How does laser hair removal work?
With laser light, our team of providers can slowly reduce the amount of hair in the treatment option over the course of several months. The light penetrates into the hair follicles in the active growth phase and damages them, keeping them from producing new hair. While hair grows in a certain growth cycle, not all hair in the treatment area is treated with a single procedure. Patients seeking a reduction in hair thickness in an area will need fewer treatments than someone seeking full and permanent removal of unwanted hair.
Where can laser hair removal be performed?
Any part of the body can be treated with laser hair removal, though the more popular areas include:
- Face
- Arms
- Underarms
- Chest
- Back
- Bikini line
- Legs
