What Is Lara Secret? An Easy-to-Understand Explanation of Its Expected Effects, Benefits, and Drawbacks
After engaging in general obstetrics and gynecology practice, including infertility treatment, perinatal care, and other insured treatments, I decided to shift my career to free practice and gynecological aesthetics, with the hope of “supporting women to enjoy their life as a woman” after my own experience fighting against illness. Today, while still being involved in insured medical care as an obstetrician/gynecologist, I am facing women's health issues based on medical evidence through "real femtec" such as gynecologic plastic surgery, Vaginal Growth® injections, and vaginal hyaluronic acid injections, based on my deep anatomical knowledge and skills. We are a leading provider of gynecological services in Japan.
She is also committed to social activities related to the dissemination of sex education, HPV vaccine awareness, and the improvement of women's quality of life. He is also actively involved in educating the public about medical knowledge, such as writing Chapter 7, "Vaginal Hyaluronic Acid Injection," in his specialty book, "The Basics of Cosmetic Surgery," which is the first book he reads when he becomes a cosmetic surgeon.
Perhaps some of you are thinking, “I’m concerned about darkening in my intimate area, but I’m worried that exfoliation might be too harsh.” Lara Secret is a body-specific exfoliator designed to address dead skin cells and pigmentation while being gentle on the skin.
At BIANCA CLINIC, we offer treatments not only for the back but also for the intimate area. In this article, we’ll provide an easy-to-understand explanation from a doctor’s perspective on how Lara Secret works, its ingredients, the expected results, and its pros and cons.
What kind of treatment is Lara Secret?
Lala Secret is a body-specific peel that does not primarily aim to exfoliate dead skin cells; instead, it addresses issues such as pigmentation, dark spots, and thickened skin while being gentle on the skin.
"No-Rinse" Body Scrub
LHALA Secret is a body peel specifically designed to address hyperpigmentation.
When people hear the term “peeling,” some may imagine a process that uses chemicals to remove dead skin cells. At Lara Secret, however, we’ve designed our products to gently care for the skin while delivering beneficial ingredients—a key feature of our approach is that it does not involve peeling.
In addition to LHA, which is also used in Lala Peel, it combines ingredients such as QPT™, considered a fifth-generation technology. It is used not only to treat dark spots and hyperpigmentation on the body but also to care for skin concerns such as thickened keratin and acne.
Ingredients and technologies that make up Lara Secret, such as LHA, HP-Sol™, and QPT™
Lala Secret incorporates ingredients such as LHA, HP-Sol™, lipids, and QPT™.
LHA (Lipohydroxy Acid / Capryoyl Salicylic Acid)
An ingredient developed exclusively by L'Oréal that is also used in Lala Peel.
Designed to gently care for the skin while gradually penetrating the stratum corneum, it helps improve skin concerns such as dark spots, thickened skin, and roughness.
HP-Sol™
A patented ingredient described as a complex of naturally fermented alkaline substances.
Formulated to protect the skin's surface while balancing the skin's environment, it also supports the function of fibroblasts, which produce collagen and elastin.
Lipids
It is a phospholipid that has properties similar to those of the intercellular lipids found in the stratum corneum.
It supports the function of the stratum corneum until damaged skin returns to its natural state.
QPT™ (Ulva) Linza Carbon Quantum Dot Photothermal Therapy)
It is designed to help balance sebum levels and prevent skin irritation.
Another key feature is its UV protection effect, achieved through patented technology that utilizes carbon quantum dots (CQD) derived from Usuba Aonori. Furthermore, the product is designed to be used in combination with laser treatments and other procedures that utilize light, heat, and electricity.
In addition, Lara Secret contains ingredients such as Usuba Aonori, gold, Lactobacillus, and hemp seed, all of which are designed to help condition the skin.
As you can see, Lara Secret is not just a peel that uses LHA to target dead skin cells. In addition to exfoliation, it combines ingredients that protect and condition the skin with QPT™ technology to provide a comprehensive treatment designed to improve the skin’s condition on the body and in the intimate area.
Treatments are available not only for the back but also for the intimate areas
Lala Secret is a body peel, and at Bianca Clinic, we offer treatments for the back and intimate areas (VIO).
The vulva, in particular, is an area that is susceptible to various factors, such as friction from underwear and sanitary pads, as well as dryness. Many women are concerned about darkening in this area but find it difficult to discuss the issue with others.
Precisely because these are sensitive areas, it is important not to decide on a treatment method based solely on your own judgment, but rather to have a doctor assess the condition of your skin and your concerns before considering any treatment.
What kind of results can I expect from Lara Secret?
