What is the difference between visiting a beauty spa or doctor clinic for hair removal in Singapore?

Doctor's Answer

SHR and IPL are good options for hair removal. There are other lasers that can also remove hair effectively.

The main differences between medical clinics and beauty spas are:

1) A ability to manage complications .

No procedure hair removal is 100% safe. This is a complication, it is important to manage complications using prescription-grade creams and medicines.

2) More Effective Medical-grade Lasers

Only licensed medical clinics are authorized by the Ministry of Health to possess medical-grade hair removal lasers, which are more effective. This translates to cost-and time-savings in the long-run.

Hope that this helps.
