Med-Laser Zentrum GmbH (Riehen)

Welcome to Med-Laser Center The desire of mankind to look younger and fresher was already rooted in ancient times. Even the ancient Egyptians had their noses operated on for aesthetic reasons. In addition to the classic cosmetic surgeries, newer and more sophisticated methods have been developed in the last 20 years to satisfy this desire. Not a year goes by without newer and gentler laser therapies for skin resurfacing, wrinkle treatment, hair removal or removal of pigmentation spots or tattoos being touted. The methods of correcting the body silhouette (liposuction) have also changed and can now be performed without problems on an outpatient basis and without anesthesia. Today's trend is for gentle treatments, where people do not have to accept any loss in daily life. Many people cannot afford to be away from work or social life for a week or two for cosmetic reasons. In order to meet all these requirements, it is necessary to have years of experience, as well as laser and other equipment that meets the latest technical standards. It is important to consult each person personally in order to offer the most suitable treatment for them. Sometimes it is also important to curb exaggerated beauty claims that cannot be realized. Some wrinkles are also beautiful and a sign of personality. Permanent hair removal with laser or IPL The light pulse of the laser penetrates the skin without harming it. This light is intercepted in the dark pigment of the hair and converted into heat within nanoseconds. The very short but intense heat destroys the hair and the associated hair root without heating the skin itself. The patient only feels a slight burning sensation. In general, the darker and thicker the hair and the lighter the skin, the better the results. Since the laser can only treat hair that is currently in the growth phase, several treatments are necessary for a good and lasting result. After the treatment, only a short reddening of the skin is visible. In any case, the patients can go out on the street again afterwards without any worries. The skin becomes more beautiful after the treatment. Smaller scars, ingrown hairs and pimples disappear. As a positive side effect, skin tightening occurs due to the stimulation of collagen fibers. We have several systems available for hair removal with the laser. Depending on the type of hair and skin color, we decide which system to use.
