Imagine not having to shave, tweeze,
wax or go through electrolysis again! Intense Pulsed Light
(IPLTM) technology offers a gentle, non-invasive, permanent
solution to unwanted hair on the face, legs, back, bikini
line or any other body area.
Unwanted hair is a problem shared by both men and women.
Some people experience excess hair from the time they
reach puberty; others find it to be a condition that worsens
with age, menopause, or pregnancy. Millions of men and
women spend thousands of dollars each year attempting
to get rid of unwanted hair. Women frequently experience
this condition on the face, especially the lip or eyebrow
areas, at the bikini line, under their arms, or on their
legs.
Men often wish to rid themselves of hair on the back or
chest. They too may have unwanted hair between their eyebrows
or on other parts of their face.
For both men and women, shaving, waxing, chemical depilatories
and other temporary hair removal methods have been known
to cause irritations, folliculitis and in some cases,
scarring.
Depending on its location on the body and an individual's
hair type, hair can grow in thick, bushy patches, or long
thin strands. Hair follicles can be found at different
depths and densities. Until recently, this great variety
in hair types and body locations made permanent hair removal
a significant challenge.
While unwanted or excess hair is primarily a cosmetic
concern, it can be very distressing to those who suffer
its effects. Unwanted hair can be a source of considerable
embarrassment, limiting people's activities and lifestyles.
Frequently
Asked Questions
How does Laser
Light remove hair?
Highly controlled flashes of light are absorbed by hair
follicles beneath the skin. The absorbed light heats the
hair, which damages or destroys the regrowth potential
of the follicle.
What happens during
a treatment?
It begins by trimming away the hair above the skin. You
may be asked to wear dark glasses to protect your eyes
from the bright light.
What does the Intense
Pulsed Laser Light treatment feel like?
Each pulse of light feels like a mild sting, similar to
the snap of a rubber band. No anesthesia is required,
although some patients prefer to utilize a topical anesthetic.
Can all hair be
treated?
Any hair with at least some pigment in it can be treated.
Is Laser Light
safe for all skin types?
Laser procedures effectively treat unwanted hair on all
skin types, including dark-skinned individuals such as
those of Black, Hispanic, Indian, and Asian descent.
Are there side
effects?
Side effects are rare. You may experience some slight
reddening or local swelling, but this typically goes away
within a few hours. Also, skin can become darker or lighter
following treatment, but will generally return to normal
in a few weeks. Limiting sun exposure before and after
each treatment will minimize side effects.
What kind of results
can I expect?
Laser technology has been proven to offer permanent hair
reduction. The number of treatments required depends on
several factors related to your specific kind of hair
and skin. We will design a program to meet your particular
needs.
What is the cost?
Consultations are free and are utilized to help you become
more familiar with the procedures. Price varies according
to the area treated.
