FAQs
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work
The laser uses concentrated light energy to target the dark pigment associated with unwanted hair. You need multiple sessions because hair grows in different cycles, a series of treatments is typically needed to target hair during their active growth phase. The number of sessions varies depending on the treatment area, hair characteristics, skin type, and individual response.
What Are The Side Effects
Most people will not have any side effects to their laser hair removal treatment, but in rare cases someone might experience blisters, burns, hyperpigmentation, areas of skin that are darker than the surrounding skin or hypopigmentation, areas of skin that are lighter than the surrounding skin.
How Many Laser Hair Removal Sessions Do You Need
In most cases, you need six to twelve treatment sessions performed four to six weeks apart to see great results. Laser hair removal is most successful during the active growth phase of the hair cycle, as the laser targets the pigment in actively growing hair follicles.
How to Prepare for Laser Hair Removal
Please shave the treatment area at least two days before your visit. Don’t apply any deodorant, lotions or creams on the day of your treatment.
Is Laser Hair Removal Permanent
Laser hair removal is 80-85% hair reduction, results generally last for several months to several years based on your body’s ability to reproduce hair. Once you begin to see regrowth, you’ll likely notice the hair is finer and thinner than it was before treatment. Your full growth never comes back but some areas may require touch ups after a few years.
Who Can Get This Treatment
The GentleMax Pro laser offers different treatment options that allow it to be customized for a wide range of skin types and tones after an individual consultation.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
You may feel a heat sensation, like a small rubber band snap, on your skin when the laser is working. The heat sensation goes away in a few minutes post treatment.
What to Expect After Your Treatment
You might notice redness for the first few minutes after laser hair removal. To reduce any discomfort, apply ice to the treated area. If you have a reaction immediately after laser hair removal, a 1% OTC steroid cream can be applied to the affected area. To reduce any discomfort, stay out of the sun and apply sunscreen regularly.
