What is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is a non invasive cosmetic treatment to permanently remove unwanted body hair.

The providers at The Center for Dermatology Cosmetic & Laser Surgery trust the LightSheer® technology, which uses light energy to destroy active hair follicles, so new hair can no longer grow.

Why should I consider laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is a great way to keep your body smooth and hair-free without the hassle of razors and messy waxes.

You can schedule laser hair removal sessions to eliminate unwanted hair on your:

  • Arms
  • Legs
  • Face
  • Neck
  • Back
  • Chest

While the LightSheer laser is powerful, it can still treat hair in sensitive parts of your body, including your bikini line and the area above your lip.

The providers at The Center for Dermatology Cosmetic & Laser Surgery can determine if laser hair treatments are right for you after an evaluation of your skin. The LightSheer technology is safe for both men and women of all skin types and tones.

What happens during laser hair removal?

During your laser hair removal appointment, your aesthetic specialist applies a handheld laser device to your skin. The LightSheer system delivers the light energy with pinpoint accuracy into the targeted hair follicles.

To keep you comfortable during your treatment, the providers use LightSheer proprietary ChillTip™ feature to regulate the light’s temperature.

Immediately after your treatment is complete, it’s common to feel some mild soreness or redness in the treatment area. These issues typically go away within 1-2 days.

Because laser treatments can make your skin more sensitive to the sun, you should wear high-quality sunscreen any time you’re outdoors and avoid direct sunlight in the days after your treatment.

How many laser hair treatments will I need?

Because the LightSheer technology can only treat hair in the active growth cycle, you’ll likely need 3-5 laser treatments spaced several weeks apart to achieve your desired results.

The providers at The Center for Dermatology Cosmetic & Laser Surgery can determine how many sessions you need based on the size of the area you’re treating and the thickness of your hair.
