Laser Hair Removal: Permanently Remove Unwanted Body Hair

August 16, 2022 by A Younger You

Most people are familiar with the struggle of maintaining smooth, hair-free skin. You have probably spent many hours shaving, waxing, or applying hair removal creams to keep your body hair-free. This adds up to a lot of money and time spent over the years.

With laser hair removal treatments, you won't have to worry about these methods anymore. Our laser hair removal procedure removes unwanted body hair so you can enjoy soft, smooth skin.

How Laser Hair Removal Works

Lasers generate pulses of energy to remove unwanted body hair. The laser is attracted to the dark hair on your body, leaving the rest of your skin untouched. These pulses of energy interfere with your hair follicles, preventing them from growing new hair.

It usually takes a few sessions before your body stops growing hair completely. Laser energy eventually blocks off your hair follicles, preventing any further body hair growth. This is what makes laser hair removal treatments effective and long-lasting. You won't have to worry about shaving or other temporary hair removal methods again.

Repeated Treatment Sessions

To ensure that your hair removal is long-lasting, you will need multiple laser hair removal sessions. For three weeks after each session, your body hair will start to fall out. This is normal and a sign that the laser hair removal procedure is working.

The number of sessions you will need depends on your hair type, the health of your hair follicles, and your body's response to the laser.

We will personalize your treatment plan when you come in for a consultation. Each patient receives a custom plan to effectively remove all unwanted body hair. In general, most patients need between three and seven laser hair removal treatments to see the best results.

What to Expect During the Laser Hair Removal Procedure

You might be wondering what laser hair removal treatments feel like. This is a common question we get about the procedure. Laser hair removal can be compared to the feeling of a rubber band lightly snapping against your skin. These feelings are typically well-tolerated by patients, and the results are well worth it.

The laser does not damage the surrounding skin. This means only your hair follicles will be impacted by the laser hair removal procedure. Most patients report that they were comfortable and relaxed during their treatment sessions.

You can return to normal daily tasks and activities with no restrictions immediately after your laser hair removal procedure. There is no downtime required after this treatment.

Laser Hair Removal Treatment Areas

Which parts of your body can benefit from this amazing hair removal procedure? The answer is almost all of them! Any common areas where people typically experience unwanted body hair can be treated using laser hair removal. During your individualized consultation, we will discuss your treatment plan and decide on the areas you want to treat.

Legs

Many patients have had to shave their legs for years to feel comfortable wearing shorts, dresses, and skirts. With laser hair removal, this hassle no longer has to be a part of your life. You can show off your legs year-round with your new smooth, hair-free skin. Summertime clothing has never been so easy to rock!

Bikini Line

Women who like to keep their bikini lines trim and smooth will benefit from laser hair removal. Your bikini line is one of the fastest areas to treat with laser hair removal. You don't have to be frustrated by unwanted bikini line hair and stubble anymore. Enjoy the beach and swimming pool again with laser hair removal.

Arms

Dark, unwanted hair on your arms can get in the way of the smooth, hair-free look that you want. Shaving your arms could cause hair to grow back dark and thick, defeating the purpose of hair removal.

If you feel uncomfortable wearing short sleeves, laser hair removal on your arms can help. The laser destroys unwanted arm hair to give you a smooth complexion and eliminate pesky dark arm hairs.

Face

Unwanted facial hair can be frustrating to deal with. Laser hair removal gets rid of facial hair to give you a clearer, smoother complexion on your face. For female patients especially, laser hair removal for the face can be life-changing. You no longer have to shave or wax your face or struggle with makeup application.

Bathing Suit Areas

Private areas for men and women tend to grow thick, coarse hair. If you are tired of waxing and shaving the areas covered by your bathing suit, get laser hair removal. This procedure will get rid of unwanted hair down there so you can enjoy smooth, radiant skin.

These can be the most difficult areas to shave, so the laser hair removal procedure can produce great time-saving benefits.

Back

Men tend to struggle with thick, long back hairs, and this area is nearly impossible to shave. If you want to permanently get rid of unwanted back hair, laser hair removal is the best option for you. You don't have to worry about the “caveman look” associated with thick back hair. Consider laser hair removal for your unwanted back hair.
