What Is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a cosmetic treatment that uses laser technology to remove unwanted body hair. The laser emits a highly concentrated beam of light, targeting the pigment in the hair follicle and damaging it, preventing future hair growth and resulting in permanent hair removal

How Does Laser Hair Removal in Dearborn Work?

During your laser hair removal appointment in Dearborn, your technician will pass the laser over the targeted treatment area. The lasers used for this procedure can target multiple hairs at once, making it an efficient option for larger areas such as the legs or back. However, multiple treatments are often necessary for optimal results as only actively growing hair follicles can be targeted during each session.

How You Can Prepare for Laser Hair Removal?

It is important to avoid plucking, waxing, or using any type of hair removal cream for at least six weeks before your appointment. This allows the hair follicle to be intact for the laser to target it effectively. Additionally, you should avoid direct sun exposure or artificial tanning for at least four weeks prior to treatment.

What Can You Expect From Your First Laser Hair Removal Treatment?

During your first treatment, there may be some discomfort as the laser is emitted into the skin. Some redness and swelling may also occur in the treated area, but this should subside shortly after the appointment.
