PERMANENT HAIR REDUCTION
Laser Hair Removal
At Renew + Refresh Medical spa we treat all of our laser hair removal patients with LightSheer Diode Laser. LightSheer uses clinically proven diode laser technology to permanently remove unwanted hair, comfortably and effectively. Diode lasers work by using a single wavelength of light that has a high abruption rate in melanin (a dark brown to black pigment occurring in the hair). As the melanin heats up it destroys the root and blood flow to the follicle disabling the hair growth permanently.
What to Expect
Before arriving to your treatment, shave the area that will be treated. You need to ensure you have not had sun exposure or a tan of any kind, including self tanner. We want to ensure the laser is seeking the melanin in your hair follicle and not at the surface of your skin.
Immediately after your treatment your skin may be red and warm, similar to that of a mild sun exposure. With the exception of SPF sunscreen, keep the skin clean of lotions and/or creams for 24 hours after treatment. Avoid rigorous exercise, excessive sweating, hot tubs or hot baths for 24 hours. Over the next 7-10 days you will notice your hair will grow in the normal growth process at which time it will shed itself and you will be left with smooth, hair free skin.
Cycle of Hair Growth
We recommend 4-6 treatments of laser hair removal for permanent reduction in hair growth depending on your hair type and overall goal. Why? The hair goes through 4 stages of growth: anagen, catagen, telogen, and return to anagen. Laser hair removal only destroys follicles in the anagen phase. Since we cannot see what stage each hair follicle is in we schedule appointments based on typical hair growth patterns. We want to ensure we capture the hair follicle in its beginning stage to prevent future growth. It is not uncommon for hair to grow back “patchy” as it finds different hairs in different stages of hair growth. You will see a great reduction of hair growth in just one treatment!
*It is important to note that hormonal changes such as pregnancy & menopause can regenerate hair to the anagen phase.
