How does laser hair removal work?
Laser hair removal works by damaging the hair follicle, providing semi-permanent results compared to waxing or shaving. The laser energy will focus on and disable the targeted hair follicles, which will prevent them from growing again. Hair growth is a cyclical pattern. Hairs in the dormant stage will be unaffected by treatment and will continue to grow when they are back in the active phase. If some hairs grow back, they are thinner in texture and easier to manage at home.
Is it safe for darker skin tones?
Our skilled skin care experts at RareV use Quanta EVO, Cyansure, Alma Harmony XL Pro technology to get rid of hair and leave skin feeling smoother than ever. Unlike more traditional methods of shaving, depilatory creams, or waxing, laser hair removal lasts longer and offers a semi-permanent answer, so you can ditch the razor or waxing appointments. At RareV, we use the latest laser hair removal technology, making it safe for all skin types. In the past, laser hair removal could be problematic for individuals with brown skin tones because the laser energy targets the pigment in the hair follicle and melanin in their skin. However, thanks to advancements in laser technology, there are now more effective and safer options available for patients with darker skin tones.
Is laser hair removal right for me?
Laser hair removal is one of the most popular cosmetic treatments performed in the United States. With exact precision, laser technology can target and damage unwanted hair follicles in various areas, such as the face, legs, back, chest, arms, underarms, and intimate areas, while leaving the surrounding skin untouched. Small areas, such as an upper lip or chin area, can be treated in less than five minutes, while larger target areas may take up to an hour. Since hair growth occurs in stages, some hair follicles may be dormant while others may be growing. At RareV, our skilled experts generally recommend 3 – 5 treatments over 3 – 4 weeks for optimal results, allowing dormant hair follicles to transition to an active growth phase. Ideal candidates for laser hair removal treatments are usually healthy men or women who are tired of traditional hair removal methods and are looking for a more long-term answer to reduce hair on their body or face.
