Silky Secrets Laser Epilation

Laser depilation is the most effective of the currently used hair removal methods, as it removes hair permanently and does not damage the skin structure.

The procedure can be performed on all areas of the body, and women and men of different ages can benefit.

About us

Our salon uses a modern diode laser.

The efficiency of the diode laser is higher, which means that fewer procedures are needed to perform epilation and the desired result is achieved faster.

What is laser epilation?

Laser epilation is a convenient, fast and permanent way of hair removal. Unlike conventional methods such as waxing, shaving or chemical hair removal creams, Silky Secrets uses modern laser hair removal machines. Traditional methods can often be temporary, painful, and cause skin irritation or ingrown hairs.
  • Waxing removes the hair along with the root, but the process can be painful and the hair usually grows back within a few weeks.
  • Shaving is a quick fix, but its results are short-lived and often accompanied by skin irritation.
  • Chemical hair removal creams dissolve hair, but they can be aggressive and cause skin sensitivity or allergic reactions.
