Laser hair removal procedure:
Hair growth is a cycle, and to zap all hair regardless of the stage of growth, you will be asked to shave prior to treatment, ensuring the laser works on the root.
Approximately 2-3 weeks after the treatment, you will notice hairs appearing but don’t worry! This doesn’t mean that the procedure has failed, in fact it’s quite the opposite, if you pull on these hairs, you’ll notice they simply fall out, never to return-this is the body pushing away the hair and ridding it for good.
The number of treatments a patient will need to undergo depends on the area being treated, the hair and skin color, and the hair thickness. Typically, full results require a series of sessions typically five to eight sessions are needed for the best outcome.
Here at Glam Glow Med Spa our experienced technicians will conduct a thorough examination and discuss each patient’s unique concerns and goals in order to create a personalized treatment plan.
