No More Shaving, Tweezing and Waxing
For many men and women, unwanted hair has a very negative impact on self-esteem. Unwanted hair, particularly when on the face, can cause patients a high amount of unease. Women, become tired of repeatedly having to shave areas of their body to remove unwanted underarm hair, bikini line hair, and leg hair. Men can develop frustrating folliculitis.
For decades, treatments such as waxing, tweezing, or electrolysis, have been utilized to temporarily remove unwanted hair. While each of these procedures has its own benefits, none of the aforementioned procedures offers true permanence. Electrolysis, while an accepted procedure for decades, can be painful to some patients, particularly in areas like bikini lines and face.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
The light energy from the laser causes progressive damage to the hair follicles. This can cause miniaturization of the hair follicles or regeneration of tiny hair follicles near the surface of the skin. Both of these features yield modification of the growth process converting thick, dark hairs into fine peach fuzz hairs.
Typically, with each laser treatment, less hair grows back, and it grows back thinner and finer. The FDA has approved Laser Hair Modification for permanent hair reduction. This means that in any given area after a period of time longer than the normal hair growth cycle, we will see a minimum of a 35-50% reduction of terminal growing hairs.
The number of Hair Laser Modification treatments needed is variable from region to region on the body and from patient to patient. After each treatment, there is usually a slight amount of redness in the treatment area. Rarely, some welting can occur in the area. Most patients are able to return to work either that same day or the next.
