Permanently removing pubic hair through laser treatment is an excellent way to avoid painful bumps and ingrown hairs – not to mention save yourself years of waxing or shaving!
As part of your initial laser session, it is crucial that you follow your technician’s pre-treatment orders in advance. Make sure to shave before arriving as any hair that lingers above the skin’s surface can absorb laser light and heat and cause irreparable damage.
It’s Safe
Laser hair removal is an FDA-approved treatment to safely and permanently eliminate unwanted body hair. This technology eliminates the need for shaving, waxing or tweezing in order to eliminate unwanted hair. Lasers can be used on armpits, face, bikini area, back legs as well as any other part of a person’s body; helping reduce its amount and enhance appearance.
Some individuals might experience redness and swelling for several hours following laser hair removal sessions, however these side effects usually subside quickly. To mitigate potential discomfort caused by these side effects, those looking for ways to alleviate them might consider applying cold compresses or taking anti-inflammatory medication. It’s also essential that all instructions provided by professional prior and after the process are strictly adhered to.
Experienced practitioners should also be chosen for laser hair removal treatments. A good practitioner will have been licensed by their state and be listed on a register that displays they have met established training, skill and insurance standards. A good practitioner knows which laser type to use based on skin tone and complexion as well as understanding how hormones influence hair growth.
Laser treatment can be painful if performed incorrectly, which is why it’s crucial to have a qualified practitioner apply the laser light at an optimal setting in order to treat an adequate area. Heat from the laser destroys hair follicles so they no longer produce hair growth; multiple sessions may be required before an individual notices a reduction in body hair permanently.
Hair has its own growth cycle, so some hair may regrow after laser therapy – however it will likely be lighter or finer than before resulting in smoother skin texture and making for more comfortable touch up sessions to maintain results. To get optimal results it may also be necessary to take part in touch up sessions on an annual basis to maintain results.
Laser treatment during pregnancy is not advised due to insufficient human studies proving its safety for the baby; however, some women might find laser treatments helpful for controlling hair growth during the hormonal changes experienced during gestation.
It’s Effective
Unwanted hair growth can be an inconvenience, and traditional removal methods like shaving and waxing require extensive upkeep. Laser treatment offers a permanent solution to unwanted hair. Plus, laser is also effective at eliminating hair that causes irritation such as razor bumps, ingrown hairs, or pilonidal cysts that lead to razor bumps or razor burns.
Laser beams are targeted directly at hair follicles in your skin and heated by laser light to destroy them, rendering them inactive so they no longer produce hair growth. Most men and women require multiple treatments spaced four weeks apart for maximum effectiveness; your practitioner will suggest an optimal schedule that includes multiple sessions.
Some patients may have sensitive skin in areas targeted for laser hair removal; however, most do not experience pain during their session. Patients often describe it as feeling like tiny rubber bands flicking against your skin – however if any discomfort arises during your laser hair removal treatment session your laser technician can apply an anesthetic cream before beginning.
Laser hair removal procedures usually take less than an hour to complete; however, their duration depends on the size and location of the area being treated. A small area like an upper lip may only need one session while larger regions like back or legs could take up to an hour or longer.
Most practitioners will suggest shaving the area prior to laser hair removal treatment. Shaving will remove surface-level hairs, enabling laser beams to focus their beam directly on hair follicles. You should also refrain from tweezing, plucking or using cream depilatories on this area for at least a week prior to having treatment done.
Once the process is completed, you should not see any new hair growth for several months or years in the treated areas. When hair does reappear, it usually grows back thinner and lighter in color; some individuals opt for maintenance laser treatments to extend the effects of their initial sessions.
After several months, some hair may return due to hormonal fluctuations rather than laser hair removal; if this causes any concerns, touch-up treatments at LH Spa & Rejuvenation may provide some additional relief.
It’s Fast
Laser treatments transform light energy into heat energy to destroy hair follicles in the pubic area and prevent new hair growth. This process is significantly faster than shaving, waxing or electrolysis and provides permanent results – meaning no more hassle with shaving or waxing and smoother skin all year long!
Laser hair removal requires shaving the area where you intend to apply laser energy, but you should do it sparingly and not beyond its purpose. In order for laser light to reach its destination effectively, it needs to penetrate to the root of the follicle where hair follicles reside – too much long hair may prevent that. Plumping and waxing the treated area should also be avoided to maximize success of treatment.
When it is necessary to shave, use a razor designed specifically to remove hair that lies above the surface of your skin, such as Nair. This will reduce ingrown hairs and razor burn. Furthermore, consider using shaving cream specifically designed to target only visible hair removal like Nair.
Ideally, it would be wise to shave as soon as possible after receiving laser treatments in order to minimize hair growth after they have been eliminated by shaving. Longer the hair is, the less likely it will grow back after treatment has taken place.
Once your hair has been removed, it will take time for your skin to recuperate after receiving laser therapy. Scabbling and redness may appear; this should subside after several days. For optimal healing after laser hair removal treatments, moisturize and exfoliate three times weekly; avoid tanning or prolonged sun exposure after treatment.
To permanently eliminate unwanted hair, multiple sessions will likely be needed for maximum effectiveness. After your initial treatments, your hair growth should become significantly diminished; depending on how thick and dark your hair is, six may be necessary for complete removal; number of treatments depends on thickness/color combination – for instance if there were 1000 hairs present in a target area and 35% were removed by one treatment, only 500 or so will remain by your sixth visit!
It’s Affordable
Laser hair removal can be much more cost-effective and time-efficient than shaving, tweezing and waxing for people seeking to remove unwanted pubic hair. Plus it saves them precious minutes per day in terms of spending hours shaving for smooth bikini lines!
Laser hair removal is a safe, efficient solution suitable for all skin types and body areas. This treatment works by targeting pigment (color) within each hair follicle to destroy it so it no longer grows hair follicles; this process is pain-free and only lasts a fraction of a second.
Results of laser hair removal treatments can be seen almost instantly, although full reduction usually requires 6-12 sessions to occur due to different stages at which hair grows and being hit by laser light.
After receiving laser hair removal treatment, it is normal for the skin to become dry. This may result in itching and skin crusting; to soothe this situation, moisturize frequently while avoiding picking or scratching as this can expose it to infection and leave scars that will not look attractive in later years.
Laser treatments for hair removal are both safe and highly effective, and available at professional clinics. There are also effective at-home models of laser hair removal devices; however, it is wise to consult with a trained specialist prior to use as they are less powerful and must be used correctly to avoid potential side effects or damage.
Shaving and waxing can be both costly and time-consuming activities that leave ingrown hairs or razor bumps on your skin, leading to costly appointments at Ideal Image for regular shaves or waxes, plus painful ingrowns and bumps from traditional methods of hair removal.
