FAQ's

1. HOW DOES HAIR REMOVAL WORK

The lightsheer Diode laser emits near infrared laser light that is selectively absorbed by the dark pigment located in the hair follicle. The laser energy heats and destroys the hair follicle resulting in successful hair removal without causing damage to the surrounding tissue.

2. CAN ALL SKIN TYPES AND HAIR TYPES BE TREATED

All hair types with pigment can be treated. However, best results are obtained in light, untanned skin with dark hair.

3. HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE NEEDED

Laser works best on actively growing hair follicles. Only 15-20% hair follicles are in active phase of growth at any given time. Therefore, we recommend a series of five to ten treatments about 4-8 weeks apart. Some people may notice significant improvement in as little as 3 treatments.

4. WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED

Any area of body with hair growth can be treated. Commonly treated areas include the face , chin, lips, under arms , arms, back, chest, breasts, abdomen, bikini area, legs, hands and feet. Our Facility commonly treats both men and women.

5. WHAT HAPPENS DURING A LASER TREATMENT

The area to be treated is first shaved. You will be asked to wear dark glasses to protect your eyes. A cool gel is applied to the treatment area. The lightsheer Diode laser is then used to apply precisely controlled pulses of energy to heat and destroy the hair follicle.

Each pulse of laser feels like a snap of a rubber band or slight sting or pinch. No anesthesia is usually required and most people tolerate it well.

6. WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS

Slight redness of the skin lasting for 3-4 hrs is the most common side effect. You can return to work or your daily activities immediately after treatment. Sun exposure or tanning booths are to be avoided for few days before and after each treatment to obtain optimal results. Less common side effects include blistering and pigmentation. These are temporary and will disappear in few days. Permanent scarring is rare. A free consult and test spot is available before treatments are started.
