Pain-Free With No Down-Time

How Long Does Laser Hair Removal Take?

When it comes to laser hair removal West Des Moines patients often wonder how long a session will take. The truth is, it can vary from customer to customer. Factors can include the size of the treatment area and how well your body reacts to it. The good news is that our procedure is virtually pain-free and doesn’t require any aftercare or downtime. The number of laser hair removal sessions may also vary. Additional things we need to consider are your hair and skin type. Essentially, the pigment of the hair, but not of the skin, should absorb the light, therefore damaging the hair follicle only and not the skin. Therefore, a contrast between dark hair and light skin can result in the best outcomes. Still, laser hair removal technology has made this procedure an option for patients with darker skin. Unfortunately, it can be less effective for light hair colors like red, white, gray, and blonde.

Is Laser Hair Removal Right For Me?

No matter the type and color of your hair and skin, our West Des Moines Laser Hair Removal professionals can help you determine if this treatment is right for you. This process generates a specific wavelength that can only be absorbed by a particular pigment, so laser matching is essential. Faulty laser matching could quickly end in burns and hypopigmentation. That is why it is vital to have a highly skilled and trained team of professionals perform the procedure.

Advanced Laser Technology

SHR™ Laser Hair Removal

The SHR laser hair removal system is the gold standard for permanently removing hair. Rather than exposing hair follicles to a precise high-energy beam that can easily damage skin, SHR™ works by gradually heating the dermis to gently damage hair follicles, block growth, and protect any surrounding tissue. This laser system is considered the safest and most effective laser hair removal solution globally. Its advanced technology is used in clinics worldwide and treats every range of hair and skin tones.

Will Laser Hair Removal Work For Me?

As we mentioned, our state-of-the-art technology is a perfect solution for hair reduction and works on any skin color or hair type. After making an appointment for a consultation at our West Des Moines, IA medspa, we will review your medical history before clearing you for any cosmetic treatment. We are always happy to provide you with additional information about laser hair removal.

Preparation

Preparing For Permanent Hair Removal

Our professional experts recommend the following:

Stay away from the sun. Avoid sun exposure before and after treatments, and remember to wear SPF 30 sunscreen when you go out
Avoid tanning
Don’t remove your hair. Alternative methods like waxing, tweezing, and electrolysis can affect hair follicles and should be avoided for at least a month prior to treatment
Do not take blood-thinning medications like Ibuprofen
Avoid anti-inflammatory drugs like Aspirin
Shave the treatment area the day before your procedure. This removes any hair that could result in surface damage to the skin but still leaves the hair shaft intact under the surface

Procedure

What To Expect with Laser Hair Removal

Our laser hair removal treatments usually require two to six sessions. The time between treatments will vary depending on the location of the area. Areas like the upper lip, where hair grows back quicker, treatments may be repeated every four to eight weeks. Areas with slower growth, such as the back or arms, may require sessions every 12 to 16 weeks. We provide special goggles during every session to protect your sensitive eyes from the laser beam. We may apply a topical anesthetic to the treatment area to reduce the risk of discomfort.

Achieve Perfect Results

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?

The laser hair removal procedure is very straightforward. We beam highly concentrated heat and light directly into hair follicles, which absorb the light to destroy the hair. Our expert technicians target specific hair follicles to get perfect results while leaving surrounding areas untouched. As hair follicles grow, they become thinner and grow slower between treatments until they are completely gone.
