UNDERSTANDING HAIR REMOVAL

The laser works by producing a beam of highly concentrated light that targets the melanin pigment contained within the hair follicles. Once absorbed, the light transforms to heat, destroying the entire part of the follicle responsible for the growth of new hair while leaving surrounding skin unaffected.

Hair grows in cycles of various phases: an active growth phase (Anagen), a regressive phase (Catagen), and a resting phase (Telogen). The laser most effectively targets and destroys hair that is in the active growth phase. Since all hairs are not in the active phase at any given time, multiple treatments are necessary to achieve the best result. Hairs that may have been dormant during your previous laser hair removal session may now be in the growth phase.

The total number of treatment to diminish or remove unwanted hair varies between individuals. On occasion there are patients that do not respond to treatments. During your complimentary consultation, our physicians and trained staff will construct a treatment schedule that will meet your specific needs and ultimately help you achieve your desired results.
