Waxing, plucking, shaving, and threading are all effective hair removal methods, but they have one thing in common: They are short-lived. You can achieve the long-lasting, smooth, hair-free look you desire thanks to laser hair removal treatments. Learn more about laser hair removal treatments performed at Harbour Laser.
What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a noninvasive treatment that uses a laser to reduce and eliminate hair growth in multiple body areas. It is a very common procedure, allowing concentrated light beams to target hair follicles. The pigment in the follicles absorbs the laser light, destroying the hair.
Candidates for Laser Hair Removal
Candidates for laser hair removal treatments include individuals in overall good health looking to reduce the appearance of unwanted hair on their faces, legs, arms, abdomen, or bikini area. The best way to determine your candidacy is through a private consultation with one of our team members at Harbour Laser.
Laser Hair Removal Procedure
Your laser hair removal treatment will begin with your laser technician trimming the hair to a length just a few millimeters above the skin surface. After cutting the hair, a topical numbing cream will be applied to the skin to reduce discomfort during your treatment. The laser machine will then be carefully adjusted to the best settings for your skin and treatment goals. The laser technician will then meticulously graze the pulses of light over your desired treatment region for several minutes.
Multiple sessions are required to meet your desired results because the hair grows in different phases. You must wait four to six weeks between each appointment.
Laser Hair Removal Results and Recovery
After your laser hair removal, the treated area may feel like a sunburn for a few days. You can apply cooling moisturizers to the area. It can take up to a month for the hair to fall out.
