Unwanted body hair can be managed by shaving, tweezing, and waxing, but these methods are tedious and do not prevent the hair from regrowing. At Skin Deep consultation with Dr. Laura S. Riehm.
What is Laser Hair Removal?
The most comfortable and effective hair removal solution on the cosmetic market, laser hair removal not only removes existing hair, but it also prevents hair in treated areas from growing back.
At Skin Deep Laser MD, we use the Cynosure Vectus® Laser for hair removal. This fast, high-powered technology directs controlled pulses of laser light into the skin, which is absorbed by the pigment in the skin, disabling the hair follicle. The visible hair falls out on its own after laser hair removal, and the follicle is no longer able to support future regrowth.
What are the Benefits of Laser Hair Removal with the Cynosure Vectus®?
Choosing laser hair removal treatment with this advanced laser technology has several benefits:
- The Vectus® laser features the Skintel Melanin Reader, the only melanin reader approved by the FDA to accurately read your individual skin tone, ensuring a treatment that is tailored to your skin’s specific needs.
- The Advanced Contact Cooling system keeps the skin cool during treatment, increasing patient comfort
- The Vectus® has a uniform beam profile that efficiently treats multiple areas per second, protecting your skin from prolonged laser exposure and reducing treatment times.
- Laser hair removal treatment is safe for women with unwanted body hair as well as men who are interested in either eliminating or thinning out body hair
​​​​​​​Is Laser Hair Removal Safe?
After treatment, your skin may be slightly flushed or red akin to a sunburn, which should subside in a day or two and allow you to return to normal activities without any downtime. Laser hair removal with Vectus® is safe for all skin types, but men and women with skin infections or sores may require further evaluation before treatment is approved.
How Much Does Laser Hair Removal Cost?
As with many procedures, the cost will vary depending on the individual patient's needs and desires. It is normal to charge per area, with larger areas of the body costing more than a smaller areas like the bikini area. Laser hair removal for men, especially when we are talking about the back can be more expensive but the results can be amazing. Just imagine not having to worry about waxing or shaving week after week month after month! The denser the hair in an area the more return treatments will be needed. So just as with any treatment pricing can vary widely, but worth every penny in considering the time and cost associated with caring for the area repeatedly to say nothing of how amazing you will look and feel every day Contact us today to schedule a consultation and discover the benefits of laser hair removal.
