Laser Hair Reduction
Laser Hair Reduction / Removal with LightSheer™
In the past, the usual remedies for unwanted hair were plucking, shaving, waxing, or chemical depilatories. Some are painful, messy, and all are temporary. It
typically takes months of regular visits - even for small areas, like the upper lip. Now there is a more effective solution, the new LightSheer™ Diode
Laser, specially designed to remove unwanted hair faster, with less discomfort, and more reliability than other methods. We offer this state-of-the-art technology
in addition to hair removal via the IPL.
What can you expect?
The length of a laser session may be a few minutes to an hour or more, depending on the size of the area being treated. Because the laser tends to treat hair
follicles that are in an active growth phase, multiple treatments will be required to disable hair follicles that subsequently enter this growth phase.
Laser treatment itself may cause a slight tingling sensation. Most patients tolerate the procedure well, but because some areas of the body are more sensitive than others, topical anesthesia can be applied which reduces the discomfort.
The appearance of the treated area immediately after a laser session will vary from patient to patient depending on the extent of treatment and skin type. Immediate after effects, if any are minor. They may include redness and swelling, which disappear in a short time. Most people return to normal activity right away.
