Laser hair removal is the ideal solution for unwanted body hair. It produces long-lasting results without any need for constant shaving or painful plucking. At Park & Rebowe Clinic, we provide laser hair removal in Alabama using the latest in laser hair reduction technology.
What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Body hair grows in numerous areas, including the scalp, face, back, chest, arms, thighs, legs, hands, and feet. When it comes to removing unwanted body hair, a lot of people try solutions like shaving, waxing, applying depilatory products, threading, prescription creams, and electrolysis.
Many of these options can be frustrating, repetitive, costly, and painful. To avoid these issues, try laser hair removal, one of the most effective hair-removal treatments. This procedure creates results that last longer than other hair-removal treatments. In some cases, it is even permanent.
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Laser hair removal directs a concentrated beam of laser energy towards the treatment area. The energy is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair, and the heat of the energy damages the hair follicles. This impairs future hair growth.
Popular Treatment Areas for Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal can be performed on virtually any part of the body. The most common treatment areas are:
- Back
- Bikini/Brazilian
- Chin
- Glabellar Region (Between Brows)
- Legs (Full and Partial)
- Shoulders
- Under Arms
- Upper Lip
Am I a Good Candidate?
Both men and women with unwanted body hair are candidates for laser hair removal. Patients with darker hair are ideal candidates for this procedure. Candidates should be committed to coming in for all required treatment sessions for optimal results.
Your Consultation
Your consultation will involve discussing your goals and evaluating the concerned areas. A treatment plan will be created, which will be explained to you in great detail. Pre-treatment instructions will be given to you. This may include avoiding sun exposure and having the treatment area shaved prior to treatment. You can ask questions and Dr. Park or Dr. Rebowe will address all of them.
Your Laser Hair Removal Session
A laser hair removal session can last up to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area. The patient will wear protective eye goggles during treatment.
Dr. Park or Dr. Rebowe will hold the laser device against the treatment area and trigger the release of the laser energy. The patient will feel a sensation of heat during treatment, which can be reduced using a cooling gel.
Laser Hair Removal Aftercare
The patient can get back to normal activities after laser hair removal. No recovery time/downtime is needed after treatment. The patient may experience minor swelling and redness, which can last up to 24 hours. Aftercare instructions will be given, including applying ice to the treatment area to reduce any discomfort.
It will take days to weeks for treated hair to start falling. Results will last several months or even years.
Multiple laser hair removal sessions will be required to ensure that all follicles are treated effectively. Sessions are usually every four to eight weeks, depending on the treatment plan.
How Much Does Laser Hair Removal Cost?
The cost of laser hair removal will depend on factors like the size and number of treatment areas. The number of sessions can also affect the overall price of laser hair reduction. Financing is available through CareCredit.
