The advanced contact cooling system keeps skin comfortable and reduces discomfort.<\/p>\n<p><b>Safe for All Skin Tones<\/b> \u2013 Thanks to the Skintel\u2122 Melanin Reader, treatment parameters are customized for your exact skin type, ensuring optimal results with minimal risk.<\/p>\n<p><b>Minimized Downtime<\/b> \u2013 Most patients resume normal activities immediately after treatment. Sunscreen should be applied to treated areas prior to sun exposure.<\/p>\n<h3><b>What Areas Can Be Treated?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Virtually any body area can be treated, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Face &amp; Neck:<\/b> upper lip, chin, cheeks, nose, ears<\/li>\n<li><b>Upper Body: <\/b>arms, underarms, shoulders, chest, abdomen, back, hands<\/li>\n<li><b>Lower Body:<\/b> legs, feet, buttocks, bikini &amp; Brazilian area<\/li>\n<li><b>Other Areas:<\/b> fingers, toes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>How Does Vectus\u2122 Work?<br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>The laser energy targets melanin in the hair shaft, heating it to a temperature that destroys the follicle\u2019s stem cells.<br \/>\nThe surrounding skin remains protected due to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Gentle, plateau-type pulses &#8211; avoiding hot spots and burns<\/li>\n<li>Advanced cooling system that reduces skin temperature by up to 10\u00b0C<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This process is based on the <b>Extended Theory of Selective Photothermolysis<\/b>, ensuring that energy is diffused to follicular stem cells\u2014structures that cannot be directly targeted by li<\/p>\n<h3><b>What to Expect During Treatment<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Treatments are quick: smaller areas (lip, underarms) take just minutes; larger areas (legs, back) 20\u201330 minutes.<\/li>\n<li>Most patients describe the sensation as mild tingling or warmth. For sensitive areas, a numbing cream may be applied prior to the session.<\/li>\n<li>Temporary redness or swelling is possible but resolves quickly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>How Many Sessions Will I Need?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Because hair grows in cycles, multiple treatments are required.<br \/>\nOn average, <b>4\u20138 sessions<\/b> spaced 6\u201310 weeks apart provide optimal long-term reduction.<br \/>\nFactors such as hair thickness, hormone balance, and growth cycles influence the exact number of treatments.<\/p>\n<h3><b>How Should I Prepare?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>To ensure the best results:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Avoid tweezing or waxing for at least 4 weeks before treatment (shaving is allowed).<\/li>\n<li>Arrive with the treatment area clean and shaved.<\/li>\n<li>No self-tanner, solarium or sun exposure for 5 days prior to treatment (use sunscreen for your sun exposure)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Is It Safe?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Yes The Vectus\u2122 laser was designed with <b>one of the widest safety margins<\/b> in the industry, featuring:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Even energy distribution (no hot spots)<\/li>\n<li>Skin cooling technology for comfort and protection<\/li>\n<li>The <b>Skintel\u2122 Melanin Reader<\/b> for personalized treatment settings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u2705 Say goodbye to waxing, shaving, and ingrown hairs.<br \/>\nWith the <b>Vectus\u2122 laser<\/b>, you\u2019ll achieve <b>smoother skin safely, effectively, and more comfortably<\/b> than ever before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[],"services":[146,143],"class_list":["post-3217","our-services","type-our-services","status-publish","hentry","services-body","services-treatments"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Vectus\u2122 Laser Hair Removal - Laser Hair Removal Thermi - Dr. Stamatiou<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Hair removal with Vectus Laser at Excel Medi Spa in Thermi for safe, fast, and effective results on all skin types.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/drstamatiou.com\/en\/our-services\/vectus-laser\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Vectus\u2122 Laser Hair Removal - Laser Hair Removal Thermi - Dr. Stamatiou\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hair removal with Vectus Laser at Excel Medi Spa in Thermi for safe, fast, and effective results on all skin types.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/drstamatiou.com\/en\/our-services\/vectus-laser\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"\u03a0\u03bb\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc\u03c2 \u03c7\u03b5\u03b9\u03c1\u03bf\u03c5\u03c1\u03b3\u03cc\u03c2 V.
