How Long Does Laser Hair Removal Take?

How_Long_Does_Laser_Hair_Removal_Take_637968371655988113

Are you frustrated by the short-lived results of shaving and the discomfort of waxing? Why not consider a treatment to help you get smooth, hair-free skin that lasts? At Rejuvené MD of El Paso, TX, we’d be happy to answer any questions you have about laser hair removal.

How Long Does Laser Hair Removal Take?

The treatment time of laser hair removal will vary depending on how large of an area you’d like to address. Small areas like the chin or upper lip could take as little as 5 to 10 minutes. Other areas could be done in 30 minutes, while large areas may take an hour.

Once we know the area you’re looking into, we’ll be able to give you a clearer time estimate. During your appointment, you may want to bring along your favorite book, podcast, or music so you can make the most of the time and enjoy yourself. Since each patient is an individual, you may find that your timeline varies slightly. That said, most patients will start to notice their treated hair thinning or falling out within a few weeks of their first session.

An Outpatient Treatment

We carry out treatment right here in our comfortable and welcoming office environment. Since this is an outpatient treatment, you’ll be able to leave and get back to your daily schedule once your session is complete. Treatments that allow patients this freedom can be a great fit for a modern, busy life, where everyone has to make the most of their time.

It can also make sessions easier to schedule since patients know they won’t have to sacrifice a whole day to receive their treatment.

How Does It Work?

Our Laser

We believe in using reliable, safe, cutting-edge technology. That’s why we use the SPLENDOR X device to carry out our hair removal treatments. Since this laser combines various wavelengths, it’s able to more effectively treat a wide range of clients.

This laser uses square technology. That means the laser energy is delivered in a more uniform, thorough, and consistent manner when compared to some alternative lasers.

The Process

Once we determine that you’re a good candidate, we can work with you to set up a personalized treatment plan. This will be based on the area you’re treating, your hair growth cycle, your cosmetic goals, your skin tone, and your hair type.

This treatment works by damaging the treated hair follicles. It delivers energy that the follicles absorb. This energy is translated to heat, which is able to destroy or greatly reduce the follicles’ ability to produce hair. Due to how the lasers are programmed, your follicles can be targeted while keeping your skin safe in the process.

The Results

Laser hair treatments are able to provide powerful, lasting results. That said, it’s important to be realistic about the treatment. We carry out this treatment with the goal of permanently reducing hair production throughout the treated area. That means even if you do have occasional hair growth, the treatment will have reduced the growth rate and thickness of the treated area.

To give you the best chance at lasting results, we may recommend a treatment series.

Your Series

A treatment series is especially helpful for large areas. A series reflects the fact that our hair grows in continuous cycles. Each treatment, spaced appropriately apart, will help target the active follicles throughout the area.

How many treatments you’ll need and how long they’re spaced apart will be partly determined by your hair growth rate. Most patients find that six to nine treatments are enough to give them thoroughly lasting results.

Am I a Good Candidate?

Powerful Range

As laser technology improves, so does our ability to serve a wide range of patients and hair types. The SPLENDOR X laser is able to treat a variety of skin tones, setting it apart from other outdated laser systems. The best way to know if this laser is a good fit for your skin tone and hair type is to visit us for a consultation.

We want to set each of our clients up for success. If we don’t think this laser is going to give you amazing results, we’ll let you know. We offer a wide range of cosmetic treatments in our office to help our patients look and feel their best, so if you’re interested in another cosmetic treatment as well, we can talk about our different options with you.

What Benefits Can I Expect?

Time Savings

Once you’ve completed your series, you’ll be able to enjoy freedom from constantly shaving. Even waxing, while it lasts longer than shaving, takes up time and effort regardless of whether you wax yourself or get it done professionally.

During busy times, it can help reduce stress to know that no matter how crazy things get, your unwanted hair will be taken care of. This can be especially helpful if you’ve been feeling rushed since rushing through shaving or waxing could put you at an increased risk of accidental burns and cuts.

Long-Term Effects

At best, a close shave can offer smooth skin for a day or two, but stubble will make a quick comeback. At worst, shaving can leave you with ingrown hair and skin irritations, so even if you’re able to get rid of the hair, you may have bumps left afterward.

Laser hair removal is known to produce skin that’s both smooth and hairless. With your unwanted hair taken care of, you’ll be able to rush out the door without worrying about missing a patch or forgetting to shave.

Better Spontaneity

Life is busy, and finding the time to enjoy your hobbies or just unwind can be difficult. If you find yourself with some extra time and want to shoot down to the beach or go spend time with your friends, the last thing you want to worry about is having to shave and lose some of that valuable downtime. This treatment will help you be ready at a moment’s notice.

Comfort

Many methods of hair removal put you at risk for ingrown hair. These painful inflammations can be itchy. Since they’re often red and inflamed, it also affects the texture and appearance of the shaved area.

Laser hair removal doesn’t cause ingrown hairs. To make the benefit even better, it can actually be used to treat ingrown hairs. Many patients have tried many different methods to reduce or remove ingrown hairs with limited success. This treatment can help you finally conquer ingrown hairs.

What Areas Can Be Treated?

The Arms

This treatment has a lot of range. If you’re interested in treating an area that isn’t listed here, feel free to ask us about it.

With that said, the arms and underarms are common areas to treat. Many patients want to either thin out or eliminate the hair on their arms to improve their confidence. Treating the underarms can save time shaving and may help improve body odor.

The Bikini Area

The bikini area can be difficult for some patients to shave or wax due to the skin’s sensitivity. If you struggle with ingrown hairs or skin irritation when you shave this area, laser removal could be a good alternative for you.

The Chest and Back

Patients of any gender can benefit from permanent hair reduction. If you have chest or back hair that’s affecting your confidence, we’d be happy to help. These areas can be almost impossible to completely shave, and very difficult to wax on your own. That means patients who struggle with unwanted chest and back hair could be great candidates for this treatment.

The Legs

This has to be one of the most popular areas to treat, probably since it’s one of the most common areas to shave. Legs tend to take a long time to shave. For patients who don’t want leg hair, staying on top of the growth is a never-ending cycle. If you’ve been endlessly shaving for years, maybe it’s time to consider giving yourself a break.

Ready for Your Consultation?

Once we know the areas you’d like to treat, we’ll take a look at the health of your skin and talk through your goals. After that, we’ll be able to offer you more specific answers and advice. If you would like more information about this treatment, reach out to us at Rejuvené MD of El Paso, TX, to set up your consultation and discover the many benefits of laser hair removal.
