Maybe the warming weather has you excited for the fun activities that spring and summer bring. Or maybe it has you lamenting that you can’t hide your hair under pants and sweaters anymore.
If you’re tired of shaving, waxing, tweezing, or threading, you should know that you have a different path to smoother skin.
Elaine Phuah, DO, MBA, FACOI, and our team provide laser hair reduction here at Hanami Medspa in Fort Worth, Texas. With this innovative treatment, we use laser energy to destroy hair follicles. That gives you long-lasting hair reduction.
And there’s no time like the present to get started.
At Hanami Medspa, we use the Neo Elite® 650 microsecond Nd:YAG 1064 laser for lasting hair reduction. This laser works by picking out your hair, then directing energy into it. This heats the hair follicle to the point that it’s destroyed.
The Neo Elite laser works on all skin tones and is designed with your comfort in mind. Additionally, our team offers skin-cooling or topical anesthetics to help with discomfort. Most people describe the laser treatment as a quick snap of a rubber band against the skin.
Laser hair reduction works for hair follicles that are active at the time of treatment. Not all follicles are active all the time. We schedule repeat sessions to target as many of your follicles as possible.
Most people need 2–6 sessions, spaced 4–12 weeks apart.
Because it takes multiple sessions to get optimal results, you need to get started now if you want notable hair reduction by summer.
Additionally, for the laser to work optimally, you want maximum contrast between your skin and hair color. That means you need to avoid sun exposure on any areas you want to treat. Visiting us now, before you’re spending more time outside, helps you get optimal results.
The results of laser hair reduction typically last several months, and in some people, can last for years. Plus, whenever you start to see hair come back, you can visit us for a quick touch-up treatment.
That means laser hair reduction lets you enjoy summer without needing to pull out your razor or make a waxing appointment.
If you want to explore laser hair reduction for yourself, schedule a consultation with Dr. Phuah. Call our team at Hanami Medspa or make your appointment online today.
