What is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal technology started to gain popularity in the late 1990’s, and since then the technology has continued to be consistently improved and refined – today it is a safe, effective, and pain-free method for getting rid of unwanted, unsightly hair.

Laser hair removal uses a concentrated beam of light to remove unwanted hair on the face and body. During the procedure, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the hair. The intensity and heat of the light energy damages the hair follicles within the skin, inhibiting future hair growth. Laser Hair Removal can be used anywhere on the body that you have unwanted hair.

What are the Benefits of Laser Hair Removal?

Other than the obvious benefit of smoother, clearer, hair-free skin, did you know that there are other benefits to ‘going under the laser’? Laser hair removal can actually help reduce the occurrence of painful in-grown hairs, which can lead to less skin irritation over time. In-grown hairs are often a frequent annoyance for those who shave or wax their body hair, and happens when the hair grows back into your skin, instead of rising up through it. Because laser hair removal encourages the hair to grow straight, the occurrence of ingrown hairs is greatly reduced.

What Can You Expect From Your Treatment?

How is Our Approach Different?

Pain-Free, Hair-Free™ breaks the mold of previous laser hair removal systems. The system’s unique IN-Motion™ technology, along with the sweeping motion of the laser, safely and gently heats the targeted area under your skin while you stay comfortable.

Virtually pain-free

Most people find Pain-Free, Hair-Free very comfortable. While pain tolerance is subjective, many patients often describe the sensation as soothing as a “hot stone massage.”

How Does it Work?

Pain-Free, Hair-Free works by using pulses of infrared diode laser energy to gradually heat the hair follicles in the subdermal layer of skin until they can no longer produce new hair. Using unique, IN-Motion™ technology and a patented DualChill™ treatment tip, the surface of your skin stays cool and comfortable. The sweeping motion also eliminates any skipped or missed spots common to other types of laser hair removal.

Hair removal is one of the aesthetic medical industry’s most well-known and researched uses of lasers. Pain-Free, Hair-Free‘s Soprano^®XL laser has provided permanent hair reduction for thousands of patients worldwide, safely and successfully since it was cleared by the FDA in 2005.

How many treatments will I need?

There are a number of factors that can affect the success of a series of hair removal treatments, but generally, after each treatment, you’ll see a noticeable, permanent reduction in the number of hairs that regrow in the treatment area. Typically, it will require 4 – 6 treatments or more to permanently reduce the number of regrowing hairs by more than 80%, six months after the last treatment.

Will my hair ever grow back?

The short answer is no. Once the hair follicle is damaged, it cannot grow new hair. However, there are invariably a few hair follicles that manage to partially escape the laser during each treatment. Some of these follicles may be only stunned and will need to be retreated.

Do I need to plan for time off, for the treatments?

No. Pain-Free, Hair-Free requires no “down time” or recovery time. You can have a treatment and return to work or school immediately.

How do I know it won’t hurt?

Most people find Pain-Free, Hair-Free very comfortable. While pain tolerance is subjective, many patients often describe the sensation as soothing as a “hot stone massage.” If you find it otherwise, talk with your doctor or laser technician.
