or tanned skin.

How Nd:YAG laser hair removal works
The laser energy is absorbed by the melanin in the hair and heats the follicle to a temperature at which it can no longer grow new hair.
- Deep action – the Nd:YAG laser reaches deep-set follicles, including in the bikini area and underarms.
- Safe for darker skin – skin pigment absorbs less energy than with other lasers, so the risk of burns and marks is lower.
- Cooling – the skin is cooled during the procedure, so you feel warmth and slight tingling.
- Face and body – from the upper lip and ears to the back and full legs.
The laser only acts on hair in the active growth phase. That’s why one session isn’t enough: a course is needed to “catch” every follicle.
Who laser hair removal is for
- Women and men who want to stop shaving and waxing
- Those with ingrown hairs and irritation after shaving
- Darker and tanned skin, at the specialist’s discretion
- Facial hair removal, including vellus hair
When the laser won’t help
The laser works poorly on very light, grey and red hair: it has little of the pigment the energy acts on.
If unwanted hair appears suddenly or in unusual areas, it’s worth having your hormones checked by a doctor first.

How laser hair removal is done
- 1. Consultation
The specialist assesses your skin and hair type, checks for contraindications and selects the laser settings.
- 2. Preparation
Shave the area 1–2 days before the procedure. Don’t use wax or an epilator for 3–4 weeks beforehand.
- 3. Laser treatment
From 5 min for the upper lip to an hour for full legs. You feel warmth and tingling.
- 4. After the procedure
Redness for a few hours is possible. For 2 weeks – SPF, no tanning, saunas or scrubs.
How many laser hair removal sessions you need
A course is usually 6–8 sessions. On the face they are spaced 4–6 weeks apart, on the body 6–8 weeks, so new hair has time to enter the growth phase. Hair becomes noticeably sparser after just 2–3 sessions.
The specialist determines the exact number: it depends on the area, hair density and hormonal balance.

Frequently asked questions about laser hair removal
Is laser hair removal painful?
You feel warmth and tingling, similar to the snap of a rubber band. The skin is cooled, so most clients have the procedure without anaesthesia. The most sensitive areas are the deep bikini and the upper lip.
Can I have laser hair removal in summer?
Yes. The Nd:YAG laser suits tanned skin, but after the procedure you need to avoid the sun for 2 weeks and use SPF.
Does the laser remove vellus hair?
The laser removes dark vellus hair on the face – at the doctor’s discretion after an examination. Light, fine vellus hair barely responds to the laser.
Can I shave between sessions?
Yes, you can shave. Don’t pull hair out with wax, tweezers or an epilator: the laser needs a follicle with a hair in it.
Who should not have laser hair removal?
Pregnancy and breastfeeding, cancer, inflammation, herpes or damaged skin in the treatment area, and taking photosensitising medications. The specialist makes the final decision.
