What is Laser Hair Removal, and How Does it Work?
Here at Youth Lab we use leading technology for laser hair removal. The world’s first workstation that integrates three popular light wavelengths for permanent hair reduction. This delivers consistent results for all skin types and is safe and effective for lighter and darker skin.
Hair removal works by targeting the melanin in your hair shaft, disrupting your hair growth cycle.
Over time, repeated treatments can lead to permanent hair reduction in the areas we treat. The treatment carefully and selectively damages your hair follicles inhibiting future hair growth for long-lasting results.
Our hair removal experts target all of your hair follicles evenly, so you won’t find hairs post-treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this laser hair removal work on light-colored or blond hair?
Sadly, no. it can't effectively treat extremely light or blond hair.
Can your remove all my hair in one Laser Hair Removal session?
No, you usually need 3-6 sessions, primarily due to the nature of hair growth cycles. Human hair grows in three distinct phases: anagen (growth phase), catagen (transitional phase), and telogen (resting phase). Laser hair removal is most effective during the anagen phase when your hair is actively growing, and the follicle is most susceptible to the laser's energy. However, different hairs are in different stages of this cycle at any given time.
For this reason, we need multiple sessions to target hairs as they enter the anagen phase, ensuring that we treat all follicles effectively. This phased approach is crucial for achieving long-lasting hair reduction, as it systematically targets and disrupts the growth cycle of your hair follicles.
Am I a good candidate for laser hair removal?
If you’re an adult with unwanted hair that is darker (red, brown, black) and you've not recently tanned or burned, you're a good candidate for hair removal.
If you're pregnant or trying to get pregnant you shouldn't undergo hair removal.
Laser hair removal sadly doesn't work on very light or blond hair.
