What to Know Before You Get Laser Hair Removal

If you’re new to the world of laser hair removal, you might have a lot of questions. Is it safe? Is it effective? How much is it going to cost you? Is it right for your skin type? These are all very valid questions to be asking yourself, and we’re glad you’re concerned about your safety, well being, and the quality of our services. This only excites us, because we are on your team! We will even dare to say that we care about these things more than you do! Not only do we want you to look and feel your best, satisfaction and safety are also our number one priorities! 

What is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is a modern alternative to the old fashioned ways of removing body hair. Sure, you can do it old school and get involved with shaving, waxing, and plucking, and you might be thinking “if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it,” but hear us out for a second. Laser hair removal is quick, virtually painless, good for all skin types, and longer lasting than the old guard. You’ll find that your skin will remain silky smooth for longer periods of time than what you’re usually used to if you’ve never tried laser hair removal before. By gradually heating the dermis to a temperature that effectively damages hair follicles, hair is prevented from growing back.

Is there anything that will put me at risk?

While our services are safe and effective, there are some risk factors that some people may have which would not be recommended for our treatments. If you’re taking antibiotics and photosensitive medications that can’t be discontinued, you will be at risk. Additionally, having any form of damaged skin will not work with our laser hair removal services. When in doubt, consult your physician so there’s no confusion. Your safety is so important to us, and we want to do right by you. 

Okay, I’m in! Is there anything else I should know?
