Benefits Of Professional Laser Hair Removal

August 19, 2022

By :

We all have unwanted hair that is a continual tedious process to remove. If you are fed up with tweezing, inconvenient wax appointments, and spending far too much on razor blades, creams, and lotions — it’s time to consider professional laser hair removal.

From legs to underarms, full-body laser hair removal is the quick and permanent solution to hair removal that will save you money in the long run.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?

A certified technician does this multiple-session process. A session can be as short as a few minutes or take up to an hour. Through repeated exposure to the skin by Intense Pulsed Light (IPl), laser hair removal destroys the hair follicles in the skin, preventing further hair growth in multiple areas of the body. This treatment is effective on every hair type.

The benefits of laser hair removal are increasing in popularity, and if you are tired of your current hair removal process, you should consider this option.

Here’s why…

Precise and Smooth Results 

Advanced technology allows for an impeccably precise process, making laser hair removal ideal for specific areas such as the upper lips, nose, or eyebrows. 

This treatment’s preciseness leaves you with perfectly smooth skin as the treatments are incredibly accurate and reduce irritation.

Options for Any Area

One misconception about professional laser hair removal is that for sensitive areas or thick hair, laser hair removal is not a valid option. This is not true. Technology has drastically changed over the years! We can now remove hair from even the most delicate areas with far less irritation than waxing or other methods. 

Even the coarsest or darkest of hairs can be removed with professional laser hair removal, and your options and treatment plan can be discussed with your technician. 

It’s Quick and Involves Minimal Pain

Contrary to what people think, laser hair removal is far LESS painful than other hair removal methods. The sessions are fast and a relatively painless process. Unlike waxing, which rips the hair out of the follicle, the laser that runs across the skin has been described as slightly uncomfortable but comparable to the feeling of a rubber band snapping against the skin — so not too bad!

For more sensitive areas such as the face or bikini line, laser treatments are far less painful, taking only a few moments. 

Prevents Ingrown Hairs

Shaving and waxing are known to trigger the risk of ingrown hairs by removing hair at the surface level, causing irritation. Full body laser hair removal treatment completely eliminates this issue because it guarantees hair removal at the follicle level, which means there is ZERO chance for ingrown hairs.

Eliminate Fast-Regrowth

No matter how hard you try, shaving causes your hair to grow thicker, and regrowth is an annoying inconvenience even with waxing. Imagine enjoying smooth, razor bump-free skin all the time. No longer will you have to be inconvenienced by a last-minute shave or wax for an event. 

It’s a Long-term Solution

Arguably the best benefit of professional laser hair removal, unlike waxing, creams, or shaving, laser hair removal is permanent. The process has been shown to remove over 75% of hair permanently. 

In rare cases, you may have to go in a few months later for touch-ups in tricky areas, but the results have shown that long-term, it is the best solution to hair removal.

Saves You Money 

Even when you factor in your investment for each laser treatment you’ll need, the investment pays for itself in the long run! Think about it, 6-8 treatments OR years of expensive razors, waxing, shaving creams, hair removal creams, lotions to protect skin from razor rash, and even more skin care products on top of that? 

Once your treatments are finished you will never have to schedule another wax appointment or endure endless supplies again! Laser hair removal aftercare is a thing, but far less complex than most aftercare routines. You can expect to leave your appointment with a lotion or two.

When you evaluate the benefits of laser hair removal you can’t afford NOT to get it. Imagine hair removal without the repeated cost and hassle — and once you’re done, you’re done!

Staff Manager

Angel has been in healthcare for more than 20 years. Her journey began in 2004, after her father suddenly passed away from a stroke. Losing him was a life-changing experience, and it inspired her to choose a career where she could help others and give patients and their families the care, compassion, and support they need during difficult times.

Throughout her career she has worked across cardiology, neurology, family practice, and urgent care — each experience helping her grow both personally and professionally. She now works in vascular care and aesthetics, where she enjoys building relationships with her patients, helping them understand their care, and making sure they feel comfortable and supported throughout their journey.

Outside of work, Angel is a proud mom of two. Family is incredibly important to her, and in her spare time she loves being outdoors with her husband and their two dogs — hunting, fishing, and enjoying Colorado.

For Angel, healthcare is more than a career — it is personal. What started as a way to honor her father’s memory has become more than two decades of caring for others, and she is grateful to keep doing something that means so much to her every day.
