If you've ever wished you could throw out your razor for good, then you may be interested in laser hair removal. This popular and effective treatment corrects excessive hair growth by completely removing it in various areas of the body. Aside from electrolysis, there is no other permanent hair removal system available.
Until fairly recently, electrolysis was the go-to hair removal treatment. However, that procedure is tedious and uncomfortable – hair follicles are treated individually with a tiny needle. Heat from the needle destroys follicles one by one. With thousands of hair follicles, you can imagine how time consuming such treatment could be.
Laser hair removal achieves the same results, but a laser destroys hundreds of hair follicles with one pulse of light. Due to the precision and effectiveness of the instrument used at Pierre Skin Care Institute, hair removal is so fast that there is rarely a need for topical anesthetic. However, your comfort is our priority; if you are interested in the application of a topical numbing cream before any treatment, just let us know.
Treatments with the LightSheer™ Duet laser require no down time and are suitable for any skin type. You may resume normal activity immediately following treatment. While results are instant, it is important to understand how hair removal works. Because hair may only be eliminated at the growth point in its natural cycle, you will notice re-growth after some time. Laser hair removal, although permanent, does require several sessions to reach the point where hair will no longer grow.
Every patient is different, so it is impossible to determine the exact number of sessions required to complete the cycle. Typically, a patient will need 6 to 12 sittings to eliminate all hair, but improvement in density is seen right away. When you compare multiple sessions to the frequent chore of shaving or waxing, you will quickly come to the conclusion that laser hair removal is your best option.
