If you’re not happy with shaving, tweezing, or waxing to remove unwanted\u00a0hair,\u00a0laser hair removal\u00a0may be an option worth considering.\u00a0Laser hair removal (LHR) is one of the fastest-growing methods of ridding the body of unwanted hair. The appeal of laser hair removal stems from its effectiveness, efficiency and convenience. It can be performed virtually anywhere on the body where you experience unwanted\u00a0hair growth. Another reason for its popularity is that laser hair removal can\u00a0result\u00a0in permanent reduction of the hair.<\/p>\n
How It Works:<\/strong> The Benefits:<\/strong><\/p>\n How To Prepare:<\/strong><\/p>\n If you are planning on undergoing LHR\u00a0you should limit waxing, threading, sugaring, tweezing & hair removal creams\u00a0for six weeks before treatment. That’s because the laser targets the hairs’ roots, which are temporarily removed by other hair removal procedures.<\/p>\n Within 24 hours of your session, you should be sure to shave the area, as this will leave just enough hair visible to the laser. Even though it won’t be visible to you, the laser will still be able to target the follicle, and you can reduce your risk of burns by keeping hair below the skin’s surface.<\/p>\n We cannot treat anyone with a tan, real or fake. Sun exposure and tanned skin makes LHR\u00a0less effective and makes complications after treatment more likely.<\/p>\n Some medications can interfere with LHR\u00a0or make your skin more sensitive to treatment. This doesn’t mean you need to stop taking medication or refuse what your doctor prescribes, but it’s important to inform our medical esthetician on what medications you have recently taken.<\/p>\n Do not bleach your hair as there\u2019s no pigment in bleached hair for the laser to target.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n How Many Sessions\u00a0Will You Need?<\/strong><\/p>\n Multiple treatments are needed (between 6-8) because only hair in the active growth phase, or \u201canagen\u201d phase can be affected by the laser. Time is needed for hairs in the Catagen & Telogen phases to move into the Anagen face. Effective results require treatments spread evenly. We recommend once every 4 weeks to remove facial hair and every 6-8 weeks to remove body hair.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t spend another day waxing, shaving, or investing in electrolysis treatments. If you\u2019re tired of at home treatments or salon treatments that are ineffective at permanent hair removal,\u00a0make an appointment at Pure Spa and Salon<\/a>. We specialize in laser hair removal treatments for men and women in the Dallas area.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If you’re not happy with shaving, tweezing, or waxing to remove unwanted\u00a0hair,\u00a0laser hair removal\u00a0may be an option worth considering.\u00a0Laser hair removal (LHR) is one of the fastest-growing methods of ridding the body of unwanted hair.

\nA laser focuses light energy of a specific wavelength into a narrow beam.\u00a0The laser light penetrates the skin\u00a0disabling the hair follicle without damaging the surrounding tissue. Hair follicles that are in an active growth phase and with sufficient pigmentation will be destroyed by the absorbed laser energy.<\/p>\n\n
