Tired of stubble, daily shaving battles, and painful wax sessions? Laser hair removal can free you from the burden of hair removal, and if you start now, you can be silky smooth by summer.
Read on as our team of aesthetic experts at RefineU Med Spa in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, explains how laser hair removal works, where you can use it, and why now is the perfect time to get started.
Laser hair removal uses light energy to destroy unwanted hair follicles. During your session, Christianne Van Der Heide, LPN — our laser technician here at RefineU Med Spa — uses a hand-held device to target your treatment area.
As the device passes over your skin, a laser emits pulses of light absorbed by the pigment in your hair follicles. As the pigment absorbs the light energy, it heats up, damages the follicle, and prevents future growth.
Common areas treated include:
Regardless of which area you treat, you need multiple sessions to make sure each hair gets targeted during its growing phase.
Laser hair removal targets hair follicles only during their active growth phase, which is why several treatments are needed. Most people require 2-6 sessions, typically spaced 4-6 weeks apart, to see results. You lose about 25% of unwanted hair after your first treatment.
Starting in the spring gives your skin the time it needs to go through the process so you can enjoy smooth, hair-free skin by summer.
Bare skin is the No. 1 benefit of laser hair removal, but it’s not the only one. When you treat yourself to laser hair removal, you also benefit from:
Unlike shaving or waxing, laser hair removal isn’t short-lived. Your skin is silky smooth for many summers to come.
If you spend five minutes shaving each day — and many people take far longer than that — that’s over 30 hours a year. Laser hair removal lets you skip shaving, which saves time.
Laser hair removal spares you from the discomfort and pain of waxing and shaving. Say goodbye to razor bumps, ingrown hairs, and painful waxing sessions.
Excess body hair can make people feel self-conscious or contribute to feelings of anxiety and even depression.
Studies show that laser hair removal boosts confidence. After just three sessions, participants reported lower depression levels and enhanced quality of life.
Plus, with only mild, temporary side effects like slight redness or irritation, laser hair removal is a safe and effective way to feel more comfortable and confident in your skin.
