Achieve smoother, hair-free skin with our advanced laser hair removal treatments. Using the Syneron GentleMax Pro system, the gold standard for all skin types, our providers safely treat areas like the face, legs, underarms, back, and bikini for long-lasting results.
Reveal Smoother, Hair-free Skin
Laser hair removal is an FDA-approved treatment that permanently reduces or eliminates unwanted hair by targeting hair follicles with precise laser energy. The heat from the laser safely damages the hair follicles, preventing future growth. At our Spa Medicca practice, Dr. Brenner and her team use the Syneron GentleMax Pro system, the fastest dual-wavelength laser on the market, to deliver smooth, hair-free skin with minimal discomfort and downtime.
What Are Common Laser Hair Removal Treatment Areas?
- Face (chin, upper lip, sideburns)
- Underarms
- Arms and forearms
- Legs (full or partial)
- Bikini and Brazilian area
- Chest and abdomen
- Back and shoulders
- Buttocks
- Nipple area
- Neck and jawline
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Laser hair removal works by using concentrated light energy to target the pigment (melanin) in hair follicles. The light converts to heat, which safely damages the follicles responsible for hair growth without harming the surrounding skin. Over time, this process reduces the follicles’ ability to produce new hair. With each session, fewer hairs return, leaving your skin smoother and hair-free for longer compared to shaving or waxing.
Benefits of Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal offers a long-term solution for unwanted hair, helping you achieve smoother skin. It’s safe, precise, and effective for most skin types, reducing the need for constant shaving or waxing. Our advanced technology ensures comfort and efficiency.
Here are some of the main advantages:
- Quick treatments with minimal discomfort
- Long-lasting reduction in unwanted hair
- Safe for multiple skin tones and hair types
- No ingrown hairs or skin irritation
- Smoother, softer skin texture
- Cost-effective alternative to waxing or razors over time
Your Laser Hair Removal Session
Your session begins with your provider ensuring the treatment area is clean and prepared. Protective eyewear is provided, and a cooling spray or gel may be applied for comfort. Using the GentleMax Pro handpiece, your provider delivers controlled pulses of laser that feel similar to a quick rubber band snap. The laser targets your hair follicles, safely disabling their ability to regrow hair. Depending on the area, your session may take just minutes to complete.
Recovery and Results
After your laser hair removal session, you may notice mild redness or slight swelling, similar to a light sunburn. These side effects usually fade within a few hours. You can resume most normal activities right away, but it’s best to avoid hot showers for 24 to 48 hours and direct sun exposure for two weeks. Applying soothing aloe gel or a cool compress can help calm your skin.
You’ll begin to see treated hairs shed over the next one to three weeks. Noticeable hair reduction typically occurs after three to six sessions, spaced four to six weeks apart. Once your series is complete, you’ll enjoy smoother, hair-free skin that can last for months or even years, with only occasional maintenance treatments needed to preserve your beautiful results.
