✅ How the diode laser works — and why it’s so effective
Many people think of diode laser hair removal mainly in terms of the end result — smooth skin without unwanted hair. The real power of this method is in how light interacts with the skin. A diode laser uses the principle of selective photothermolysis: the light targets melanin in the hair follicle, converts into heat, and reaches the dermal papilla — the “root” structure that supports hair growth. Over time, the follicle is gradually deactivated while the surrounding skin remains protected.
This way, the diode laser focuses precisely on unwanted hair without damaging nearby tissue. The result is visibly finer and sparser regrowth, fewer ingrown hairs, and a more even-looking skin tone. With a properly planned course of sessions, the effect is long-lasting, and the sensation during treatments is significantly more comfortable compared to traditional hair removal methods.
What laser technology do we use at ABI Beauty?
At ABI Beauty, we use professional diode laser systems built on technology by Coherent | DILAS . The components and diode bars used in our devices follow modern industry standards, helping ensure stable power, high precision, and consistent results across all of our clinics.
🔬 Laser Technology Comparison
Laser hair removal typically relies on three leading technologies — Diode, Alexandrite and Nd:YAG. They differ by wavelength, melanin sensitivity, depth of action, and safety profile. Our team helps you choose the best option based on your skin type, hair type, treatment area, and season.
At ABI Beauty, we work with a high-end diode system — often considered a “gold standard” for long-term hair reduction with minimal discomfort. The energy targets the hair follicle effectively while protecting the surrounding skin, which means fewer irritations and better results after each session.
Diode laser
Best for: most skin types, including tanned skin and darker skin tones.
- Often considered today’s “gold standard” for reliable, long-term reduction.
- Very effective on dense, dark hair.
- Fast and comfortable for large areas.
- Minimal discomfort — commonly described as a light “pinching” sensation.
This is the technology we use daily at ABI Beauty to deliver clean, long-lasting results with a skin-friendly approach.
Alexandrite laser
Best for: lighter skin with finer or lighter hair.
- Highly precise for finer, lighter hair in the right candidates.
- Popular for small, delicate areas — face, neck, jawline.
- More sensitive on darker skin and freshly tanned skin.
- Requires strict settings control to minimize surface redness.
Not ideal for every skin type — especially in summer or when the skin is recently tanned.
Nd:YAG laser
Best for: very dark skin tones and thicker hair.
- Penetrates the deepest into the dermis.
- Typically safer for higher Fitzpatrick skin types (darker skin).
- Often requires more sessions for an optimal result.
- Can feel more intense for some clients.
Used when standard settings or other technologies are not suitable or when extra caution is needed.
Not sure which technology is right for you? Use our quick online tool at the top of the page to see which laser is the best match for your skin and hair, and how many sessions you may need. On-site, our specialists assess your skin type, hair density, treatment area, and season to recommend the safest and most effective option (DIODE or ALEX) — no guessing, no burns, and predictable results. That’s why ABI Beauty clients often notice visible hair reduction even after the first session and smoother skin with fewer ingrown hairs.
Skin & Hair Types: Which Laser Technology Is Right for You?
The Alexandrite laser (755 nm) is specifically designed to target light, fine, and blonde hair, where melanin concentration is lower.
Its shorter wavelength is highly absorbed by melanin, making it effective for lighter hair types on fair skin phototypes (I–II).
Because of its higher melanin sensitivity, the Alexandrite laser requires strict parameter control and is not recommended for darker skin tones or tanned skin, where the risk of surface irritation or pigmentation increases.
When used on the right skin and hair combination, ALEX 755 nm provides precise energy delivery and visible hair reduction, especially in delicate or smaller treatment areas.
The Diode laser (808 nm) is widely regarded as the gold standard in laser hair removal due to its optimal balance between penetration depth, safety, and effectiveness.
This wavelength penetrates deeper into the skin, allowing it to effectively target the hair follicle while minimizing interaction with the epidermal melanin. As a result, it is suitable for a wide range of skin phototypes (I–V), including tanned skin, when proper parameters are applied.
The Diode laser delivers consistent results on dark, dense, and coarse hair, while offering a high level of comfort and skin protection. Its versatility makes it ideal for both small sensitive areas and large body zones, with predictable and long-term hair reduction when used in a proper treatment protocol.
Laser Hair Removal – How many sessions are needed?
For many of our clients, visible and satisfying results appear after the first 2–3 sessions. For long-lasting smooth skin and stable results, we recommend completing a full course of 6 to 8 treatments, performed at intervals of 30 to 45 days. The exact number of sessions is determined individually by our specialists, based on factors such as hair thickness and color, skin type, the treated area, as well as hormonal balance and medication use. After completing the main course, laser hair removal maintenance sessions are usually performed once or twice per year to preserve the achieved results. If you’d like a detailed explanation of laser hair removal results — when hair starts to shed, how results build over time, and what to realistically expect — we’ve covered everything in a dedicated guide.
