Removing body hair has been popular for decades — from shaving, to waxing, to at-home products that dissolve hair on the spot. With the advancement of technology and the growing demand for easy and effective hair removal, laser hair removal was born. At Renuance Cosmetic Surgery & MedSpa, we offer state-of-the-art laser hair removal using the GentleLASEⓇ laser by CandelaⓇ.
About laser hair removal
Over the course of several decades, the use of lasers to prevent or reduce hair growth has made incredible technological advancements and exploded in popularity. Laser hair removal has become one of the most commonly performed cosmetic treatments in the United States, and for good reason. Constantly shaving or waxing adds up, in terms of both time and money, which is why millions of people are seeking a more convenient and permanent solution.
The GentleLASE laser targets the hair follicles in the desired area and uses heat to damage the follicles during their growth phase without causing any damage to the skin around them. We pair GentleLASE with the patented Dynamic Cooling SystemTM, which protects against the laser’s heat and prevents any burning sensations.
Benefits of laser hair removal
Laser hair removal has many advantages, it’s no wonder it has become so popular. Some of the benefits include:
It’s speedy
For many people, time is of the essence, so the speediness of each session is a huge time-saver. The laser hits several hairs at once in a fraction of a second. Sessions take just a few minutes for smaller areas like the upper lip or under arms. For larger areas, such as the back and legs, sessions take under an hour.
It’s virtually painless
Opting for laser treatments is less painful than you’d think. People liken the sensation they feel during the procedure to the snap of a rubber band, if anything is felt at all. This is much more bearable than getting waxed, and there’s no risk of an accidental knick while shaving.
It’s precise
Laser hair removal is great for both small and large areas. The GentleLASE laser can target coarse, dark hairs while leaving the surrounding areas untouched. Laser treatments can be done on the face, chin, neck, shoulders, back, arms, legs, bikini line, and more.
It’s permanent
Multiple sessions are needed to achieve permanent hair removal. Though on average, people see an 80% permanent reduction in hair growth after just three treatments. After your first few sessions, our experienced medical team, led by Dr. Brian Eichenberg and Dr. Rachel Ford, let you know the number of treatments to expect.
