Frequently
Asked Questions
Can
you do laser hair removal anywhere on the body?
We can do laser hair removal just about anywhere on the body.
The
most common areas for women are the upper lip, chin, eyebrows
and bikini line.
Men
like to do hair removal at the back and shoulders,
front of the neck (common place for ingrown hairs) as well as
the glabella (space between the eyebrows). We do arms, legs,
toes, underarms and more!
Is
laser hair removal really permanent?
Yes,
it is permanent in most people after a series of 6-8 treatments.
The
majority of clients will see significant reduction of hair as
well as finer and thinner hairs after a series of treatments.
It depends on the goal of hair removal. If you just want
a reduction in the number and coarseness of the hair, two
to four treatments may be all you desire. If you want
significant clearance of hair it will take the typical 6-8
treatments.
Does
laser hair removal hurt?
You
won’t fall asleep in the treatment chair but you will not be
in pain. The lasers we use have a cool stream of air that cools the skin immediately before the
laser fires. We can make the treatment effective yet comfortable
by adjusting the amount of energy delivered.
Why should I come
to you?
Besides
the convenience of our Broomfield Colorado
location, we are all
Nurses working in a clean professional clinic offering fair competitive prices for the latest medical equipment.
How
many laser hair removal treatments will I need?
Most
clients require about 6-8 treatments for significant clearance
of hair. Fewer treatments are needed if your goal is to reduce
the number of hairs as well as the coarseness of the remaining
hair.
Why
does it take more than one treatment?
Hair
grows in cycles. The laser only disables the hair in the active
stage of growth at the time of treatment.
It does, however, affect the hairs in the early and late
stages. The hairs that return are those that were not in the
active stage of growth at the time of treatment.
They appear lighter in color and finer in texture. We
do see some results after just one treatment, but additional
treatments are needed to have significant clearance of hair.
What
other methods of permanent hair removal are available?
Electrology
is a proven permanent method for hair removal. It is a
hair-by-hair treatment that requires a needle to be inserted
into the hair follicle. The needle emits both heat and
electricity to disable the hair. Electrology requires regular
treatments (at least every three weeks) for several years.
With the laser, we can treat a much larger area (up to
the size of a quarter) in a much shorter time period (6-8
months) without the discomfort of a needle.
Why
do you recommend laser hair removal?
Laser
hair removal is fast, convenient, and has minimal side effects.
It can save you up to 10 minutes a day just by skipping the full
leg shave. Think of the money you have spent on razors, shaving
creams, bleaching creams and eyebrow waxes. We offer solutions to expensive as well as time-consuming hair
grooming.
