Hair Removal


Excess and unwanted hair is a common problem as the unwanted hair may grow in places where we simply do not want it to. There are many ways to remove unwanted hairs but which method is the most effective in achieving permanent hair removal? Conventional hair removal methods such as shaving, plucking, waxing and depilatory creams provide temporary solutions that are often inconvenient, messy and irritating to the skin.

How KPL Works

KPL uses intense light energy to safely and effectively remove unwanted hair from any parts of the body, putting an end to routine shaving and waxing. The light energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, melanin, which then converts to heat. The heat damages the hair follicle and destroys its ability to re-grow without harming the surrounding tissues.

Regina uses the latest advance FDA approved, patented pulsed light technology which delivers a higher performance with reduced side effects compared to other KPL devices.

Hair Growth Cycle

It is important to understand the hair growth cycle to understand how the hair removal treatment works. Hair growth and shedding goes through 3 phases in a continuous cycle. The duration that the hair follicle spends in each phase is determined by genetics, hormones and the area of the body.



1. Anagen (Growing) Stage

During the anagen stage, the growing period of the hair follicle, the hair follicle is directly connected to the blood vessels and the hair has an abundance of melanin. The hair follicles at this stage typically last about 3 to 6 years. Hair removal treatments can only effectively produce long-term hair reduction if the unwanted hair is treated during the anagen phase.

2. Catagen (Transition) Stage

The hair follicle is no longer connected to the blood supply but the hair follicle cannot be permanently disabled at this stage as the hair is not visible and capable of absorbing the light. This phase will last about 2 weeks, during which the hair stops growing but is not yet shed.

3. Telogen (Resting or Shedding) Stage

Hair follicle is no longer connected to anything and is preparing to fall out. As the hair is not visible and capable of absorbing the light, it therefore cannot be destroyed. The Telogen phase will last 5-6 weeks, at the end of which the hair falls out and new hair starts to grow.

Treating Process


Step 1: Pre-treatment consultation

Our team of experienced consultants will conduct a free one-to-one consultation prior to the treatment session to address each customer’s concern about unwanted hair and also to make an assessment of the skin type, hair type and physical health conditions. Our consultants will also explain to you about the hair growth cycle, hair structure, pre-treatment instructions and the hair-removing process.

Step 2: Skin Check

Prior to each treatment session, we will check each customer’s skin condition, hair quality, and volume of hair to determine the energy and pulses of light suitable for each customer.

Step 3: Specially Formulated Cooling Gel

Treatment begins by trimming away the hair above the surface of the skin. The area to be treated will be cleansed and a specially formulated cooling gel will be applied to the skin.

This cooling gel from Japan has added whitening ingredients to further enhance the results of the treatment.



Step 4: Light Exposure

Customers will be provided with protective eye wear to prevent light exposure to the eyes. The hand-piece device is then applied to the skin while light-based energy is emitted in highly controlled pulses destroying the hair follicles.



Step 5: Cooling Down

The gel will be wiped away and some hair may be wiped off with it. Additional hair may fall out over the next few weeks.

Step 6: Aftercare

Moisturizing essence will be applied to the treated area to soothe the skin after treatment. The use of sun screen is recommended on any treated areas exposed to the sun.
