Botox or fillers: what’s the difference and which one to choose?
One of the most common questions patients ask is: “Doctor, should I get Botox or fillers?” These two treatments are often confused. Let’s explain in
Introduction
Laser hair removal is one of the most popular methods of removing unwanted hair. In the sunny Orihuela Costa, where people wear light clothing most of the year, smooth skin is not only a matter of aesthetics but also comfort. With the right treatment plan, results last for years.
Myths and reality
The most common question is: ‘Is it forever?’ Laser energy destroys hair follicles in the active growth phase. Hair becomes thinner and less frequent after a course of treatments. However, complete disappearance depends on individual factors such as hormones and body area. In practice, the effect lasts for years with occasional maintenance sessions.
How many sessions are needed
One or two sessions are not enough because hair grows in cycles. A full course of 6–10 sessions with 4–6 week intervals is required. The exact number depends on the area: facial zones usually need more, legs less.
Influencing factors
— Skin and hair type: light skin with dark hair responds best.
— Hormonal balance: changes (such as puberty or pregnancy) can trigger regrowth.
— Treatment area: hormonal zones (upper lip, chin) often need more sessions.
Advantages for clients
✔ Time saving: no more shaving or waxing routines.
✔ Cost effective: in the long run, laser is cheaper than regular waxing.
✔ Comfort: no skin irritation, no ingrown hairs, no redness.
When to start
The best time is autumn and winter, when sun exposure is minimal. Still, modern lasers allow safe treatments year-round with proper sun protection advice from your doctor.
FAQ
— Is it painful? Cooling systems minimize discomfort.
— Is it suitable for men? Yes, especially for back, chest, shoulders.
— Can it be done on tanned skin? Yes, but requires medical consultation and adjusted settings.

In recent years, PRP therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma) has become one of the most talked-about treatments in aesthetic medicine. It is often called “rejuvenation with your own plasma” and promoted as a miracle method to restore youth without surgery. But is that really the case?
