Aesta Aesthetics offers laser hair removal in Lahore using Candela and Soprano systems, including diode laser technology. The right device depends on your skin tone, hair type and treatment area. Most patients need around 6–8 sessions, spaced weeks apart. Results vary by individual factors.
Not all laser hair removal is the same. The device, the settings and the person operating it all change how comfortable and effective your sessions are.
At Aesta Aesthetics, we choose the technology around the patient, not the other way around. This page explains what we use, why, and how to decide if it suits you.

What laser technology does Aesta Aesthetics use?
Aesta Aesthetics uses Candela and Soprano systems, both well-known names in medical-grade laser hair removal. Having more than one platform lets the practitioner match the laser to your skin and hair, rather than using one setting for everyone.

What is a diode laser, and why does it matter?
A diode laser is a type of laser that targets the pigment in the hair follicle while sparing the surrounding skin. Soprano systems use diode technology. Many patients find it a comfortable option because treatment can use gentler, repeated passes over the area.
How do Candela and Soprano compare?
| Candela | Soprano (diode) | |
|---|---|---|
| Technology type | Medical-grade laser platform | Diode laser |
| Often chosen for | Different skin tones and hair types, as assessed in consultation | Larger areas such as legs and back |
| Treatment feel | Short pulses, a brief snapping sensation | Gradual warming, often described as more comfortable |
| Final choice made by | Your practitioner, after a skin and hair assessment | Your practitioner, after a skin and hair assessment |
Which one suits you is decided at your consultation, not by preference alone.
Which areas can be treated?
Aesta Aesthetics treats most areas people ask about:
- Underarm laser: a small, quick area, usually a short appointment
- Bikini laser: needs careful settings because the skin is more sensitive
- Face laser hair removal: upper lip, chin and cheeks, with treatment planned around finer hair
- Laser hair removal for men: beard line, neck, back and chest
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients need roughly 6–8 sessions. Hair grows in cycles, and the laser only works on hair in its active growth phase. That is why sessions are spaced about 4–8 weeks apart, depending on the area. Results vary by individual factors such as hormones, hair thickness and skin tone.
What about side effects and aftercare?
Common laser hair removal side effects include temporary redness, mild swelling and a warm, sunburn-like feeling that typically settles within hours to a couple of days. Less common effects, such as pigment changes, are why a proper assessment matters.
Basic laser hair removal aftercare:
- Avoid direct sun and use SPF 30+ daily.
- Skip hot showers, saunas and heavy exercise for the first 24–48 hours.
- Don’t wax, pluck or thread between sessions. Shaving is fine.
- Moisturise gently and avoid scrubs or harsh actives on the area.
Sun protection matters year-round in Lahore, especially in the hotter months.
How much does laser hair removal cost?
Laser hair removal cost depends on the area, the number of sessions and the device suited to you. We don’t quote a single price here because pricing is based on your assessment. Book a consultation and Aesta Aesthetics will give you a clear figure before you commit.
FAQs
Is laser hair removal permanent?
It typically gives long-term hair reduction rather than guaranteed permanence. Some patients need occasional maintenance sessions.
Does it hurt?
Sensation varies. Most patients describe a quick snap or warm pulse, and comfort differs by area and individual.
Can I have laser hair removal during summer?
Often yes, but tanned or sunburnt skin may need to wait. Your practitioner will check your skin first.
Do I need to shave before my appointment?
Yes, usually 12–24 hours beforehand. Don’t wax or pluck for several weeks before.
Is it suitable for darker skin tones?
It can be, with the right device and settings. That’s exactly why a pre-treatment assessment matters.
Who shouldn’t have laser hair removal?
Pregnancy, certain medications and some skin conditions may need a delay or a different approach. Tell your practitioner everything at your consultation.
