What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is one of the most common elective aesthetic procedures around the world. It’s a convenient method for the long-term removal of unwanted hair follicles on the face and/or body. This treatment usually leaves the skin looking and feeling smoother while providing long-lasting results compared to other options for hair removal like waxing or plucking. Dr. Phing Saurer at River Park Dental and Esthetics carries out safe and fast laser hair removal in Dublin, OH for women and men in common areas (like the legs, arms, back, face, chest, armpits, and intimate areas) utilizing the efficient, next-generation Harmony XL PRO laser platform.
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
When you come in for your laser hair removal session, you will relax in one of our comfortable treatment rooms as the needed areas of your skin are cleaned to eliminate oil, dirt, and moisturizers. During the procedure, a team member will stretch out the skin to provide a direct pathway between the laser and the hair follicle root. The energy from the laser will focus on and kill the follicle, preventing the hair from growing again. Typically, you will need 3 – 5 treatments over a period of 3 – 4 weeks to achieve your optimal results. Your treatments are staggered to give the affected areas a chance to heal. This also allows time for follicles that were in the dormant phase to change to the active growth phase so they can be treated. The advanced Harmony XL PRO system we use at River Park Dental and Esthetics targets only the hair follicle, preserving the skin and other tissue in the treatment area.
