FAQs
Why choose us?
We use an Intense Pulsed Light (IPL). Whereas general lasers only have one wavelength of light, IPLs have several different wavelengths. This allows for a more customized treatment based on your hair and skin type.
What does a treatment feel like?
Treatment discomfort varies. Most people find the IPL treatment painless, while others can experience some slight discomfort ( similar to a pinch or the snap of a rubber band) but it only lasts for a second. A layer of cool gel is applied to the area prior to the treatment. The gel cools and comforts the skin while also acting as a conductor for the light.
For electrolysis treatments ice is applied to cool and comfort the area before treatment.
How much will it cost?
The goal is to provide the best treatment at an affordable price. Prices vary depending on the area being treated and density of hairs. Please call for a consultation.
How many treatments will I need?
Most clients need about 6 treatments spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. Hair grows in cycles, therefore, several treatments are necessary in order to target all hair in any given area. You should see clearance 2-3 weeks after a treatment.
Are my results permanent?
Lasers will give you about a 65-85% permanent reduction. Each client's response can be different because of hair and/or skin type. Individuals have between 500 and 1000 follicles per square inch. Many are dormant at the time of treatment. There is no way to know if they may start growing due to stress, certain medications and hormone levels. However, with treatments and maintenance laser can remove the majority of coarse hair.
In order to achieve 100% clearance many people elect to follow up laser treatments with electrolysis treatments to remove any remaining fine hairs.
