Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

Lasers are useful for removing unwanted hair from the face, leg, chin, back, arm,
underarm, bikini line, and other areas. Benefits of laser hair removal include the
following:

Precision

Lasers can selectively target dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged.

Speed

Each pulse of the laser takes a fraction of a second and can treat many Each pulse of the laser takes a fraction of a second and can treat many hairs at the same time. The laser can treat an area approximately the size of a quarter every second. Small areas such as the upper lip can be treated in less than a minute, and large areas, such as the back or legs, may take up to an hour.

Predictability

Most patients have permanent hair loss after an average of six to eight sessions.

What Is Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal has become the most popular way to rid oneself of unwanted body hair safely, effectively and permanently. The use of state-of-the-art laser technology can effectively disable active growth in deeper layers and requires multiple treatments (6-8) depending on how fast you want results. But, it’s often more effective than other methods:
x Electrolysis requires appointments every week for weeks at a time
x Waxing can leave skin burned and irritated by hot instruments near your sensitive areas
x Shaving causes ingrown hairs due to clogged pores

What to Expect During Laser Hair Removal

During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the tube-shaped sacs within the skin (hair follicles) that produce hairs. This damage inhibits and destroys future hair growth. Multiple laser hair removal treatments are needed for hair removal, and maintenance treatments might be needed as well if future hairs grow. Laser hair removal is most effective for people who have dark hair, but it can be successfully used on all skin types.

Before the Laser Hair Removal Treatment

We ask that you arrive on time for your appointment. We also ask that you shave whatever possible yourself. Shaving the full bikini area may be tough for some, but we encourage you to try. Patients are typically much more comfortable shaving themselves than when we have to shave them. We also ask that you are freshly showered or bathed with completely clean skin, without lotions, creams or fragrances of any kind before coming in. Following a treatment you may feel a little sensitive, but generally people just feel very clean and sleek. More good news is you don’t need to wait for hair to grow in like waxing, you can continue shaving any hair you see (it will be reduced immediately).

During the Procedure

Each person receiving a laser treatment will be wearing protective eye wear. You will still be able to see a flash of light, but your eyes will be completely covered. The laser technicians wear a type of eye wear, as well. During the treatment, all areas of the body that will not be lasered will be covered with clothing. Only the areas to receive laser treatment will be exposed. Much like massage, we use modesty towels to cover any area adjacent to the area being treated. We are always mindful of your comfort and your peace of mind. There won’t be any surprises as we will let you know ahead of time what to expect.

After the Procedure

You might notice redness and swelling for the first few hours after laser hair removal. To reduce any discomfort, apply ice to the treated area. If you have a skin reaction immediately after laser hair removal, the medical assistant might apply a steroid cream to the affected area.  After laser hair removal and between scheduled treatments, avoid sunlight and don’t use a tanning bed for six weeks or as directed by your doctor. Use a broad-spectrum SPF30 sunscreen daily.

Results

Hairs do not fall out immediately, but you will shed them over a period of days to weeks. This may look like continued hair growth. The repeated treatments of 6-8 sessions are usually necessary because hair growth and loss naturally occur in a cycle, and laser treatment works best with hair follicles in the new-growth stage. Our patients love their results and you will too!
