Laser hair removal is a very convenient way to permanently eliminate or reduce unwanted hair on the body or face. With laser hair removal in Los Angeles, CA, the results are superior to waxing, electrolysis and razors; it leaves the skin soft, smooth and silky and it does it with minimal downtime and minimal discomfort.
Who is a good candidate for laser hair removal?
- If you have unwanted hair on your face or body
- If you are looking to an alternative to shaving or waxing
- If you have light skin and dark hair
Those people with light skin and dark hair find the process to be more successful than those with dark skin and light hair. Dark hair absorbs the light from the laser better and light skin is a better transmitter of the laser effect to the hair follicle.
What to expect on the day of your treatment:
Once you have decided to go ahead with laser hair removal in Los Angeles, CA, you will be given an appointment; the entire procedure is performed on an outpatient basis. Prior to your treatment typically an anesthetic gel is applied to the area; this along with constant cooling of the skin during the treatment will help you stay comfortable. If you feel anything it will be little more than a very slight stinging sensation.
For most patients the procedure takes anywhere between fifteen minutes and half an hour however, the actual time is based on the area being treated.
Patients can usually return to work or whatever their daily activity is immediately after their treatment. There is no waiting for results, immediately after treatment you will have smoother skin and fewer hairs in the area that was treated. The hair that has been removed will not return, however to eliminate all of the active hair follicles it will take a few additional sessions.
