What Can I Expect from Laser Hair Removal?
At your hair removal procedure, you can relax in a private treatment room as the areas of your face and body being treated are washed to remove dirt, oil, and creams. During laser hair removal, a team member will smooth out the area to provide a clear path between the root of the hair follicle and the laser. At Exclusively Faces Cosmetic Surgery and Medispa, we use the state-of-the-art Lutronic Clarity II™ to perform laser hair removal while preserving the skin and other tissue in the area being treated. The laser's energy will focus on and destroy the hair follicle, preventing the hair from growing again. On average, you will need 3 – 5 sessions over a period of 3 – 4 weeks to get your optimal results. Your appointments will be spaced out in order to give the treated areas time to recover and allow time for follicles in the dormant phase of growth to change to the phase of active growth so the laser can be effective. After your session, you will be free to resume your daily activities, but you should refrain from strenuous activity or lengthy exposure to the sun for a period of a day to let the treated areas recover. You may look and feel like you have a sunburn, but this shouldn't last too long.
