Laser Hair Removal has become one of the most reliable ways to reduce unwanted hair and enjoy smooth skin without constant upkeep. At Celibre Medical, one of our laser hair removal specialists will meet with you, examine the area of unwanted hair you want treated, and review your full medical history.
This first visit includes a skin-typing questionnaire that helps us determine your baseline skin tone. It allows us to make sure you’re a good candidate for Laser Hair Removal. It also helps us choose the safest and most economical laser to get you to your goal of smooth, hair-free skin.
We also take time to discuss your goals, your concerns, and any questions you may have about Laser Hair Removal.
Most patients describe the actual treatment as mildly uncomfortable. Our technology uses a chilled cooling tip that sits on the surface of the skin to make the treatment easier to tolerate. This cooling also protects the outer layer of the skin for safety.
When the laser fires, it may feel like a quick rubber band snap. That sensation is the laser energy being absorbed by the hair follicle and then dissipating.
Many patients say waxing and electrolysis are more uncomfortable. Electrolysis uses electrical current to heat and damage each follicle, but it’s extremely slow because only one follicle is treated at a time. Laser Hair Removal treats multiple follicles at once, which makes the process much faster.
Waxing is quick but involves ripping the hair out of the follicles every time. You repeat that pain every six to eight weeks, indefinitely. With Laser Hair Removal, the discomfort may last a little longer during each session but not by much, and you’re working toward a long-term solution.
Once you finish your treatment series, you can finally enjoy smooth skin without the constant maintenance. You’ll also gain back the time you used to spend waxing every few weeks.
If you’re looking for a more permanent solution to your unwanted hair, Laser Hair Removal can help you get there. Please give us a call today. We are offering 15 percent off treatments this month and can see you in either of our Los Angeles offices.
