Laser hair removal: is it for you?

Living in such an idyllic part of the world, we’re blessed with beautiful weather all year round (mostly!) And while we enjoy baring our skin, maintaining smooth, hair-free skin can be a lot of work! Shaving, tweezing, plucking, waxing, hair-removal creams…there’s plenty of methods to help you stay hair-free but many are painful, time consuming, or the results don’t last long. So what to do? Try laser hair removal!

New generation lasers can treat unwanted hair for a fraction of the price of ongoing hair removal using other methods. Laser hair removal works simply and virtually painlessly to reduce hair growth. Unwanted hair is “beamed away” by directing concentrated light onto the hair follicle, destroying the hair’s ability to grow and leaving skin smooth and hair-free.

The benefits of laser include: 

• Precision: Lasers can selectively target hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged.
• Speed: Each pulse of the laser takes a fraction of a second and can treat many hairs at the same time
• Predictability: 90% of patients have permanent reduction after an average of three to five sessions.

At Esteem Medi Spa, laser technicians have been trained to use the latest Cutera Laser hair reduction system. Lasers are useful for removing unwanted hair from the face, leg, arm, underarm, bikini line, and other areas. Small areas such as the upper lip can be treated in less than a minute, and large areas, such as the back or legs, may take up to an hour and require a few sessions.

Designed with sensitive skin in mind, these lasers are safe enough to be used on any part of the body. It requires no down time, so you can return to work or play immediate following treatment.
