What are the advantages of the Centre Laser Valbonne?
A doctor with established experience: Dr Milène VERA has been working with lasers for more than 20 years.
A medical consultation before treatment: skin examination, check for possible contraindications, then definition of your treatment course.
A first session under the doctor's supervision: Dr VERA sets the laser herself, taking your skin and hair into account.
Follow-up by the doctor: the doctor manages any complications and, if needed, writes a prescription: anaesthetic cream, cortisone-based cream.
The Riviera sun: getting the timing right
On the French Riviera, the main constraint of laser hair removal is the sun. Tanned skin absorbs part of the laser energy, with a risk of burns and marks: no session is therefore carried out on an area exposed to the sun in the previous two weeks. Starting in autumn is the simplest solution. SPF 50 sunscreen remains essential on the treated areas throughout the treatment course.
How to get started

During this appointment, Dr VERA examines the areas to be treated and explains how the treatment works and how to prepare; you can then schedule your first session. This consultation, compulsory before the first session, is free and with no obligation; it generally lasts 15 to 20 minutes.
