How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Unlike other hair removal procedures like waxing or shaving, laser hair treatments target the follicle where hair growth originates. Specialized lasers are safely used to heat the melanin in the hair follicle, without affecting the surrounding skin and tissue. The laser destroys the source of hair growth, preventing the follicle from continuing to produce additional hair.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it better to wax or undergo laser hair removal?
Although waxing may be easier to perform, this is only a temporary method of removing hair. People who use waxing as their hair removal option usually have to seek out sessions at least once a month. Results from laser hair removal are designed to be long-lasting and permanent.
Can you get skin cancer from it?
No, this procedure uses non-ionizing irradiation, which means that these lasers are actually safer than sun exposure.
Is laser hair removal dangerous for my health?
Serious side effects of laser hair removal are not common, and there is no evidence to suggest that there are any negative long-term effects from this treatment. In rare cases, some minor scarring may occur.Depending on your aesthetic needs and the assessment of your doctor, it is possible to use both injectables within a single treatment in specific locations of your face.
How long do results last?
Results will vary but individuals who have been treated will have permanent hair reduction for years. In some cases, inactive follicles may start to produce new hair due to hormonal changes. However, any additional hair growth is usually sparse and easy to remove with occasional maintenance treatments.
