Laser Hair Removal Q & A.

 

Unfortunately, traditional hair removal routines can be tedious, painful and expensive over time.  Shaving may last a day, waxing a couple of weeks, but none of them last forever - and therein lies the true beauty of laser hair removal.  

 

• For the entire body 

• For all Skin Types, incluing tanned skin

• Cost effective

• Simple Treatment

 

How does it work? 

 

To eliminate hair, the laser emits gentle pulses of energy that pass through the skin to the hair follicle.  This energy is then absorbed into the hair follicle to sdestroy it so that hair can never grow there again.

 

Am I a viable candidate for laser hair removal?

 

Laser hair removal can be applied to all areas of the body and on all types of skin (even tanned or dark skin).

 

Does it hurt?

 

The treatment causes only minimal discomfort.

Patients often say it feels similar to the snap of a rubber band.  Slight redness or localized swelling can occasionally occur, but this usually subsides within the first 24 hours after treatment. 

 

How many treatments are required?

 

Typically paitents will see results in 4-6 treatments, though this number will vary based upon skin tone, hair color and several other factors.  Your doctor or practitioner will talk to you about variables that may affect your individual results.
