Frequently Asked Questions
What Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal treatments target and destroy the hair cells responsible for hair growth without damaging the surrounding skin.
How does Laser hair Removal work?
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive technique that uses concentrated laser light to penetrate hair follicles. The laser light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair shaft in the follicle, generating enough heat to damage the follicle and inhibit hair growth.
Laser hair removal only affects hair follicles in the active growth cycle. Multiple sessions are needed to show significant hair reduction. While laser hair removal effectively slows hair growth, it doesn’t guarantee permanent hair removal. Periodic maintenance treatments may be needed.
What to expect during a Laser Hair Removal treatment?
For your comfort, the treatment area should be cleanly shaved within 24 hours of treatment. Avoid excessive sun exposure, and waxing or tweezing at least 6 weeks before laser hair removal.
Before your laser hair removal session, you will be given special goggles to protect your eyes from laser light exposure. A handheld laser device will be placed on your skin and activated so the laser can target the hair follicles. The laser handpiece is cooled to reduce discomfort.
Session time will depend on the area to be treated, your skin’s tolerance to the laser and thickness/amount of hair to be treated.
Am I a candidate for Laser Hair Removal?
Nearly everyone who would like to have permanently reduced hair is a good candidate for laser hair removal. The results of the procedure will depend on the pigmentation of the hair, amount of hair in the area and the patient’s skin type. Those who have blonde or white hair, unfortunately, are not good candidates as they lack the pigment necessary for treatment.
Ideal candidates for Laser Hair Removal in Philadelphia should meet the following requirements:
- Are not pregnant or nursing
