Laser Hair Removal Overview
Laser hair removal is an innovative, simple, and non-invasive alternative to shaving or waxing. The highly skilled Registered Nurses at Dr. Aycock’s practice will use targeted laser light to disrupt hair growth. The light will affect the melanin compound contained in hair follicles, transmitting the heat through the hair strand, damaging the follicle. By doing so, laser hair treatment permanently inhibits and prevents the growth of hair.
Laser hair removal is a gentle enough treatment that is suitable for any body part. However, most women opt to treat legs, face, bikini line, or arms, while back, chest, and shoulders are common treatment areas for men.
The team at Dr. Aycock’s practice answers all of your questions and helps you prepare for the treatment. Depending on the area you wish to treat, the whole process won’t last longer than a few minutes, is painless, and has no downtime. The results of laser hair removal treatments are long-lasting, but you might require more than one session.
3 Reasons to Try Laser Hair Removal
There are endless benefits to laser hair removal, including providing a simple, permanent, and affordable alternative to shaving, epilating, or waxing. Here are the three main reasons to try this treatment, but don’t forget that it can also enhance your appearance, increase your self-confidence, and give you the freedom you deserve.
Laser Hair Removal Saves Time
A self-care routine is crucial to our wellbeing – but shaving and waxing are certainly not the most exciting activities to dedicate yourself to each morning. Studies estimate that over 20 years, the average person spends over 800 hours shaving and 120 hours waxing.
Laser hair removal treatments can cut this time down to 27 hours over 20 years – and often delivers much better results!
Waxing and shaving can famously lead to ingrown air, reddened areas, irritation, spots, and dry skin. Oppositely, by targeting the root of the problem – the follicle – laser hair removal eliminates this problem altogether!
Laser Hair Removal is Long-Lasting
During laser hair removal, the aesthetic nurse specialist at Dr. Robert Aycock’s practice will inactivate the hair-producing follicles, delivering immediate, long-lasting results. However, at the time of treatment, some of your skin follicles will be dormant, so you will need a cycle of four to eight sessions to inhibit hair growth altogether.
Over time, you might need a touch-up – but after your initial sessions, you won’t need another appointment for over 12 months!
Laser Hair Removal is Affordable
We often don’t realize how much we are spending on hair removal treatments. Statistics show that over 20 years, the average person spends over $15,000 in waxing appointments and $2,500 for shaving. While many people might be initially put off by the upfront cost of laser hair removal, over time, this can save you up to $8,000 – depending on the laser hair removal treatment cost.
Am I a Candidate for Laser Hair Removal?
If you have unwanted body hair and you wish to find a long-lasting solution to regain your self-confidence, you are likely to be a great candidate for laser hair removal. However, if you have doubts about your eligibility, Dr. Robert Aycock and his team will answer all of your questions and confirm that you are the right candidate for this treatment.
