Laser Hair Removal
During your treatment, the gentle handpiece emits a gentle beam of light that passes through the skin to the targeted hair follicle where it is absorbed. The laser energy is transformed into heat, which destroys the hair follicle without damaging the delicate pores or structures of the skin. Most visible hairs vanish immediately. Over a period of 10 to 14 days, the remaining hair disappears.
The procedure can take as little as 10 to 15 minutes depending on the area treated. Facial, underarms, and bikini areas can be completed in a series of 15 minute sessions. Legs, backs and larger areas can take one to two hours.
Laser Hair Removal - FAQ
Q. What Body Areas Can I Get Treated?
A. Any area, except around the eyes. The underarms, legs, back, bikini line, face, neck, etc., can all be treated ... fast!
Q. What Are the Treatment Sessions Like?
A. Quick and easy! After your initial preparation, your treatment provider will move a wand-like handpiece over your skin. The handpiece emits a light that disabled the hair follicles. Most people perceive the light as a gentle "snapping" sensation. Once this is completed, the treatment provider will wipe away any loose hair from your skin, and you're ready to go.
Q. What Should Most People Expect After Treatment?
A. Most people experience some mild redness and tenderness in the treated area shortly after treatment. This does not interfere with normal activities and usually subsides within a day. In some cases, the redness may last longer, but will still be mild and temporary. Your treatment provider will explain other, less likely side effects to you.
Q. Who Performs the Treatment?
A. Treatment is performed by our cosmetologist who is also a trained laser technician.
Q. How many treatments do I need?
A. On average between 5-8 depending on the area.
