The Science Behind Laser Hair Removal
When those cold winter winds and rain are replaced by warm spring breezes and sunny summer days, most northern California residents look forward to wearing their shorts, skirts, and other light-weight sportswear. Men and women plagued by excess hair, however, may hesitate to enjoy that freedom. The solution: laser hair removal in Sacramentoat Kaufman & Clark Plastic Surgery.
Understanding the Science
When men and women come to our practice for laser hair removal, they often feel frustrated by their attempts to banish excess hair. Bouts of battling with depilatory creams, waxing solutions, painful plucking procedures, and daily shaving provide only temporary relief from unwanted hair. Yet they hesitate to opt for the permanent solution of laser hair removal because they worry about possible harm to the adjacent skin.
Here's how this safe and effective solution works:
During a consultation at our practice, patients discuss their areas of concern, such as excess hair on the arms, legs, back, stomach, or face.
During the procedure, we use a new and highly effective technology, the LightSheer Duet laser, to target and destroy only the undesired hair follicles, without any impact to the surrounding skin.
This pain-free treatment requires no anesthesia, bandages, or medication. Because the LightSheer Duet method provides a larger spot size and multiple hand-pieces, we can perform the procedure quickly and efficiently.
Why Multiple Treatments Are Required
Depending on the areas and amount of excess hair, most patients require several treatment sessions for optimal results, due to their hair's growth cycle. All laser hair removal devices are only able to treat hair follicles that are in an active growth phase. At any one time, some hair follicles will be in a dormant phase, meaning that no hair will be present to absorb the energy emitted by the laser. During subsequent treatments, follicles that were dormant during the initial treatment should enter an active phase and begin to produce a hair that can then be treated.
Are There Any Risks or Recovery Period?
Risks associated with laser hair removal are minimal, especially when the procedure is performed by a trained and experienced medical professional. There is no recovery period needed after each treatment session. Laser hair removal patients are able to enjoy their regular routine immediately after the procedure.
Procedures Combined with Laser Hair Removal
In many cases, our patients are so delighted with the results that they want to learn about other options for achieving their cosmetic goals. Non-surgical treatments such as BOTOX Cosmetic or a chemical peel may be combined with laser hair removal on the body for a more complete makeover.
I also offer procedures such as breast enhancement, face lift, tummy tuck and liposuction at my cosmetic surgery practice in Sacramento. While there are certainly some good medical spas that offer only non-surgical treatments, many patients have added peace of mind when choosing a full-service cosmetic medical practice for their laser hair removal treatment, knowing that they are building a relationship with a practice that can handle their cosmetic needs now and in the future.
