Question 1

On which body areas and hair types can Quattrowave diode laser hair removal treatment be used?

Accepted Answer

The treatment can be safely used for facial and body treatments, as well as in intimate areas:
✅ on the face (e.g. mustache, chin)
✅ armpit
✅ arms, legs
✅ bikini line, intimate areas
✅ chest, abdomen, back (also for men)
✅ quattrowave diode laser hair removal can be successfully used on blonde, brown, red and black hair, except for completely gray hair, for which there is currently no solution that can be applied on a larger surface.
🚫 It is important that tattooed skin cannot be treated with any light-based technology, so we exclude such skin areas from the treatment.

Question 2

How should I prepare for laser hair removal treatment?

Accepted Answer

• Shave the area to be treated 24-48 hours before treatment.
 • Avoid waxing, epilation, or bleaching for 4 weeks prior to treatment.
 • Do not use self-tanners or solariums 1 week before treatment.
 • The skin should be cleansed, free of cream and makeup.
 • Avoid invasive cosmetic procedures in the area to be treated (e.g. peels) 1-3 weeks before treatment.
 • In the 2 days before the treatment, avoid using stronger cosmetics and skin scrubs, do not swim in water with a high chlorine content (swimming pool, beach), and on the day of the treatment, do not use any creams or cosmetics on the area to be treated.

Question 3

In which cases is laser hair removal NOT recommended?

Accepted Answer

• During pregnancy and breastfeeding.
 • If you are taking photosensitizing medications.
 • In case of sun allergy or sun sensitivity (skin test recommended).
 • Fresh tan, burns, active skin diseases (e.g. eczema, herpes, psoriasis, etc.)
 • Medical consultation is recommended if you have diabetes, epilepsy, or are taking blood-thinning or hormonal medications.
 • In the case of a pacemaker, specialist approval is required.
 • Metal prostheses and implants in the area to be treated.

Question 4

Does the treatment hurt?

Accepted Answer

Thanks to the advanced cooling system of the Quattrowave machine, the treatment is completely painless – a slight feeling of warmth or tingling may occur in the case of darker skin, but it does not burn or sting.

Question 5

How many treatments are needed for permanent hair removal?

Accepted Answer

Usually 5-6 sessions are enough for a lasting result, but this also depends on individual characteristics (hormonal balance, hair density, body area). In areas with thicker hair, 7-8 treatments may be necessary, but typically quattrowave diode laser technology requires 20-30% fewer treatments than the old type of diode laser or IPL.

Maintenance treatment is recommended 1–2 times a year.

Question 6

How long does it take to see the results?

Accepted Answer

Hair loss is noticeable after the first session , but after the 2nd-4th treatment, significantly fewer hairs grow back. The results are gradual, after several treatments, as we must remember that the majority of hair follicles are typically dormant or in a resting phase, and only 15-25% of them are reached during one treatment.

Question 7

What should I pay attention to after the Quattrowave diode laser hair removal treatment?

Accepted Answer

• Avoid sunbathing and solarium for 1 week.
 • Do not use perfume or antiperspirant directly on the treated area for 24 hours.
 • If possible, use special regenerating and sun protection cosmetics (which I can also offer in the salon) and a soothing, moisturizing cream (e.g. aloe vera, cicaplast)
 • Wait 24–48 hours before using a sauna or hot bath.

Question 8

What happens if I miss a treatment?

Accepted Answer

If you miss an appointment, the result is not necessarily lost, but the effectiveness may decrease .
It is important to schedule treatments every 4-6 weeks to achieve optimal results. Beyond this, the number of treatments required may increase.

Question 9

Why is Quattrowave diode laser better than IPL?

Accepted Answer

The Quattrowave diode laser combines four different wavelengths of laser light to target hair follicles more precisely and deeply than IPL, which uses scattered, less focused flashes of light. Quattrowave is more effective on all skin types, is less painful, and provides longer-lasting results with fewer treatments.

Question 10

Can laser hair removal be done in the summer?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Quattrowave laser hair removal can be safely performed in the summer , as long as the treated area is not freshly tanned and the client follows the post-treatment guidelines , such as avoiding intense sun exposure for 1 week and applying high SPF protection to freshly treated skin. The 1064 nm wavelength makes the technology particularly suitable for treating darker or tanned skin types.

Question 11

How does hair growth change after treatments?

Accepted Answer

During the treatment series, the hairs:
 • gradually thin out ,
 • they are becoming rare ,
 • and they grow back more slowly .

Most guests see a difference after the first 1-2 sessions. However, 5-6 treatments are usually required to achieve a lasting effect, and then 1-2 maintenance sessions per year are recommended.

Question 12

Are there any side effects of laser hair removal? How can they be prevented?

Accepted Answer

Laser hair removal, performed with modern technology and advanced cosmetic equipment (such as Quattrowave) , is very safe , but in rare cases, temporary redness and slight swelling may occur. These usually disappear within 1-2 hours. Side effects can be prevented or alleviated by :

• with proper skin care (soothing cream, sun protection),
 • avoiding the sun and heat (sauna, hot shower) for the first 1–2 days,
 • and by following the instructions exactly.

Question 13

How long does a treatment take on a specific body part?

Accepted Answer

The treatment time depends on the size of the treated area:
 • small area , e.g. armpit, mustache : 10–15 minutes,
 • bikini line: approx. 20–30 minutes,
 • legs, back or chest: 30–60 minutes.

Due to the high performance of the Quattrowave machine, treatments are faster than with traditional diode lasers or IPL systems.

Question 14

Is laser hair removal safe if I have many or suspicious moles?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but it is important to be careful and cautious beforehand . If there are many or suspicious-looking moles in the area to be treated, a dermatological examination is recommended before treatment . Larger moles are treated as exceptions during treatment, i.e. covered with a protective layer or omitted from laser treatment.
