Permanent hair removal with a diode laser

Professional laser hair removal in Basel and the surrounding area

Smooth skin without constant shaving – with modern diode laser technology, Beautylounge offers a safe and effective solution for professional laser hair removal in Basel and the surrounding area. We work with the LS10 Metal Triple Diode Laser, a modern system with three precisely matched wavelengths (755 nm, 808 nm and 1064 nm). This allows the energy to work at different depths of the skin and treat a wide range of hair and skin types effectively. All treatments are carried out by V-NISSG-certified specialists and are based on thorough advice – for professional laser hair removal with measurable results and a high level of safety.

DIODE LASER - THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY

Diode laser technology is now considered the gold standard in professional permanent hair reduction. Unlike IPL, the diode laser works with a precisely defined wavelength that is specifically matched to the melanin in the hair follicle. This means the laser energy can travel in a controlled way and precisely down to the hair root without scattering unnecessarily into the surrounding tissue.

This targeted delivery of energy heats the hair follicle effectively and damages it permanently, while the skin surface is protected as much as possible. The diode laser offers a constant penetration depth and even energy distribution, which leads to more reliable results and much greater effectiveness – even with deeper hair roots.

A key advantage of diode laser technology is its adaptability. Settings such as energy, pulse duration and frequency can be tailored to your skin type, hair colour, hair thickness and treatment area. This makes the treatment suitable for a wide range of skin and hair types while keeping it safe and controlled.

In comparison with older methods, most clients find diode laser treatment to be much more comfortable. Modern cooling systems reduce the heat load on the skin surface and minimise the risk of skin irritation. The result is an effective, well-tolerated treatment with a lasting reduction in hair growth and visibly smoother skin.

Meet the laser specialists on our team

V-NISSG: officially certified laser specialists

Our diode laser treatments are carried out exclusively by specially trained laser specialists. Jessica (Oberwil), Aurore (Basel 1), Virginie (Riehen) and Adeline (Basel 2) have successfully completed the V-NISSG laser safety course required by law since 2024 and have in-depth expertise in the safe use of laser and light systems.

Thanks to their training and experience, they make sure every treatment is professionally planned, tailored to you and carried out to the highest safety and quality standards. This is how we guarantee professional, controlled and trustworthy laser treatment – now at 4 of our 6 studios.

HOW LASER HAIR REMOVAL WORKS

Laser hair removal is based on a precise physical principle: light energy is guided via the hair's natural pigment – melanin – right down to the hair root. There, heat is generated in a controlled way, permanently damaging the hair follicle and reducing hair growth in the long term, while the surrounding tissue is protected as much as possible.

Thanks to modern triple diode technology with three matched wavelengths (755, 808 and 1064 nm), the energy can work precisely at different depths of the skin and be tailored to your skin and hair type. As only hairs in the active growth phase can be treated effectively, several sessions are needed to achieve even, lasting hair reduction.

Who is laser hair removal suitable for?

Laser hair removal with triple diode technology can be precisely adapted to different skin and hair types. The treatment is particularly effective on darker hair, as the melanin it contains conducts the laser energy ideally.

Even more sensitive or darker skin types can be treated safely – with the right professional settings. What matters is an individual assessment during your consultation.

Individual skin and hair analysis

Before every treatment we check your skin condition, hair structure and any contraindications to make sure the treatment is safe and as effective as possible. We also talk openly about which results you can realistically expect for your skin and hair type.

THE LASER HAIR REMOVAL PROCESS

Personal consultation & analysis

Every laser hair removal treatment starts with a personal consultation. We analyse your skin type, hair structure and any contraindications. On this basis, we put together a structured treatment plan and set realistic goals for long-term hair reduction.

Preparing the skin

Before the treatment, the skin is cleansed and the treatment area prepared. The hair should be shaved so that the energy can be directed straight into the hair root. We do not treat heavily tanned skin or skin with acute irritation.

The treatment

During laser hair removal, the energy is delivered to the skin in a controlled way through the handpiece. Modern diode laser technology with integrated cooling protects the skin surface while the hair root is treated in a targeted way. How long it takes depends on the area of the body.

Treatment intervals & sessions

As not all hairs are in the active growth phase at the same time, several sessions are needed. Usually 6–10 treatments are carried out at individually set intervals to achieve an even, lasting reduction in hair growth.

BEWARE OF “CHEAP DEALS”

Laser devices and qualification standards vary considerably on the market. Alongside the technical equipment, training, experience and individually tailored treatment settings play a decisive role in safety and the quality of the results.

With conspicuously cheap offers in particular, it pays to look more closely: the power of the device, professional qualifications and structured treatment planning are key factors for safe, lasting hair reduction. With inadequate technology or a lack of expertise, unwanted skin reactions can occur.

At Beautylounge we work exclusively with modern triple diode technology and V-NISSG-certified specialists. Our aim is controlled, professional treatment to the highest quality and safety standards.

Our packages

Why a package with us is worth it!

