What Is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a method of permanently reducing unwanted hair growth using targeted beams of light. The light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicles, disabling their ability to grow new hairs.

How Does Laser Hair Removal in San Antonio Work?

At LightRx in San Antonio, we use state-of-the-art technology to target and disable unwanted hair growth. Our trained technicians carefully adjust the laser settings based on your skin and hair type, ensuring maximum effectiveness with minimal discomfort.

How You Can Prepare for Laser Hair Removal

Prior to your treatment at LightRx in San Antonio, we recommend avoiding sun exposure for four weeks before your appointment. This will ensure that the laser can accurately target the hair follicles without damaging the surrounding skin. It is also important that you avoid plucking, waxing, and electrolysis in the treatment area for six weeks prior to your appointment.

What You Can Expect from Your First Laser Hair Removal Treatment

During your first laser hair removal treatment at LightRx in San Antonio, your technician will test a small area to ensure the appropriate settings for your skin and hair type. You may experience some mild discomfort during treatment, but it is typically well-tolerated. After your first treatment, you can expect to see a noticeable reduction in hair growth, with optimal results appearing after multiple sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Below you will find the answers to questions our team hears most often about laser hair removal. Please contact LightRx in San Antonio if you have any questions or concerns not listed here. 

Is Laser Hair Removal Safe for Everyone?

Laser hair removal is generally safe for most skin types and colors. However, it may not be appropriate for individuals with certain medical conditions or those who are taking certain medications. Our trained technicians at LightRx in San Antonio can assess your individual needs and determine if laser hair removal is right for you.

What Is the Total Cost of Laser Hair Removal in San Antonio?

The total cost of laser hair removal at LightRx in San Antonio will vary depending on the size and number of treatment areas. Our trained staff can provide an individualized quote during your consultation.

Is There an Age Restriction for Laser Hair Removal?

At LightRx in San Antonio, we typically recommend waiting until an individual has reached puberty before undergoing laser hair removal. This ensures that the treatment will be most effective as hormonal changes can affect hair growth patterns.

How Is Laser Hair Removal Different from Electrolysis?

Unlike electrolysis which uses an electrical current to target and disable individual hairs, laser hair removal uses targeted beams of light to disable multiple hairs at once. Laser hair removal is often faster and more comfortable than electrolysis, with longer-lasting results.

How Long Do Laser Hair Removal Results Last?

The results of laser hair removal at LightRx in San Antonio can be long-lasting, with many patients experiencing permanent hair removal. However, it is important to note that hormonal changes or medical conditions can affect hair growth patterns, and some touch-up treatments may be necessary. Our trained technicians will work with you to maintain your desired results.
