Laser Hair Removal
At Reflections Laser & Aesthetics, we use the latest Candela and Cynosure lasers to deliver excellent hair reduction results. Several factors affect the success of hair removal, with genetics being the most significant. Our laser specialists customize each treatment to meet your unique needs.
Who is it for? Laser hair removal is ideal for anyone wanting to get rid of unwanted hair permanently.
How does it work? Laser hair removal targets the pigment in your hair. The laser’s energy is absorbed by the color in the hair shaft, which heats the hair and destroys the cells responsible for hair growth. For the best results, multiple treatments are recommended, as hair needs to be targeted during its active growth phase.
Before treatment, the area is shaved to leave just a bit of stubble. The laser is applied to the skin, and the energy travels down the hair, heating it up like a lightning rod. This heat spreads to the cells around the hair follicle, disrupting the growth process.
After treatment, you’ll likely see some redness and feel a bit of swelling around the hair shafts. Over the next 7-21 days, you’ll notice the treated hair falling out. The process is fairly quick and leads to lasting hair reduction.
