Laser Hair Removal Beverly Hills

WHAT IS LASERHAIR REMOVAL?

Laser hair removal is one of the most common cosmetic procedures in the U.S. It consists of beaming highly concentrated light into hair follicles, where pigment in the follicles absorb the light, destroying the hair.

Lasers are useful for removing unwanted hair from the face, leg, chin, back, arm, underarm, bikini line, and other areas. At The Plastic Surgery Institute, we use the Lumenis Lightsheer XC Diode Laser System. By using one of the most advanced laser hair removal systems on the market, we can provide patients of all skin types and hair color the fast and effective results they desire. As hair has different stages of growth, a series of treatments is necessary for maximum results.

Skin So SmoothIt’s Simply Irresistible

The feeling of skin on skin is one of life’s greatest pleasures, and body hair can just get in the way sometimes. Not to mention the time it takes to shave, risking cuts and ingrown hairs, or the pain of a waxing session. This is why The Plastic Surgery Institute provides our Beverly Hills and Los Angeles patients laser hair removal, offering long-lasting, painless, and immediate results.

WHAT DOES THE TREATMENT PROCESS LOOK LIKE?

Just prior to the procedure, the hair that will be undergoing treatment will be trimmed to a few millimeters above the skin surface. A topical numbing cream may be applied, and the laser equipment will be adjusted according to the color, thickness, and location of your hair being treated, as well as your skin color.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING TREATMENT?

A typical laser hair removal treatment takes 15 – 60 minutes depending on the areas being treated.The procedure is typically performed without anesthetic, but a topical numbing cream will be provided if requested. Eye shields will also be given as protection. The practitioner will evaluate the areas to be treated and apply a cooling gel prior to starting that works as a conductor for the laser. During the treatment the practitioner will guide the handpiece over the areas to be treated. Patients typically experience minimal pain such as a prickling feeling or increased sensation of heat during treatment.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER TREATMENT?

After treatment, a cooling serum is applied if needed. Post-treatment guidelines will be provided to the patient and sun exposure of the treated area needs to be avoided until redness disappears, usually within a few hours. If sun exposure cannot be avoided we recommend using and reapplying sunscreen with SPF 50 or higher. After Laser Hair Removal Beverly Hills patients' reuslts become noticeable over several weeks after each treatment. A series of treatments is needed for maximum results, with most patients experiencing long-term hair loss after 4-6 treatments, scheduled at 4-6 week intervals.

HOW DOES LASERHAIR REMOVAL WORK?

Laser hair removal works via shining light energy on to the unwanted hair, and selectively targeting the pigment in your hair follicles. This light energy is converted to heat, and damages and destroys the hair follicle, preventing new growth in the future.

Often, a single session of laser hair removal may not destroy all hair follicles, as each hair on your body goes through a natural growth cycle where they alternate between resting and active states. As such, how long it may take for the hair to grow back (if ever) may depend on your natural follicle cycle. Call us today to set up a consultation at The Plastic Surgery Institute to see what options are available to you. We would love to set your mind at ease and show you how much you could improve your own aesthetics and increase your self-confidence by getting rid of unwanted hair growth.
