All advantages at a glance
We work exclusively with the SPARK PRO diode laser and IPL by the company formatk.
A professional and safe treatment at an affordable price
Through a careful skin and hair analysis before the first treatment and the resulting individual adjustments of the treatment device to your individual needs.
No more ingrown hairs or nasty shaving marks
The ingrown hairs are significantly softer and finer and grow in noticeably less or not at all.
Great and visible results after the 1st treatment
Already after the first treatment a significantly slower hair growth and a noticeable hair reduction can be noticed.
No problems for tanned skins
With this method, permanent hair removal is possible with little contrast between skin and hair colour.
Pre-treatment care
Shave
The areas to be treated must be shaved the last time 1-2 days before the treatment so that short hair stubble can be visible.
No epilation
The hair must still have its root to be successfully sclerosed. Avoid waxing, sugaring, depilatory cream, epilating and tweezing, etc. for 6 weeks before the treatment.
Clean skin
Immediately before the treatment, the areas of skin to be treated should be free of oil, creams or other beauty products. A superficial cleansing can be done in the studio before the treatment.
Sunbathing
Avoid sunbathing for 2-3 days before the treatment. Reddened skin or skin burned by the sun cannot be treated with the laser and the treatment must be postponed.
Hair removal procedure
First consultation
During your individual first consultation we discuss the procedure of laser hair removal and ensure that the treatment is safe and effective for you.
Treatment
The body area to be treated is cleaned and coated with a cooling ultrasound gel. This gel keeps the skin cool during the treatment and optimizes the gliding of the handpiece over the skin to enable a pleasant treatment.
Protection
Laser safety goggles provided in the studio MUST be worn to protect the eyes. Our clients receive only the highest quality protective glasses from the companies laservision and formatk. After each client, the goggles are cleaned with disinfectant intended for this purpose.
Method
The treatment is performed with the High End SPARK PRO diode laser by the company formatk. It is the best choice when it comes to efficient and permanent hair removal. Read more about the procedure under Theory & Technique.
After the treatment
After the treatment, everyday life can be continued without problems. Desirable indications such as possible perifollicular (surrounding the hair) edema (water retention) or erythema (redness) usually disappear after a few minutes to 2-3 days.
Sun
Sunbathing and solarium visits should be avoided 2-3 days after the treatment to avoid possible skin irritations.
After the treatment
During the first 14 days
After 10-14 days the hair sclerosed at the root falls out.
After two weeks
There shouldn’t be noticeable hair growth for 1-2 weeks and no shaving should be necessary during this time.
Next treatment
Once the usual hair growth has returned it is time for the next treatment. Depending on the treated area this is between 4-12 weeks.
Theory and technique
The principle of laser hair removal
A diode laser is the best choice when it comes to permanent and efficient hair removal from thick black to dark blond hair.
The aim of epilation with light is to damage the hair papilla and its nutrient supply so that it permanently stops the hair growth. At 60°-70° C the hair root’s protein structures are denatured and the follicle’s finest supply channels (cappilaries) as well as the cells responsible for hair growth (stem cells) are destroyed.
Light of 400 to 1000 nm wavelength permeates the skin. Only color pigments (melanin and hemoglobin) absorb the light energy of these wavelengths and convert it into heat (selective photothermolysis). Melanin is formed in the hair follicle and is concentrated there. Therefore, it is possible to selectively heat the hair follicle with a very short but high-energy light pulse without affecting the surrounding skin tissue.
A treatment with IPL (especially IPL SHR), IPL home devices and other low power diodes can be problematic because the hair follicle is often not completely heated and therefore not destroyed, but only damaged. Sometimes the follicle regenerates completely or becomes only weaker. As a result, after some time the hair grows back normally, thinner or lighter.
The SPARK PRO diode laser by the company formatk is one of the most powerful lasers for permanent hair removal. The laser is clinically tested, has the highest level of certifications (FDA approval, Medical CE) and meets all the important criteria for an effective and safe treatment. You can rely on science and clinically proven results.
