FAQs: Laser Hair Removal in College Station, Texas at Artisan’s Rejuvenation Med Spa
What is laser hair removal?
From creams and gels to waxes and special razors, there are many conventional methods to getting rid of unwanted body hair. These solutions not only take regular maintenance, they can also create uncomfortable ingrown hairs, razor burn and general skin irritation. Laser hair removal goes where other hair removal treatments cannot – underneath the skin to treat unwanted body hair at its source. At Artisan’s Rejuvenation Med Spa, we use the Icon laser, a light-based therapy that targets follicles at the source to reduce hair growth. Icon is a quick, gentle treatment that is safe and effective for larger areas of the body. During treatment, all that is felt is the warm, soothing laser.
How does laser hair removal work?
The high-intensity controlled laser energy is non-ablative, meaning it penetrates into deeper tissue layers without damaging or injuring the surface of the skin. Pulses of laser energy are emitted into the skin via a handheld device, where the energy is converted into heat. The dark pigments of the hair follicles are targeted and gently heated, disabling the follicles and preventing future hair regrowth.
How many laser hair removal treatments will I need?
As the growth cycle of body hair happens in three stages, it may take multiple treatment sessions for all of the hair in a treated area to be effectively disabled, depending on the size of the area. Laser hair removal is currently one of the most permanent solutions on the market for long-term results and silky, worry-free skin. Depending on the size of your treatment area and other factors, our medical team will advise you on how many sessions you may need in order to achieve your desired results.
Are there any side effects?
The skin may appear slightly flushed or pink after treatment, which should subside after a day or so. Our advanced laser technology has built-in safety features that prevent any damage or overheating of the skin for professional, predictable results you can trust from a medical team that has extensive training in this procedure.