Diode laser treatment reaches its full effect over several sessions. That is exactly what Beautylounge's diode laser packages were developed for. They are designed to be medically sensible, financially attractive and easy to plan in the long term, giving you an efficient, transparent way to reach the result you want, step by step.

Compared with single treatments, a 6-session package gives you a significantly lower price per session. A package is always cheaper than six individual appointments and – depending on the area – lets you save up to around 20%. Example: with single treatments for the legs (CHF 449.– per session), six appointments would cost CHF 2’694.– in total. With the 6-session package, the price is CHF 2’199.–. That is a saving of CHF 495.–, or around 18%.

For women, packages start at just CHF 399.– for smaller areas such as the upper lip or chin. Larger areas such as half or full legs benefit particularly from the package model, as the price per session drops significantly. Popular areas such as the bikini line or the full face are also clearly structured as packages and cheaper in the long run than single bookings.

The packages are clearly structured by area and vary by body area and between women and men. This keeps the pricing transparent and fair – whether for smaller areas such as the upper lip, chin or underarms, or for larger areas such as the legs, back or intimate area.

For men too, our diode laser packages are an attractive option – from smaller areas such as the nipples to large areas such as the back, chest & stomach or legs. With stronger hair growth in particular, a package really pays off, as several sessions are needed and the financial advantage over single treatments is clearly noticeable.

Everything you need to know about diode laser hair removal

What is laser hair removal with a diode laser?

For at least six weeks before the treatment, hair must not be plucked, waxed or epilated. Shaving is allowed and recommended. In addition, you should avoid intense sun exposure and sunbeds 2–4 weeks before the treatment.

What exactly is the V-NISSG?

The V-NISSG (the Swiss ordinance on protection against hazards from non-ionising radiation and sound) is a legal regulation, valid throughout Switzerland, for the safe use of laser, IPL and other energy-based devices in aesthetic cosmetics.

The V-NISSG is binding and is monitored by the Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH). It ensures that treatments are carried out only by professionally trained staff and guarantees the highest safety and quality standards for clients.

How does laser hair removal work?

In laser hair removal, focused light energy is guided via the hair's natural pigment, melanin, down to the hair root. There, the energy is converted into heat, which heats the hair follicle in a controlled way and permanently damages it. The surrounding tissue is largely spared.

The growth phase of the hair is decisive for the success of the treatment. Only hairs in the so-called anagen phase have an active connection to the hair root and can be treated effectively. As not all hairs are in this phase at the same time, several sessions are needed to achieve an even and long-lasting hair reduction.

With modern diode laser technology, the energy can be tailored precisely and individually to your skin type, hair structure and treatment area, which makes laser hair removal an effective and safe method of permanent hair reduction.

How many treatments are needed for permanent hair removal?

Not all hairs are in the active growth phase at the same time. Only about 20 to a maximum of 70% of the hairs can be treated effectively per session. Hairs in the transitional or resting phase grow back later, which is why several sessions are necessary.

How long does a laser hair removal session take?

The length of the laser treatment depends on the size of the area being treated. Small zones take about 10–15 minutes, larger areas such as the legs or back up to 60 minutes.

Is the result the same for everyone?

No. The result is individual and depends heavily on hair structure, hair colour, skin type and hormonal influences. Dark, strong hair responds particularly well to the treatment. Very fine, light or grey hair responds much less well, or not at all.

Is laser hair removal permanent?

Laser hair removal delivers a long-term and, in many cases, permanent reduction in hair growth. Treated hair follicles are specifically damaged, so that little or no hair grows back in these areas, and any that does is noticeably finer.

As hormonal changes or individual factors can influence hair growth, a few top-up treatments after some years can make sense in some cases. Overall, laser hair removal is regarded as one of the most effective methods of permanent hair reduction.

When does the hair fall out after laser treatment?

The treated hairs do not fall out immediately. As a rule, they come away from the skin on their own after about two to three weeks. The timing can vary depending on your skin and hair type.

What happens after laser hair removal?

After the laser treatment, the skin may show redness, a feeling of warmth or tightness. These reactions are normal and usually fade within a few hours, or after one to two days at the latest.

What should be avoided after a laser session?

After laser hair removal, you should avoid saunas, steam baths, very hot showers and intense heat for a few days. In addition, high sun protection (SPF 30–50) is necessary.

Does laser hair removal hurt?

Most people find modern diode laser hair removal easy to tolerate. During the treatment you may feel a brief warmth or a slight prickle, comparable to a flick on the skin.

Thanks to built-in cooling systems, the skin surface is protected during the treatment, which noticeably reduces the sensation of heat. Sensitivity and pain perception can vary depending on the area of the body and the individual.

Which skin types is laser hair removal suitable for?

Laser hair removal using modern diode laser technology is suitable for many different skin and hair types. The treatment is especially effective on darker hair, as the melanin it contains conducts the laser energy optimally.

With individually adjusted settings, more sensitive or darker skin types can also be treated safely. In a personal consultation, we check whether laser hair removal is suitable for your skin and hair structure and which results you can realistically expect.
