Generally, laser hair removal is far less painful than waxing, though the sensation is different. Patients describe the feeling of each laser pulse like that of a rubber band snapping against the skin for a quick second. Pain is only felt briefly while the laser is hitting the skin. Since each laser pulse effectively destroys all the hair in a given area of roughly the size of a quarter, the treatments are fast. Most people do not require an anesthetic cream, though one can be prescribed to more sensitive patients if requested.

For a day or two afterward, the treated area of your skin will look and feel like itís sunburned. Cool compresses and moisturizers may help. Over the next month, your treated hair will fall out. Wear sunscreen for the following month to help prevent temporary changes in the color of the treated skin.

Laser hair removal is more than just "zapping" unwanted hair. It is a medical procedure that requires training and experience to provide optimum results. Body Details has treated thousands of patients since we opened in March of 2006, and we are experts at the services we provide. When planning to undergo laser hair removal treatment, you should stop plucking, waxing for six weeks before treatment. True Laser targets the hairs' roots, which are temporarily removed by waxing or plucking and will thereby render treatment ineffective. You may shave as often as you'd like leading up to your treatment date. You should also avoid sun exposure in the treatment area for six weeks before and after treatment whenever possible. Sun exposure makes laser hair removal less effective and makes complications after treatment more likely. You know your body best. Avoid scheduling treatments until you have cycled through any tan you may have previously received.

For the vast majority of people, the answer is YES! At Body Details, we can treat women and men of all ethnicities and skin types. Lasers are attracted to the hair's pigment, so if you have white hair or very light blonde hair, that hair may not be treatable. However, it is best to schedule a free virtual consultation to determine whether or not your hair is treatable. As a general rule, the best results are seen by those with thick dark hair and light skin. Still, True Laser technology is optimized for each individual's unique skin type and thereby offers safe and permanent results for virtually all skin tones and hair thicknesses with the exception of fine vellus hairs, aka Peach Fuzz. Laser hair removal is most commonly performed on the underarms, legs, bikini area, upper lip, chin, abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs, neck, chest, and arms.

Have you ever wondered how laser hair removal works? Laser hair removal works by using wavelengths of light to destroy melanin. Laser stands for Light Amplification through the Stimulated Emission of Radiation. True Lasers are designed for permanent hair reduction and emit wavelengths of light that are absorbed by the pigment of the hair, also known as melanin. Lasers can effectively destroy hair without damaging the surrounding skin because the hair shaft (hair itself) absorbs all laser energy. This is why treatments are most effective on coarse hair, which has a lot of pigment for the laser to target and can absorb a substantial amount of laser energy. Fine hair such as peach fuzz cannot absorb much heat and has less pigment. All Body Details True Laser devices release a cryogenic coolant spray during each laser pulse to minimize any discomfort from the heated hair. Intense Pulse Light (IPL) machines are NOT lasers. These machines do not use a set wavelength of light and are not optimized for either skin type or any particular service. IPL devices lack a True Laser's ability to produce a set, focused wavelength of light that will only affect the hair shaft known as selective photothermolysis. IPL devices have a wide bandwidth of light that can heat up all of the surrounding tissue, making it less effective in disabling hair and putting the patient at a higher risk for burns, especially on darker skin.IPL devices are generally cheaper than True Laser devices, which is why many clinics choose to use them. True Lasers achieve better and faster results than IPL devices. One of the best things about laser treatment is knowing laser hair removal isn't painful!