Light pulse technology
The light pulse technology on which laser epilation is based depends on your own hair growth cycle.
This growth cycle is divided into three phases which are always repeated. Only hairs in the active growth phase can be sclerosed and thereby destroyed in the long term. The hair cycle is asynchronous, which means that only about 15-20% of the hairs are in the desired active growth phase at the same time.
Hairs that are in the transitional or resting phase cannot be destroyed. This is why the treatment is repeated several times. On average, 6-10 treatments can be expected at intervals of about 4-12 weeks. The more often an area is treated, the longer the intervals between the treatments.
100% hair removal can never be guaranteed or promised. Individual hairs will always remain, no matter which treatment method you undergo. However, these hairs should hardly bother you, as they are usually very thin and light.
Hair removal of light hair with light epilation (light pulse technology such as diode laser and IPL) is always a very delicate matter. Since light hair lacks melanin (the pigment), less heat is generated in the follicle and therefore it is rarely destroyed, but only damaged. Lighter hair is usually treated more successfully with IPL. However, it is important to know that a strong IPL device is necessary to achieve good results.
Another method of hair removal for light hair is needle epilation. This treatment is very costly, takes a long time, has more side effects and is hard to get, because very few studios or doctors specialize in it.
It is recommended to have a consultation to find out which of the two light pulse methods is the best for you (for light hair, IPL is more suitable). If desired, a first session can always be booked. If, however, after this session there are no visible results, you should rather save the money.
Growth phase
Transition phase
Resting phase
In general, one speaks of long-term and permanent hair removal. “Long-term“ refers to a certain period of time, while „permanent“ should leave you hairless. This is important to know because after a successful treatment, so-called „sleeper hairs“ can always come back. Everyone has these kinds of hairs and their growth can be activated at any time by the hormonal cycle, which is related to the hair cycle. In case of a hormonal change it is normal that hairs can come back again. In order to get rid of these hairs as well, one should expect 1-2 follow-up treatments per year to maintain the desired result.

Lash & Brow Lifting
What is a lash and brow lifting?
A lash lift, also known as lash lifting, is a more natural alternative to traditional eyelash extensions or the constant use of mascara. Brow lifting offers a natural alternative to microblading or permanent makeup.
During a lash lift, the lashes are lifted and fixed in a curled position, then tinted to create the appearance of longer lashes. Brow lifting similarly volumizes and shapes the eyebrows naturally, creating a glamorous look and making the eyes appear more open and awake.
The effects of lash and brow lifting typically last between 4 to 8 weeks, depending on individual lash or brow growth and the current phase of the hair growth cycle.
Lash lifting is suitable for anyone seeking optimal lash curvature without the use of artificial extensions, lash curlers, or mascara. Brow lifting is also suitable for those desiring naturally voluminous and glamorous eyebrows.
Before the lash or brow lifting procedure, the desired lift effect is discussed, and silicone pads of appropriate sizes (used only in lash lifting) are chosen to achieve the desired result. These pads help lift the lashes upward, making them appear longer. For brow lifting, similar products are used to comb and fix eyebrow hairs into the desired shape, resulting in a polished look where the eyebrows also appear fuller. This lifting effect on the eyebrows opens up the eyes and makes them appear more awake.
Tinting the lashes further enhances the lifting effect, so lash tinting is often recommended during a lash lifting treatment. Similarly, tinting the eyebrows is a good way to accentuate the results of brow lifting. Applying a keratin treatment, such as Doublfiller, afterward revitalizes the lash/brow structure, making them stronger and shinier. This step is also performed during brow lifting.
To ensure the lifted effect lasts as long as possible, it’s recommended to avoid exposing the lashes/brows to steam, hot water, and heat for the first 48 hours, except for following any additional instructions provided.
The lash/brow lifting products used are from the reputable German company Augenmanufaktur.
