Laser Hair Removal
Tired of having to remember if you shaved before you go to the pool? Are ingrown hairs a regular painful occurrence?
Waxing, tweezing, and shaving can be a thing of the past with 4-10 fast treatments of laser hair removal. This is a practical, affordable treatment that provides permanent hair reduction. Legs, back, chest, underarms, bikini, and face can be treated in fast laser light treatments.
The Procedure
Every 4-8 weeks, our laser technicians will perform a short laser treatment with little to no discomfort. Some say that the pain is similar to a rubber band snap. We currently have two different modalities so that all skin types can be properly treated. Reduction in hair growth can be seen one month after the first treatment.
The Details
Both the IPL and 1064 yag are hair removal lasers that target melanin in the hair bulb to stun and stops its growth. Each individual hair follicle can be in a different hair growth cycle. There are three phases of hair growth: Anagen (active growth phase), Catagen (ends the active phase), and Telogen (The hair is pushed out by the new hair underneath). Laser hair removal is successful on hair follicles in the Anagen phase of hair growth as it proper absorbs the light energy from the laser. Multiple treatments are necessary in order to properly treat all of the follicles.
Like any laser procedure, it is important to choose a technician that is properly trained. Beware of GrouponTM Laser Hair Removal packages as they may seem like a good deal, but actually can cause more harm then good. Here at Physicians Aesthetics, our laser technicians are required to perform hours of training and complete a practical tests prior to any service.
