Shaving and wax hair removal are time-consuming methods and often lead to ingrown hairs, burns, cuts, razor bumps, acne, and rashes. You can get rid of all the hassle of removing unwanted hair with laser hair removal. Here is what you need to know.
Candidates for Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is permanent and fast if you are tired of shaving and using wax products. It is also the least invasive method for hairless skin. If you have unwanted hair in any of the following areas, you may be a candidate for laser hair removal:
- Legs
- Abdomen and back
- Pubic area
- Chin
- Lip
- Chest
- Arms
You can have laser hair removal on any area of the body except your scalp and the area right around your eyes. Laser hair removal works on all skin types and tones and on men and women.
How Laser Hair Removal Works
When we do laser hair removal, we use a laser light that focuses on individual hairs. The heat from the light damages the follicle's base, preventing or significantly delaying hair growth. You can get rid of most hair in one treatment. However, due to the cyclical nature of hair growth, additional rounds of laser hair removal may be required to remove all hair in any treated area. Each session requires very little downtime and is so quick it can be done on your lunch break.
While laser hair removal is not painful, it might be a little uncomfortable at first for some people. We can numb the area being treated to help with the uncomfortable feeling.
