What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser Hair Removal utilizes laser treatments to offer a safe and effective method of removing unwanted body hair.

How long does Laser Hair Removal last?
Laser Hair Removal can permanently disable the hair you have in an active growth cycle on the day of your treatment. However, circumstances such as pregnancy, menopause, certain medications and hormonal conditions can trigger a dormant follicle to grow in.  Dormant follicles are not active and therefore not able to be treated. The new growth, however, will be much lighter in color and considerably finer in texture because of the procedure. If this should happen, a touch-up treatment would be required.

Where can Laser Hair Removal be used?
Laser Hair Removal can be used anywhere on the body (except adjacent to the eye) where there is excess hair.

How long does the treatment take?
A treatment normally takes between 15 and 45 minutes, although time varies depending upon the area being treated.

How soon will I see results?
The hair that was treated will begin to work its way out of the follicle and will start to fall out between 10-14 days after the treatment.

Are there any potential side effects?
Side effects may include slight redness (most clients return to natural color within 20 -30 minutes). Pigmentary changes of the skin, blisters and hot spots are rare but occasionally occur.

Who shouldn’t receive Laser Hair Removal?
One should not undergo Laser Hair Removal if they have been recently tanning. Not all lasers can treat all skin colors and hair colors.
