Hair removal

Diode laser hair removal uses light to target the follicle and reduce unwanted hair gradually, session after session. At Nova Center we combine diode laser with IPL photo-epilation and choose the right option for your skin and hair type, working area by area across the face and body, for both women and men. It suits people looking for long-lasting hair reduction who want to move on from waxing and tweezing. It is not total removal: results vary from person to person, and the number of sessions is defined in a prior assessment at our clinic in Les Corts, Barcelona.

How it works

Diode laser and pulsed light (IPL) act on the hair to reduce it progressively over several sessions. The technology and settings are adapted to each skin and hair type.

  1. 01

    Prior assessment

    Your skin phototype, the hair colour and thickness and the condition of the area are studied to assess whether the treatment is suitable and to adjust the settings to each case.

  2. 02

    Applying the light

    The diode laser or IPL equipment emits light that the melanin in the hair absorbs and turns into heat, with the aim of acting on the follicle while the skin is protected.

  3. 03

    Staggered sessions

    Since hair responds better in its growth phase and not all follicles are in it at the same time, the treatment is spread across several sessions to seek long-lasting hair reduction.

  4. 04

    Care and follow-up

    It is recommended to avoid the sun and tanning in the days leading up to and following each session and to follow the skin-care instructions; progress is reviewed throughout the treatment.

The procedure

  1. 1

Is it for me?

  • People who want to reduce hair progressively.
  • Those who can follow a plan of several sessions and avoid the sun between them.
  • With no contraindications for the technique after the assessment.

Contraindications

  • Recent sun exposure or tanned skin.
  • Photosensitising medication or certain skin conditions.
  • Infections, lesions or tattoos in the area to be treated (individual assessment).

What this page helps you decide

This page helps you understand when diode laser or IPL hair removal may be a fit —seeking long-lasting hair reduction in different areas— and what to expect according to your skin and your hair. The result depends on the phototype and on the hair colour and thickness, and it is not presented as total removal. It is not a diagnosis: the indication and the settings are confirmed in a prior assessment.

When it may not be the first option

  • You have very light, red or grey hair, which tends to respond worse due to its low melanin content.
  • You cannot avoid sun exposure or tanning between sessions.
  • You expect total hair removal with a single session.
  • There is infection, wounds or dermatitis in the area to be treated.
  • You take photosensitising medication without having had it assessed beforehand.

Questions for your assessment

  • Are my skin and hair type suitable for diode laser or IPL?
  • Which areas would be treated and how many sessions might be considered?
  • What hair reduction is reasonable to expect in my case?
  • What sun-care measures should I follow in the days leading up to and following the sessions?
  • How often are the sessions scheduled?
  • Might maintenance be needed later on?
  • Which areas am I interested in treating, and can I combine several in the same visit?
  • Should I discuss my skin and hair type, my sensitivity or any recent change with the centre beforehand?

Planning combinations

The hair-removal plan is organised by area and session according to each skin and hair type; the regimen and the number of sessions are defined in the prior assessment. We do not offer fixed packages or predefined protocols on this page.

Preparation & aftercare

Preparation

  • Shave the area on the indicated day before the session (no wax or root-level hair removal).
  • Avoid sun exposure and self-tanners in the preceding weeks.
  • Let us know about your medication, especially if it is photosensitising.

Aftercare

  • Use high sun protection on the treated area.
  • Avoid intense heat, sauna and sun exposure in the following days.
  • Follow the hydration guidelines provided by the professional.

Risks & side effects

  • Temporary redness or a sensation of warmth after the session.
  • In some cases, slight irritation that usually subsides within a short time.
  • The possible effects are explained during the assessment. If you have any doubts, consult the professional.

What you should know

  • Equipment

    We work with diode laser and IPL photo-epilation, choosing the technology to suit your skin and hair type.

  • Sessions

    Because hair grows in phases, a plan of several spaced-out sessions is usually suggested.

  • Sensation

    During the session you typically feel a brief warmth or a light snap, with the intensity adjusted to each area.

  • What it helps

    It is designed to reduce hair gradually and for the long term, not to remove it entirely.

  • Who it's for

    It is carried out on face and body areas, for both women and men, with settings tailored to each case.

  • Aftercare

    Between sessions it is best to shave rather than remove hair at the root, and to avoid direct sun exposure.

  • Price

    Prices are organised by area and by session, from 15 €, with differentiated rates for women and men.

  • Differences

    Unlike waxing, which removes hair at the root only temporarily, the laser acts on the follicle session after session.

Frequently asked questions

How many laser hair-removal sessions do I need?

A plan of several spaced-out sessions is usually recommended, since hair is worked on by growth phases. The exact number depends on each case and is assessed beforehand.

What is the difference between diode laser and IPL?

They are two light-based technologies with different characteristics. The suitable option is assessed according to your skin and hair type.

Can I wax between sessions?

Between sessions it is advisable to avoid root-level hair removal (wax or tweezers) and keep the area shaved. The specific guidelines are explained during the assessment.

Can I sunbathe during the treatment?

It is advisable to avoid sun exposure and self-tanners in the days leading up to and following each session, and to use high sun protection. The guidelines are explained in each case.

How is it different from waxing or traditional hair removal?

Waxing and tweezing remove hair at the root temporarily and it grows back; diode laser and IPL act on the follicle across several sessions to seek long-lasting hair reduction. It is not total removal and the result varies by skin and hair, so it is assessed in each case.

Is laser hair removal also for men?

Yes. We treat areas that are common for men —such as the back, chest, arms, neck or sideburns— with differentiated per-area pricing. The indication and settings are adjusted to each skin and hair type in the prior assessment.

Is the price per area or per session?

The price is guided by area and by session, with differentiated pricing for women and men that you can check in the price-by-area table. The number of sessions is adjusted to each case and set out in the prior assessment.

What does the session feel like?

It varies by area and by person; it is usually described as a brief warmth or a small snap on the skin. We work to make the session as comfortable as possible, and any discomfort is discussed before and during the treatment.

When do you start to notice hair reduction?

Since hair is worked on by growth phases, the reduction is seen progressively over the spaced-out sessions, not after a single one. The pace varies by phototype and by hair colour and thickness.

Do I need a prior assessment?

We recommend an assessment to confirm the treatment is suitable and define the protocol for your case.

Can I expect a specific result?

Results vary from person to person. We do not promise a specific result.
