Breaking news: laser hair removal for all skin types is now a reality!

That’s right, the advancements in laser technology now make this popular treatment an option for patients of every skin shade for a more inclusive hair-free community.

What Is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal uses laser light technology to target the pigment in your hair follicle at the base.

Once targeted, the laser destroys the follicle to prevent it from growing back.

How Long Is a Treatment Session?

The time in which your treatment will take depends on the area(s) of your body being treated.

Smaller areas may take as little as 15 minutes, while larger areas such as the back can take an hour or more.

How Many Treatments Are Required?

Your doctor will be the best person to determine how many LHR treatments will be required to achieve your ideal results.

However, most patients require up to six sessions in total.

Who Is a Good Candidate for LHR?

Laser hair removal is a great option for anyone looking to finally ditch expensive and time-consuming hair removal methods for a semi-permanent alternative.

In fact, this treatment is now an option for all ages, genders, and even for patients with darker pigmented skin.

However, patients with blonde or grey hair may not benefit from these treatments.

Talk to your doctor today to see if you are a good laser hair removal candidate.
