Laser Hair Removal is a popular treatment for unwanted facial and body hair at Burlington Medi Spa serving Burlington, Oakville, Hamilton and surrounding areas. The most popular areas for laser hair removal for women are the chin, upper lip, underarms and bikini area and for men, their back or chest.
How Does The Laser Work?
The laser disables the hair that is principally in the active growth phase at the time of treatment. There are three distinct phases including growth, regression and resting. Since other hairs will enter this active phase at different times, a series of treatments are necessary to disable all of the hair follicles in a given area. Facial and body hair will have different treatment intervals for effective long term results.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Most areas require 4- 6 treatments. However, the number of treatments required for optimal long term benefits depends on multiple factors including hair thickness, the area treated and your hair’s growth cycle. Finer hair and darker skin tones may require more treatments.
Is Laser Hair Removal Permanent?
Laser Hair Removal is a permanent method with a 70% – 90% hair reduction but the treatments will not remove 100% of your hair. Hormonal fluctuations and imbalance, medications and trauma to the area may cause hair to grow. Maintenance treatments may be necessary during these times.
Why Do I Need a Consultation?
During the Laser Hair Removal consultation we will discuss the benefits and risks of the treatment. Additionally, we will discuss the treatment itself, do skin type classification, review pre and post procedures and when to have the treatments for the best results. A patch test of the area requiring treatment is done at this time to ensure this is the best treatment for you. It is important to educate yourself about the treatment and choose a Medical Aesthetician who has experience doing Laser Hair Removal.
