What is Laser Hair Removal and how does it work?

Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses a laser to remove unwanted hair. During a laser hair removal treatment, the laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair. The light energy is then converted to heat, damaging the hair follicles within the skin, thus preventing or delaying future hair growth.

While Laser Hair Removal does not completely get rid of hair, it does provide a 50-95% reduction of new hair, with the new hair that grows being finer and easier to manage.

What are the benefits to Laser Hair Removal?

  1. Laser hair removal treatments are much more quick than you might expect. Smaller areas like the underarms or upper lip will take about 10-15 minutes, areas like the full face or bikini area can take about 20-30 minutes, and larger areas like full legs can take up tp 2 hours. The larger the area, the more time the treatment will take, but you don’t have to expect to be in the spa all day.

  2. You’ll save more money in the long run. By getting laser hair removal treatments done, you eliminate the need for endless amounts of shaving cream, razors, or waxing appointments. Laser hair removal is financially smarter, and will give you a longer lasting result.

  3. Laser hair removal can prevent ingrown hairs. It’s one of the best solutions for those that find themselves suffering from ingrown hairs and don’t want to risk having it removed. Laser hair removal is also a good option for people who sensitive skin and have skin irritation after shaving or waxing.

  4. Unlike with waxing, you can shave in between your LHR treatments. You don’t have to worry about waiting to grow your hair out for your next waxing appointment. With LHR, you can shave as much as you want in between each session.

How should you prepare for a Laser Hair Removal treatment?

Before booking for a LHR treatment, it’s important to speak with your doctor to ensure you’re a good candidate for the treatment. You should also limit waxing, plucking, tweezing, or electrolysis for at least a month before your LHR treatment because the roots of the hair are temporarily removed when you have them waxed or plucked, and the laser targets this area. We would also recommend shaving the area you’ll be getting treated before you come in for your appointment to see best results. outside.
