Denver Laser Hair Removal Expert

Laser hair removal is quickly gaining popularity, but many people have questions about the procedure. Below are some of the mostly commonly asked, answered.

1. Is it safe?
Yes. The laser targets only the hair, safely removing unwanted body hair with no damage done to pores or other structures of the skin.

2. Is it permanent?
Yes. The FDA has given approval for the lasers as effective at permanent hair removal.

3. How does it work?
The laser’s light targets the pigment in the hair shaft, effectively cauterizing and destroying the follicle at the base.

4. Does it hurt?
Everyone’s skin is different. There may be some minor pain if you have delicate skin. If you know you have sensitive skin, request a topical anesthetic be applied beforehand.

5. What should I expect afterward?
Immediately after treatment, your skin will most likely be slightly pink, for up to an hour or two.

6. Does the hair fall out?
Not instantly, but over the next one or two weeks, you will observe hair in the treated area gradually falling out, and hair in the treated area will be greatly lessened.

7. Do I need more than one treatment?
Yes. Hair grows in cycles, with only about one-third of hair visible on the skin at any given time. Only visible hair can be treated by laser removal. More treatments will be necessary as more hair becomes visible.
