Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that uses concentrated light beams (lasers) to target and damage hair follicles, preventing future hair growth. The treatment is precise, effective, and typically used for areas, head to toe.
The process involves a device that emits a laser light which is absorbed by the melanin in the hair. The light energy is converted into heat, which damages the hair follicle and inhibits future hair growth. Laser hair removal is a reliable, effective, and relatively painless way to permanently reduce or eliminate unwanted hair. With advancements in technology, it has become suitable for a wider range of skin and hair types. It is important to consult with one of our professionals to determine if laser hair removal is the right choice for your skin type and hair color.
Before the treatment, the area to be treated is cleaned, and the technician may apply a cooling gel to protect the skin and minimize discomfort. The technician uses a handheld laser device to direct pulses of light onto the treatment area.
The procedure is most effective on dark, coarse hair, as the contrast between the hair and skin allows the laser to target the hair follicle more easily.
It is recommended to complete a series of 6 treatments, each treatment is completed 4-6 weeks apart to target hairs in different growth stages. This is because hair grows in cycles, and the laser is most effective during the anagen (growth) phase. Once a series of treatments is completed, many individuals experience permanent hair reduction, with only occasional touch-ups needed.
Clients are asked to shave the area beforehand to ensure the laser targets the hair follicle more effectively, rather than the surface hair. After the procedure, patients may experience some redness or swelling in the treated area, similar to a mild sunburn. This usually subsides within a few hours to a couple of days. It’s important to avoid sun exposure for a few weeks after treatment to prevent pigmentation changes in the skin.
The cost of laser hair removal can vary depending on the size of the treatment area and the number of sessions required.
