Laser Hair Removal

Not all hair removal lasers work equally well. Medical-grade differs greatly from spa and aesthetic grade and not all technology is suitable for every person. Having a basic understanding of how laser hair removal works and what to expect will save you money, time and possibly disappointment. Depending on the thickness of the hair, the colour of the hair, the depth of the follicles, and how much natural pigment is in your skin, we chose the device that will work best for you.

We believe the Lightsheer Duet is the best choice for laser hair removal. That’s why we invested in one. 

​

One of the most frequently asked questions is whether laser hair removal is permanent. The FDA has given the Lightsheer® approval for permanency.

 

In layman’s terms:

​

• Both electrolysis and the LightSheer® offer permanent hair removal, or more correctly, permanent hair reduction.

• Hair follicles go through cycles of growth, decay, and rest. Only hair in the active growth phase can be treated.

• During any treatment (laser or electrolysis) session, a number of follicles are destroyed permanently. But the hair in rest phase, and hence not visible at the time of the session, are not destroyed. These will start to grow at the end of their rest phase.

• The net result is that the number of hairs in the treatment area has been reduced and the reduction is permanent.

• Subsequent treatments will reduce the remaining hair in the area even further. The number of treatment sessions required to remove all unwanted hair in an area varies from person to person.
