Unwanted hair can be an enormous source of frustration and embarrassment. Shaving, tweezing and waxing can all be time consuming and sometimes painful tasks to perform on ourselves.
Laser hair removal offers a permanent solution for unwanted hair growth. In general, 4-6 treatment sessions may be necessary in order to see optimal results.
Plastic surgeons typically offer flexible payment plans or packages as an alternative payment option for such procedures, which do not qualify for health insurance reimbursement.
Underarms
Unwanted hair in the underarm area can be an irritating and distressful problem, particularly for women. Luckily, laser hair removal offers an effective solution; experienced laser technicians perform this procedure safely in a comfortable setting to permanently eliminate underarm hair growth.
At first, it’s necessary to arrange for a consultation to establish whether you qualify as a candidate for laser hair removal treatment. Once this step has been taken, your practitioner should apply topical anesthetic in order to minimize discomfort during the session. Once laser hair removal begins, you will sit comfortably in a laser chair while they use their handheld Icon device which emits pulses of light that penetrate deep into layers of your skin in order to target hair follicles and destroy them; you may feel a mild snapping sensation during treatment which should fade shortly afterwards.
After your first full body laser hair removal treatment, you can expect long-lasting and permanent results that exceed those achieved through shaving or waxing. No more razor burn, ingrown hairs or other related problems! When factoring in time savings as well as money saved on razors, waxing strips, depilatory creams etc – laser hair removal becomes an affordable solution that pays for itself quickly! For more information regarding its advantages contact Northshore Dermatology now to arrange a consultation consultation session!
Bikini Line
Bikini lines are an area where women commonly struggle with unwanted hair growth, especially during swimsuit season. While waxing or shaving are effective ways of temporarily eliminating excess body hair in this region, laser hair removal offers safer and more permanent solutions that will significantly decrease hair accumulation here.
Before receiving laser hair removal treatment, it is necessary to strip down to your undergarments and ensure your skin is nude. A technician will apply a gel that helps protect it and direct laser energy at specific hair follicles; you may experience some slight tingling sensation during this treatment session but this should dissipate quickly after your session is completed.
Once your full body laser hair removal treatment is completed, you can look forward to having silky smooth skin that is free from hair. No more worrying about ingrown hairs, razor burn, chafing or sweating while saving money by not purchasing temporary products that cost a fortune. Contact us now if you would like full body laser hair removal treatments done and our team of specialists will assist in finding the ideal option for your needs while providing an estimate for treatment costs.
Chest
Laser treatments could be the solution if you’re suffering from excessive chest hair growth. Laser therapy uses laser light pulses to destroy hair follicles, effectively eliminating their ability to produce hair growth – an ideal option for men and women with unwanted chest, back, or arm hair growth.
Many men and women opt to shave or wax their chest hair, which can be messy and time consuming; additionally, this practice can result in painful ingrown hairs. Laser hair removal offers the safest method of eliminating unwanted hair as it targets its source and prevents future growth.
As part of your preparation for chest laser hair removal, shave the area before your appointment. Shaving will make treating easier and improve results, as will avoiding sun exposure prior to treatment as a suntan or skin burn can diminish its efficacy.
Keep in mind that chest laser hair removal sessions are considered cosmetic, and therefore won’t be covered by health insurance. However, you may be eligible to use your flexible spending account as payment. Speak with a provider of laser hair removal to learn more – they should provide an estimate for how many treatments will be required and the costs per session.
Back
Louisiana Aesthetics and Skin Care offers laser hair removal treatment as an additional way of diminishing cellulite and unwanted hair growth. Their team uses the handheld Icon device, which produces laser heat that damages hair follicles, thus inhibiting further regrowth. You may feel some rubber band-like snapping sensations during treatment but discomfort levels should remain minimal.
Your practitioner will apply a topical numbing cream to your back prior to beginning laser treatments in order to make the experience as comfortable as possible. Once this numbing agent takes effect, laser sessions typically last five-60 minutes, depending on which body area needs work.
Once treatment has been completed, you’ll enjoy having a hair-free back. This makes wearing sleeveless tops and skirts without feeling self-conscious about arms or back easier, plus no longer having to use depilatory creams in the shower for shaving, waxing or depilatory cream use in order to achieve it.
Although laser hair removal might initially seem costly, its return is more than worth your while in the long run. When you factor in all the razors, razor blades, shaving cream and wax sessions that won’t need to be purchased or utilized anymore – you begin to appreciate why many patients find laser hair removal worth investing in.

Are you fed up with repeatedly shaving, waxing or bleaching unwanted hair? Laser hair removal could provide the permanent solution you’ve been seeking.

Face
Laser hair removal can provide an effective, convenient, and permanent way to eliminate unwanted facial and body hair, leaving behind silky smooth skin. Laser treatments offer safe, convenient, and permanent hair removal without waxing, electrolysis or razors – as well as more ingrown hairs or razor rashes caused by shaving!
Laser treatments can be used to quickly and safely remove unwanted facial hair from areas like the upper lip, sideburns, chin and neck – as well as full beard areas for men. Laser hair removal may also work for eyebrows but it is best to consult your provider on what plan will best meet your needs.
As part of your preparation for laser treatment, avoid plucking or waxing at least six weeks prior to your appointment in order to allow the registered nurse, physician’s assistant or dermatologist better evaluate the color of your hair and skin to effectively target hair follicles. Furthermore, shaving on the day of your appointment is strongly encouraged for optimal results.
