Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is a popular cosmetic treatment that uses advanced laser technology to remove unwanted hair from various parts of the body. The treatment works by delivering a concentrated beam of light into the hair follicles, which targets the pigment in the hair and heats it up, eventually damaging the hair follicle and preventing future growth. The laser's energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, which causes it to heat up and be destroyed without harming the surrounding skin. Our technology is precise, safe, and effective for all skin types, with minimal discomfort and downtime.

What To Expect?

During your laser hair removal treatment, our licensed technician will clean the treatment area and apply a cooling gel. They will then use a handheld laser device to target hair follicles, emitting concentrated light that damages them to prevent future growth. Patients may feel slight discomfort, but the procedure is generally tolerable.

LASER HAIR FAQ

Lumenis LightSheer laser hair removal is a safe process that is effective for many people. In your initial consultation, we will talk about your needs, concerns, and goals to help determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure. Ideal candidates for laser hair removal:

  • Have unwanted hair on their face or body
  • Want to stop using other hair removal techniques (shaving, waxing, depilatory creams, or bleaching)
  • Have light skin and dark hair
  • Are in good, overall health
  • Are not pregnant or actively trying to conceive

The cost of Laser Hair Removal will depend on several factors. The number of sessions will influence the final price, as will the severity of the cosmetic issues being addressed.

During the procedure, the medical provider will cleanse and shave the area to smooth out the skin to provide a direct pathway between the root of the hair follicle and the laser. The laser beam will focus on and destroy the hair follicle, preventing it from growing back. Most people initially will require at least 9 treatments over 4-6 weeks to achieve their best results.

Your appointments are spaced out to give the affected areas a chance to heal. This also allows time for follicles in the dormant phase to cycle into the active growth phase so the laser is effective. The state-of-the-art technology we use at Versailles Medical Spa targets only the hair follicle, preserving the skin in the treatment area.

Although this procedure is mostly gentle, the treated areas of your skin may look like it has a mild sunburn and could swell. Usually, these symptoms subside after a couple of hours. If your skin reacts immediately after the procedure, our providers may apply a topical cream to the treated area to help it heal. There is no downtime to laser hair removal. Once your treatment is done, you will be able to return to your daily activities. However, you should refrain from immediate over-sun exposure, swimming, and saunas to allow the area to heal.
