LONG-TERM RESULTS
What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses concentrated light beams to eliminate unwanted hair. The process involves the emission of laser light, which is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicles. By targeting the pigment, the laser generates heat that damages the follicles, ultimately inhibiting future hair growth.
The treatment typically requires several sessions to achieve optimal results, as hair grows in different phases, and lasers are most effective during the active growth stage (anagen phase). The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and can be performed on various body areas, making it a popular choice for those seeking long-lasting hair reduction.
SAY GOODBYE TO RAZORS & WAXING
Is Laser Hair Removal Right For Me?
Determining if laser hair removal is suitable for you involves considering several factors.
While laser hair removal is effective for many individuals, it is important to note that it may not yield satisfactory results on white or light hair colours. The treatment relies on the contrast between the pigment in the hair and the surrounding skin, which is why darker hair typically responds better. White, grey, or very light blonde hair has little to no pigment for the laser to target, often resulting in ineffective hair reduction. For those with light hair, alternative hair removal methods may be more suitable.
It’s also essential to assess your hair growth patterns; individuals seeking to manage excessive hair growth may benefit significantly from this treatment.
If you have specific skin conditions or are currently on medications that increase sensitivity, discussing these with your provider during your consultation is crucial.
A comprehensive evaluation will help determine if laser hair removal aligns with your goals.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Laser Hair Removal Procedure
The Laser Hair Removal procedure is a non-invasive treatment that uses laser energy to target and eliminate unwanted hair. As you prepare for the procedure, here’s what you can expect:
The session typically begins with a brief consultation to discuss your concerns and expectations. Once ready, your provider will use the hair removal device to target the hair follicles in the designated area.
You may experience a sensation similar to a rubber band snapping against your skin, but the Zimmer Chiller will help alleviate discomfort by blowing cold air onto the area.
The duration of the treatment will depend on the size of the area being treated, and overall, most sessions are quick.
After the procedure, you will receive tailored aftercare instructions to promote healing and enhance results.
Remember, every individual’s experience with the Laser Hair Removal procedure may vary slightly based on their unique condition and the specific protocol followed.
How to prepare for your appointment
- Consultation: Schedule a consultation to discuss your skin and hair type, as well as your expectations for the treatment.
- Shave the Area: Shave the treatment area 24-48 hours before your appointment to allow the laser to target the hair follicles effectively.
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Refrain from sunbathing or using tanning beds for at least two weeks prior to your session to reduce the risk of skin irritation.
- Skip Certain Products: Avoid exfoliating scrubs, retinol, and other irritating skincare products for a week leading up to your appointment.
- Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water in the days before your session to help keep your skin in optimal condition.
- Avoid Blood Thinners: Avoid blood thinners, including alcohol and certain medications, 24 hours prior to the treatment to minimize the risk of bruising.
- Wear Comfortable Clothing: Dress in loose, comfortable clothing to allow easy access to the treatment area and to avoid irritation post-procedure.
What to expect after treatment
- Redness and Swelling: It’s common to experience mild redness and swelling in the treated area, similar to a sunburn, which usually subsides within a few hours to a few days.
- Sensitivity: The skin may feel sensitive or tender following the treatment, so it's advisable to avoid tight clothing or friction on the area for a short period.
- Hair Shedding: You may notice hair shedding from the treated follicles in the days following your session, which is a normal part of the hair removal process.
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect the treated skin from sun exposure for at least two weeks to reduce the risk of pigmentation changes or irritation.
- Moisturize: Use a gentle moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated and soothe any lingering sensitivity.
- Follow-Up Care: Adhere to any post-treatment instructions given by your provider, including when to schedule your next session for optimal results.
- No Hot Baths or Saunas: Avoid hot baths, saunas, or strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours to minimize irritation.
