What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Come and get summer ready with us here at Vogue Lashes & Spa with our Laser Hair Removal Services! We know the word ‘laser’ may sound intimidating but it’s a quick and easy service that produces wonderful results! Also, please note this service is noninvasive, meaning it doesn’t require any cuts in the skin. Laser hair removal is essentially the procedure to remove unwanted body hair by a process called photothermolysis. Clients can get laser hair removal pretty much anywhere, but the most common areas are:
- Face (chin, upper lip, cheeks)
- Underarms
- Arms
- Legs
- Bikini area, or any area that grows pubic hair
How Does The Process Work?
As previously mentioned, laser hair removal uses the process of selective photothermolysis to remove unwanted hair. The goal of this technique is to heat the targeted tissue with a laser to destroy it without damaging any surrounding tissue. In more depth, a laser emits a light that is then absorbed by the melanin found in hair. Then, the light energy is converted to heat which ultimately damages the hair follicles. Laser hair removal successfully delays future hair growth but may require maintenance treatments as time goes on. Be sure to check out the packages we offer regarding removal!
How Do I Prepare For This Procedure?
Before laser hair removal, make sure you schedule a consultation with us to determine if this is the best procedure for you. At this consultation you will fill out forms regarding your medical history, including any medication use, history of any skin disorders, and any past hair removal services you may have had. Moreover, we’ll go over the risks, benefits, and goals you have. We’ll even snap a before photo to document the process!
What To Expect:
As stated before, laser hair removal will require maintenance appointments as time goes on. Your licensed technician will go over if/ when you should schedule these appointments. The interval between such treatments will depend on the area of skin. In terms of pain, you’ll only experience a slight pin- prick with the help of an anesthetic cream beforehand.
Results:
After your treatment(s), your hair will begin to shed over a period of days to weeks. Most people experience hair removal that will last months or even years. When hair begins to regrow, it will appear finer and lighter in color. Ditch the razors and book your laser today!
