Laser hair removal is a safe, and effective process of removing unwanted hair.
Tired of shaving, waxing, and plucking? These methods of hair removal are painful, time consuming, and don’t provide a permanent solution. Laser hair removal is a safe and effective treatment for permanent hair reduction without the discomfort and side effects often seen with other methods. Sessions are quick and easy with minimal post-care required, so you’ll be able to get back to your daily activities while enjoying smoother skin!
Benefits
Aside from the obvious benefit of permanent hair reduction, there are several other benefits of choosing laser hair removal to get rid of unwanted hair. These include:
- Minimal side effects: unlike shaving or waxing, you will no longer experience razor burn or ingrown hairs. The laser can specifically target hair without damaging the surrounding skin.
- Speed and accuracy: because of its precision, the laser can remove multiple hair follicles at once, which means the entire session will take minimal time.
- Cost-effective: although the initial cost may seem expensive, you will actually be saving money in the long run by no longer having to purchase razors, shaving cream, waxing supplies, or hair removal creams. You also won’t have to spend money on waxing or threading appointments at the salon.
How it works
Laser hair removal works by targeting and damaging the root of the hair. The laser sends a beam of light into your hair follicles and the pigment in these follicles absorbs the light. The hair is immediately destroyed without causing damage to the surrounding tissue. Since the light from the laser is absorbed by dark pigment, the treatment works best on people with dark hair and a fair complexion.
The laser affects hairs that are in the growth stage, and since not all of your hair will be in the growth stage at the same time, you’ll need several treatments to remove all the hair. The number of treatments you will require depends on the colour of your hair and your skin type, but you can expect about 5-6 sessions before the hair is permanently reduced.
Laser Hair Removal for Men
If you’re a man seeking a permanent solution for unwanted hair, you can also benefit from laser hair removal. Larger areas like your back and chest can be treated quickly and effectively so you don’t have to worry about constantly shaving or waxing these areas.
Laser hair removal is also popular among men who are seeking an alternative to shaving their beards every day. The treatment can eliminate all of the hair from your beard, or you can choose to zone in on specific areas and sculpt your beard in a desired style. Once the hair is removed, you can enjoy the benefits of a stubble-free face without razor burn!
FAQs
Is Laser Hair Removal safe?
The lasers used by Advanced Laser Clinic are Health Canada and FDA approved for providing permanent hair reduction. Our machines use a dynamic cooling device to help minimize any discomfort of the treatment.
What areas of the body can be treated?
Our lasers allow us to treat any region on the body, however, the most commonly treated areas include: upper lip, chin, ears, beard, underarms, bikini area, legs, arms, and back.
How many treatments will I need?
Hair grows in cycles. The number of treatments required depends upon your skin, hair colouring and coarseness of the hair. Not everyone is a candidate for laser. Most people require 5-6 treatments as the process is only effective on hair during the anogen phase of the growth cycle.
