Discover Smooth, Carefree Skin
What is laser hair removal?
At Ewà Medical Aesthetics in Calgary laser hair removal is a cutting-edge cosmetic procedure that uses concentrated light energy to target and disable hair follicles. We use the advanced Genesis Laser to provide long-lasting hair reduction. The laser emits a specific wavelength of light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicles, damaging them and inhibiting future hair growth. This process allows for effective hair reduction on various body areas, revealing your smoothest skin without the constant frustration and cost of traditional hair-removal methods.
Beyond the Razor
What is the laser hair removal procedure like?
At Ewà Medical Aesthetics, we prioritize your comfort throughout the laser hair removal process. During the procedure:
- The treatment area is cleaned and prepared
- Protective eyewear is provided
- A cooling gel may be applied to enhance comfort
- The laser device is passed over the treatment area
- You may feel a slight snapping sensation as the laser targets hair follicles
- The procedure typically takes 15-60 minutes, depending on the treatment area
Most clients describe the sensation as tolerable and compare it to a rubber band snap against the skin.

Frequently Asked Questions
The number of laser hair removal sessions varies depending on individual factors such as hair color, skin type, and the area being treated. Most people require 6-8 sessions for optimal results. However, some may need more or fewer treatments. At Ewà Medical Aesthetics, we'll create a personalized treatment plan during your consultation to ensure you achieve the best possible outcome.
Most clients describe laser hair removal as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. The sensation is often compared to a rubber band snapping against the skin. At Ewà Medical Aesthetics, we use advanced cooling technology to minimize discomfort during treatment. Many clients find laser hair removal more comfortable than waxing or electrolysis.
Laser hair removal provides long-lasting hair reduction, but it's not always permanent. Most clients experience significant, long-term reduction in hair growth. However, some hair follicles may eventually become active again due to hormonal changes or other factors. Occasional maintenance treatments can help maintain your results.
Laser hair removal works best on dark hair because the laser targets the pigment in the hair follicle. It's most effective on black, brown, and dark blonde hair. Red, grey, and white hairs have less pigment and are more challenging to treat. During your consultation at Ewà Medical Aesthetics, we'll assess your hair color and recommend the most suitable treatment options.
As a precautionary measure, we don't recommend laser hair removal during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. While there's no evidence that the procedure is harmful, we prioritize the safety of both mother and baby. We advise waiting until after you've finished breastfeeding before starting or resuming laser hair removal treatments. Dr. Folake Pepple can discuss alternative hair removal methods that are safe during this time.
