LASER HAIR REMOVAL
SAY GOODBYE TO SHAVING & RAZOR BURN.
Laser hair removal is one of the most commonly done cosmetic procedures in the U.S. It uses beams of highly concentrated light (laser) to destroy hair follicles. Laser can be used to remove unwanted hair on many parts of the body including but not limited to legs, arms, chest, bikini and back.
How many treatments should I expect to need?
It may take up to 3 treatments to see visible results due to hair growth cycles.
Duration of hair reduction results varies by person. Hair that does grow back will be finer, lighter, and less coarse. 6-8 treatments typically needed for optimal, lasting results.
What does the healing process look like?
After your treatment, a sun-burn like effect (redness, warmth, mild inflammation, and/or mild swelling) is normal at treatment site for 1-5 days. Hair destroyed during treatment will gradually work up to the surface and shed away. This may appear as normal growth until shedding occurs.
