Laser hair removal is relatively painless, is safe for sensitive areas, and typically takes less than an hour to perform. Large areas, such as the back and legs, will take longer than smaller areas, but advanced lasers provide faster treatment. Selected lasers will precisely target the hair follicles.
Following a laser hair removal session, staying out of the sun is essential, as treated skin will be sensitive to UV rays. To avoid sun damage to the area, patients should stay indoors as much as possible and protect the skin with strong sunscreen and protective clothing. Laser hair removal is most popular in nonsummer months since you should not be tan when having it done.
Unlike shaving and waxing, which remove existing hair, laser energy targets the underlying hair follicles and destroys them to stop regrowth. We utilize the most advanced lasers that destroy hair follicles without damaging surrounding tissue, even if the skin is dark.
Hair grows in cycles, so multiple laser treatments are needed to achieve full results. Each treatment is spaced apart to target the hair follicle at the correct time during the growth cycle. Your dermatology professional will let you know when you should come for treatments. Approximately six to ten treatment sessions are needed for optimal results.
