Laser hair removal (LHR) technology has been available since 1997 and has made some incredible advances over the years. We have evaluated many types of lasers to ensure we provide not only the most effective solution, but also one of the most comfortable. Derma Health now offers the LightSheer Desire laser from Lumenis, one of the most effective and versatile lasers available today. LightSheer provides a cooltip technology which makes this procedure virtually pain free. Another exciting feature of this new technology is it makes Laser Hair Removal available for all skin types.
Laser Hair Removal is a non-invasive treatment that eliminates unwanted body hair from just about every part of the body.
Our diode laser combines light and heat in a single wave to destroy the hair follicle over time. As the follicle is treated, the hair becomes thinner and thinner until it eventually ceases to grow.
The diode laser used at Derma Health is the only laser hair removal laser on the market that is safe for all skin types, even African, Hispanic, Eastern Indian and more!
The number of treatments required for optimal results will depend on your skin type and the color of the hair being treated. The minimum number of treatments for any hair type is 6 treatments spaced about four weeks apart (this is also dependent on the area being treated).
Laser Hair Removal used to be quite painful, but with the introduction of the diode laser and the cooling tip technology, this treatment is now virtually painless.
The time in treatment is dependent on the number and size of the areas being treated. Appointments may take anywhere from 15 to 90 minutes.
Touch up treatments are recommended on an annual basis, and barring any remarkable hormonal changes, the hair will usually not return.
It is helpful to shave the area prior to treatment. Your aesthetician will then cleanse and cover the area in a gel substance right before treatment begins.
Some clients may experience mild skin irritation after a laser hair treatment in the form of redness or small bumps. These side effects typically are alleviated after a few hours. You should use sunscreen after treatment.
Laser hair removal with a diode laser is one of the safest aesthetic treatments you can receive. As with any aesthetic treatment, however, risks may occur. Laser Hair Removal is always administered by highly skilled and licensed providers at Derma Health Skin & Laser.
