Laser Hair Removal is a medical procedure that targets hair follicles with laser light to remove hair from your body. Multiple (up to 12) sessions of laser hair removal are required for each target area and results are seen in days to weeks. Laser hair removal is not technically permanent but results typically last several months to years. Hair that does eventually grow back will be sparser, lighter, and finer in texture. Laser Hair Removal is often a cost-effective treatment for long-term control of excess or unwanted hair.

The Ins-and-Outs of Laser Hair Removal
A topical numbing cream is applied prior to beginning the laser treatment. Adjustments are made based on the target area and your skin type and tone. Depending on the size of the area, your session will take several minutes for smaller areas to over an hour for the largest area (like a full back).
During the procedure, topical cooling treatments may be applied to the skin. Some clients experience mild discomfort (comparable to a quick pinch) and feel the heat from the laser. The cooling and numbing applications assist with client comfort.
After the procedure, some clients have additional discomfort similar to a mild sunburn, notice their skin is more sensitive than usual, or have redness, swelling, or changes in pigmentation at the treatment site. These effects usually dissipate a few hours after treatment.
The results of laser hair removal are smoother, hairless skin and the freedom and confidence that comes with not having to worry about ingrown hairs and hair removal.
