Laser Hair Removal

Ladies and Gentleman, Listen up!

Are you sick of shaving those annoying hard to reach places on your body? Are you fed up with those nicks and razor burn rashes caused by shaving? Are you tired of racing to remove those unwanted hairs before a swim, trip, workout or event? And guys, this ones for you, are you sick of asking friends and family to shave your back?!

I bet you are!

A laser hair removal procedure may be an option you’d like to explore if you are tired of shaving, tweezing, or waxing to get rid of unwanted hair.

Before undergoing laser hair removal, it is important that you investigate the credentials of the doctor or technician who will be doing the treatment. At Avante Laser & Medispa, you can rest assured that we are experts in this delicate procedure.

Sample treatment areas include: Upper lip, chin, abs, face, neck, arms, legs, underarms, bikini line, back, chest, shoulders, and last but not least, buttocks.

Laser Hair Removal Q & A

How Does It Work?

Prior to your treatments, it’s important that you don’t wax, pluck, or have electrolysis for 4 to 6 weeks. It is totally ok to shave.  Our expert med spa staff will adjust the laser equipment to your specific hair color, target zone, and hair thickness. Our FDA cleared Laser will use an intense, pulsating beam of laser light to target individual hair follicles, destroying them to inhibit future hair growth. Afterward, we will apply ice packs and anti-inflammatory ointments to ease any temporary discomfort or mild redness that may occur.

Results

For a couple of days following treatment, treated areas may look and feel slightly sunburned. Cold compresses and gentle moisturizers will ease any discomfort and help the skin to heal. Over the next month, treated hairs will fall out. Be sure to use quality sunscreen for the month after treatment (and just in general!) to prevent temporary changes in the color of treated skin. Usually, 4 to 6 sessions are required for maximum hair reduction in the treated areas.

For Laser Hair Removal

Frequently Asked Questions

How does laser hair removal work?

Laser hair removal works by directing a beam of highly concentrated light into hair follicles. The pigment in the follicles absorbs the light, which destroys the hair.

Is laser hair removal painful?

Most patients experience some level of discomfort during laser hair removal. However, the sensation is often described as a slight burning or pinching feeling that is well-tolerated. Your technician can use cooling techniques to help minimize any discomfort.

How many sessions are needed for complete hair removal?

A minimum of 6 treatment sessions is recommended for the best aesthetic outcome. Laser hair removal technology can only affect hair in the active phase of growth, so several treatments are needed to affect all your unwanted hair.

Which areas of the body can be treated with laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is effective on almost any part of the body where hair growth is unwanted, including the face, legs, arms, underarms, and bikini area.
