Laser hair removal is an effective, permanent hair reduction treatment, which eradicates hair growth by targeting either the root of the hair or the blood flow to the root, depending on your skin tone. Once a hair follicle has been successfully treated, hair will no longer grow from it.
When performed by a qualified laser technician, laser hair removal is safe, comfortable, and can be used to stop hair growth anywhere on the body.
Laser hair removal works by targeting the hair root or blood supply using a concentrated beam of light. This light is absorbed by pigment, damaging the follicle and rendering it incapable of growing hair. This results in long-lasting reduction in the hair growth of the treated area. Laser hair removal results in long-term hair-free skin… in some people, hair never returns (though everyone is different, and results may vary).
Every patient is different, and your laser technician will be able to advise you on the best treatment course for your needs. However, many clients see a significant reduction in hair growth from the first treatment.
Treatments are performed between 4-5 weeks apart to ensure each targets a new cycle of hair growth. Because between 6 to 8 treatments are usually needed for an area to be completely free of hair growth, laser is not the quickest hair removal treatment – but it IS the only one that offers permanent hair reduction.