At Lara Secret, in addition to addressing pigmentation, darkening, thickened skin, and acne on the body and in the intimate areas, you can expect results that improve your skin's smoothness and elasticity.
Lala Secret is primarily expected to address the following skin concerns:
- Care for Pigmentation and Dark Spots
- Care for Dead Skin Cells and Thickened Skin
- Skincare for Skin Prone to Body Acne
- Improves skin smoothness and elasticity
- Restores balance to skin whose condition has been disrupted by dryness or other factors
Treating Dark Spots and Hyperpigmentation
Lala Secret is a treatment designed to address skin discoloration and dark spots on the body.
It can be used not only on the back but also on pigmentation in sensitive areas. It works to improve skin condition while exfoliating dead skin cells, helping to achieve brighter, smoother skin.
However, the causes and severity of pigmentation vary from person to person. Since the results of the treatment and the number of sessions required also vary from person to person, it is essential to assess the condition of the skin during a consultation before determining a treatment plan.
For bodies with concerns about thickened skin or acne
By exfoliating dead skin cells, you can address skin that has become thick and rough, as well as body areas prone to acne.
Lala Secret isn't just a peel designed solely to remove dead skin cells; it's formulated with ingredients that help condition the skin. As a result, it could be a good option even for those who have been concerned about the irritation caused by peels.
In addition, at Bianca Clinic, depending on your skin condition and concerns, we may recommend combining medical hair removal, Mesona J, Target Cool, and other treatments for your back. A doctor will determine whether combining these treatments is appropriate after conducting an examination.
What are the pros and cons of Lara Secret?
One of the benefits of Lara Secret is that it allows you to care for your body and intimate areas while minimizing irritation. However, there are a few precautions to keep in mind regarding how you spend your time after the treatment.
Benefits of Lara Secret
- Designed with care to minimize skin irritation and strain
- Can be used on sensitive areas
- Treats pigmentation and dead skin cells at the same time
- It also helps improve skin elasticity and overall condition
One of the key features of Lara Secret is that it is a peel that is less likely to cause peeling of the skin. Even if you’ve had concerns about irritation—such as a stinging sensation—with traditional peels, you can consider this as a new option in consultation with your doctor.
Another key feature is that it is designed for body care rather than facial care, and can be used on sensitive areas such as the VIO region.
Disadvantages and Precautions of Lara Secret
- Redness, itching, and a stinging sensation may occur.
- Temporary dryness or a sensation of irritation may occur.
- After the treatment, you should avoid friction and irritation.
Even with treatments designed to minimize irritation, skin problems can still occur.
After your treatment, it’s important to avoid friction and irritation and to moisturize properly. Until the day after your treatment, avoid using body wash or irritating skincare products on the treated area.
If the treatment is performed on the intimate area, please refrain from sexual intercourse, oral sex, cycling, or any other activities that may cause irritation or friction to the treated area on the day of the treatment. For one week after the treatment, please take precautions appropriate for the treated area, such as avoiding saunas, swimming, and treatments that involve exfoliation or skin-lightening.
If you experience any concerning symptoms, such as redness, itching, or a strong burning sensation, do not try to diagnose yourself; please consult a doctor.
Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to some common questions people have when considering Lara Secret—such as how it differs from Lara Peel, the number of sessions, the intervals between treatments, downtime, and post-treatment care.
Q. What is the difference between Lara Secret and Lara Peel?
A. Both are peels that use LHA, but Lara Secret is designed to address pigmentation on the body and utilizes QPT™ technology. It can be used on the intimate area and is considered a 5th-generation peel, while Lara Peel is considered a 4th-generation peel.
Q. Does Lara Secret work even after just one use?
A. While some people notice a difference after just one treatment, the results vary from person to person. Depending on the condition of the dark spots or pigmentation, you may need to consider ongoing treatments, so please consult your doctor regarding the number of sessions required.
Q. How often do you take it?
A. If you receive treatments on a regular basis, a general guideline is to space them about 2 to 4 weeks apart, depending on your skin condition. The recommended number of sessions is 5 to 10 for the back and 3 to 6 for the genital area, though this may vary depending on your condition and the specific area being treated.
Q. Is there any downtime?
A. Although this treatment is not intended to cause peeling, it may result in redness, itching, a stinging sensation, temporary dryness, or a feeling of irritation. Allergic reactions such as rashes or swelling may occur, and in rare cases, contact dermatitis may develop.
Q. What kind of aftercare is needed following the treatment?
A. After the treatment, it is important to moisturize the skin and avoid friction and irritation as much as possible. We advise patients to wash the treated area with water only until the day after the treatment and to refrain from using harsh skincare products.