How to Prepare for Laser Hair Removal
- ✅ The treatment area must be smoothly shaved (do not use an epilator or waxing).
- ⛔ Do not pluck or wax hair for at least 2 weeks before the procedure.
- 🌞 No sun exposure or tanning beds 2 days before and after treatment. Use SPF 50 sunscreen afterward.
- 💆 Facial areas are prepared on-site by our therapists.
- 🧼 The skin must be clean, with no creams, lotions, or products applied.
- 💊 Avoid medications or supplements that increase photosensitivity (7–10 days before the procedure).
Laser Hair Removal and Hair Growth Phases:
Laser hair removal is most effective when the hair is in the anagen phase – the active growth stage. During this phase, the hair follicle is connected to the dermal papilla, which allows the laser energy to permanently destroy the hair.
Hair Growth Phases:
Most suitable for treatment, because the hair follicle is connected to the dermal papilla, which is the actual target in laser hair removal.
A transitional phase in which the connection between the dermal papilla and the hair root weakens, reducing the effectiveness of light and thermal energy transfer.
This is a resting phase, during which the hair is completely detached, making its “bulb” and the dermal papilla non-responsive to treatment.
Optimal Treatment Intervals
Laser hair removal should be performed at intervals of 30–45 days. This depends on the treated area and the number of completed sessions. The goal is to target the maximum number of hairs in the anagen phase. If the interval is too short or too long, the effectiveness decreases.Maintaining the Results
After completing the main course, maintenance sessions are recommended once or twice per year.

Is laser hair removal painful and when do hairs fall out after treatment?
Is laser hair removal painful?
Laser hair removal is generally well tolerated. Most people describe the sensation as a mild warmth or light snapping feeling on the skin. Modern diode lasers are equipped with advanced cooling systems, which significantly reduce discomfort, even in sensitive areas. Pain levels vary depending on the treated zone, skin sensitivity, and hair thickness, but the procedure is considered minimally painful.
When do hairs fall out after laser hair removal?
Hair shedding typically begins around 10–14 days after the procedure. During this period, treated hairs gradually fall out naturally as the damaged follicles release them. This is a normal and expected part of the process and indicates that the treatment has been effective.
Contraindications for Laser Hair Removal
- 🚫 Pregnancy and breastfeeding – laser hair removal is not recommended during this period.
- ⚠️ Areas with tattoos, pigmentation, or moles are not treated directly. They are covered with protective cosmetic tape to ensure safety, while the surrounding area can be treated.

Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is a technique that allows the removal of unwanted hair on the face and full body, using equipment that targets the hair follicle.The ultimate goal of laser hair removal is the destruction of the dermal papilla (the hair “bulb”). Laser hair removal is especially recommended for people who are tired of frequent waxing, shaving, depilatory creams, and other hair removal methods—particularly when treating delicate areas such as the bikini area, underarms, and facial hair. In addition, diode laser hair removal is often recommended for people with certain conditions that may worsen with shaving. Laser hair removal can be performed in laser centers or medical offices, but in some cases the procedure is done in small neighborhood salons using non-professional systems, which may lead to burns. A consultation with a dermatologist is recommended. Depending on the area, several diode laser sessions are required.
How does it work and are there any requirements for laser hair removal?
Laser hair removal is performed with a device that removes not only the visible part of the hair, but also the root. It uses a light beam at a specific frequency that is absorbed by melanin in darker hairs. This energy is converted into heat, which destroys the follicles. The surrounding skin remains unaffected.
What does the laser hair removal procedure involve?
Preparation includes shaving and avoiding creams. The procedure is generally comfortable. Protective goggles are used during the session. The duration depends on the treated area. Mild redness may appear and usually fades quickly.
How many sessions are needed?
The required number of sessions varies—typically 4–6 for the face, and 5–10 for arms and legs. The interval between sessions is 4–6 weeks. For maintenance, sessions once or twice per year are recommended.
How much can laser hair removal cost?
The price depends on the area and the number of sessions. For small areas (upper lip, underarms)—usually 3–4 sessions, and for larger areas—up to 8–10. Choose a certified center to avoid risks.
Technology limitations
The procedure is most effective on dark hair and lighter skin. It is not recommended for blonde/white hairs and very dark skin with high melanin levels. Typically, around 80% of the hair is removed, and the remaining hair becomes fine “peach fuzz”.
Contraindications and risks
It may not be suitable when there is low contrast between hair and skin. For hormonal issues—consult a doctor. Moles should be assessed. After the procedure, avoid sun exposure and use SPF 50.
Why choose laser hair removal and when does hair fall out?
The technology is safe and effective. It is suitable for sensitive skin and multiple areas—face, arms, intimate area, etc. Hair typically starts shedding about 2 weeks after the procedure. At Abi Beauty, we use a dual handpiece for faster results and offer package pricing and promotions.
