Laser hair removal is well-suited for removing excess hair from the face, including the chin. It uses low-intensity laser light that is attracted to the pigment in the hair, which it then destroys at its very root. The procedure can remove hundreds of hairs at a time, unlike electrolysis.
Laser Hair Removal is an alternative to the irritating side effects of shaving. This procedure uses laser light beams to target the hair follicle to reduce hair growth in that area. A series of treatments will be required at 4–8 week intervals, during which you won’t have to worry about waxing, shaving, or plucking.
How Does It Work?
Laser Hair Removal is an alternative to the irritating side effects of shaving. This procedure uses the Candella Gentle Max Pro laser to target the hair follicle to reduce hair growth in that area. Laser hair removal works by eliminating the production of hair with laser energy. The laser light is absorbed by hair follicles and destroys the pigment. It does this without damaging the skin and surrounding tissue. A series of treatments will be required at 4-8 week intervals, during which you won’t have to worry about waxing, shaving, or plucking. The most common areas for laser hair removal are lip, chin, underarms, bikini area, and legs.
Our clients notice a difference after just one treatment. Most clients need 7-10 treatments total.
Clients will need to shave 1-2 days prior to their treatment. Each area takes approximately 20 minutes.
Who Is It Ideal For?
Laser hair removal is for all skin types 1-6. Patients with unwanted hair, irritating ingrown hairs, and those who spend a lot of time and money on waxing or shaving hair can usually benefit from laser hair removal. It used to be only available for those with dark hair, light skin, and no tan, but now laser hair removal can treat all skin types.
This is ideal for everyone except someone who is taking testosterone or is pregnant.
