Your journey, step by step
The free consultation: booked on Doctolib, it lasts 15 to 20 minutes. Dr VERA examines your skin and hair, checks for contraindications and suggests a suitable treatment course.
Preparation: before the first session, avoid the sun, stop using wax and epilators, and shave the area 48 hours before. All the instructions are given to you at the consultation.
The first session: it is supervised by Dr VERA, who sets the laser herself according to your skin and hair.
The following sessions: carried out by a trained assistant, in generous slots that allow time for careful work. They are about 6 weeks apart at first, then about 8 weeks apart.
Follow-up: between sessions, the team can be reached through Doctolib messaging. If needed, Dr VERA prescribes the appropriate treatments and manages any complications.

Per area, a treatment course generally includes 6 to 8 sessions. Sessions are short: about 5 minutes for the underarms, 20 minutes for the lower legs. Several areas can be grouped in the same session, which means fewer trips from Mougins.
