Old Methods
of Hair Removal
top
of page
Shaving, plucking, waxing and depilatory creams
provide temporary fixes that are inconvenient,
irritating, messy and only temporary. Electrolysis
is time consuming, sometimes painful, and is
useful only in removing hair from small areas.
Our services for laser hair removal in Los Angeles
provide a better way!
Excess Hair: A Common
Problem for Both Men & Women
top
of page
Excess and unwanted hair is a common problem.
Women frequently experience this condition on
the face, especially the upper lip or eyebrow
area, in the bikini area, under the arms or
on the legs. Men often wish to rid themselves
of hair on their back or chest. They too may
have unwanted hair between their eyebrows or
on other parts of their face. Our laser hair
removal in Los Angeles can help.
New Solutions:
Laser Hair Removal for Safe, Gentle, Permanent
Hair Reduction
top
of page
Advanced technology lasers and light sources
are rapidly changing hair removal treatment,
providing gentle, non-invasive and long-lasting
solutions to unwanted hair. Among laser and
light-based devices, the LightSheer™ Diode
Laser System provides a safe, effective solution
for both men and women. The laser uses targeted
flashes of light to block the regrowth potential
of the hair follicle. Our permanent Laser Hair
Removal treatments do not damage surrounding
tissue, and targets numerous hair follicles
simultaneously, allowing for the treatment of
large areas quickly and effectively.
The LightSheer Diode Laser Hair Removal System
is one of the most efficient options available
for light-based treatment of unwanted hair.
Numerous published studies in professional medical
journals attest to the LightSheer system's safety
and long-term effectiveness.
Unlike other hair removal tools, our Los Angeles
laser hair removal procedure using the LightSheer
system incorporates the ChillTip™ technology
, which continuously cools the skin. This proprietary
feature helps to:
Maximize the effectiveness of the treatment
Minimize any discomfort
Allow for treatment of all skin types
Another key advantage of our laser hair removal
process is the LightSheer system technology,
which has been proven effective on a wide range
of hair colors, from blonde through auburn to
brown and dark black hair. Most importantly,
LightSheer systems successfully remove hair
from all skin types — from porcelain white
through olive to dark brown complexions, including
tanned skin. Hair can be treated on any part
of the body, no matter how deep the follicles
may reside with this Los Angeles laser hair
removal technique. Treatment of sensitive areas
like the lips, ears, nose, underarms and bikini
line can usually be tolerated easily.
Another key advantage of our laser hair removal
process is the LightSheer system's large treatment
area, enabling the device to cover more area
in substantially less time. In fact, approximately
100 - 200 hairs can be treated with each zap
of the laser, so that large swaths of hair on
the legs, back and chest can be treated quickly
in a single session. At the same time, LightSheer
can be very precisely focused, so that hair
is eliminated from delicate places.
Multiple treatment sessions are typically required
for permanent hair reduction with our innovative
laser hair removal in Los Angeles.
Do Laser Hair Removal
Treatments Hurt?
top
of page
Our treatments for laser hair removal may cause
some minor discomfort — patients often
describe it as a slight tingling or compare
it to a pinch or the sting of a snapped rubber
band. Most patients tolerate the procedure well;
topical anesthesia is rarely required, but may
be an option when treating more sensitive areas.
How long
do Los Angeles Laser Hair Removal treatments
last? How many will I need?
top
of page
Laser hair removal sessions can last from a
few minutes to more than an hour, depending
on the size of the area being treated.
The number of treatments required depends on
several factors related to specific skin types
and color, thickness and density of hair. Cosmetique
Med Spa offers customized treatments for laser
hair removal in Los Angeles based on individual
needs, and gives each patient an estimate of
how many sessions will likely be needed in order
to meet their expectations. It is important
to understand that hairs in an active growth
phase (anagen) are most affected by treatments.
Since all hairs are not in this phase at the
same time, several treatments are necessary
to achieve the best results.
