LASER HAIR REMOVAL
Permanent Hair Reduction
Laser hair removal is permanent hair reduction. Most can expect to see a 75% to 95% reduction in hair growth after a series of recommended sessions. Ideal candidates can reach close to 99% reduction.
The laser targets the pigment in hair follicle while preserving the skin. The light energy is converted to heat that targets and destroys the hair follicle.
More cost effective
Laser hair removal may seem expensive at first, but it is ultimately more cost-effective than traditional hair removal methods. Razors and waxing costs add up over time, and the hair always grows back. You may also experience ingrown hairs or razor burns. With laser hair removal, you'll see a significant reduction in ingrown hairs and never have to deal with razor burn or stubble again. It leaves your skin smoother and healthier while addressing excessive hair growth. In contrast, traditional waxing and other methods not only waste time and money but can also cause skin irritation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Before Treatment
In order to achieve the best results we ask that you refrain from self-tanners, tanning beds and sun exposure. Failure to do so may result in scarring, hyper pigmentation and burn. This could lead to the possibility of permanent side effects.
Additionally, we ask that you don’t wax, tweeze, bleach or use depilatory creams 2 weeks prior to treatment. Using these hair removal methods will make the laser ineffective and you will not see the results you are looking for. You may shave as much as you like. This is the only form of hair removal that you can do during treatment and still achieve good results.
We also ask you to inform us if you have been taking antibiotics. We cannot perform treatment until 2 weeks after your last dose. Antibiotics increase your photosensitivity to the laser and put you at risk for side effects.
Before coming in we ask that you shave the area to be treated, with the exception of women having treatment to the face. The area should be cleaned beforehand. Deodorants, lotions and cosmetics should be completely removed before receiving treatment.
Aftercare
Experiencing redness and or bumps immediately after treatment is normal and usually subsides within 2 hours after your session.
Apply aloe Vera gel immediately after treatment. You can reapply as needed.
You should avoid deodorants, cosmetics and any harsh acne products for 24 hours after treatment. Sun exposure, vigorous exercise, hot water or anything that elevates your body temperature should also be avoided. Though, you may exercise before you come in. Treat your skin as gently as possible.
UV sun protection should be applied to exposed areas. Avoid direct sunlight as much as possible for 2 weeks after your treatment.
1 to 2 weeks later you will notice that you will begin to shed hair from the treated area. You should exfoliate the area to help along the shedding process.

How many sessions do I need?
All areas require a minimum of 6 sessions to start. Sessions are generally 4 to 5 weeks apart depending on the area to be treated. Hormonal areas will need additional sessions. How many sessions you require will depend on the amount of hair, hair color, your genetic background and how closely you follow the schedule set by your technician. For complete removal, you will most likely need more than 6 sessions.
Gradual Reduction
In 7-10 days after your laser session, you will notice the hair shedding out. You MUST be patient, remember that it is a GRADUAL treatment . You can ONLY SHAVE BETWEEN THE SESSIONS *no epilating*. In 2-3 weeks, a new hair growth cycle will begin to grow out. When more sessions are completed, the follicle will take longer to shed, and the new hair growth cycle will slow down.
