Laser Hair Removal Tampa, FL
Benefits of Laser Hair Removal at Luminous Skin & Laser Tampa
Let’s face it – Living in hot Florida temperatures means constantly showing skin. Having to shave, tweeze, and/or wax on a daily basis is inconvenient, time consuming, and costly. If you’re not happy with shaving, tweezing, or waxing to remove unwanted hair, laser hair removal may be an option worth considering.
Lasers are useful for removing unwanted hair from the face, leg, chin, back, arm, underarm, bikini line, and other areas.
Benefits of Laser Hair Removal
Benefits of laser hair removal include:
Precision. Lasers can selectively target dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged.
Speed. Each pulse of the laser takes a fraction of a second and can treat many hairs at the same time. The laser can treat an area approximately the size of a quarter every second. Small areas such as the upper lip can be treated in less than a minute, and large areas, such as the back or legs, may take up to an hour.
Predictability. Most patients have permanent hair loss after an average of three to seven sessions.
Frequently Asked Questions - Laser Hair Removal Tampa
The hair growth process can be broken down in four main stages that occur between hair starting to grow until it naturally falls out. It’s called the hair growth cycle. At any given area in the body, there will be hair growing at different stages. Because hair follicles can only be eliminated at a specific phase of their growth cycle, multiple sessions are required to assure all hair in the target area is treated correctly and evenly removed.
Most patients require between 3 – 8 sessions to see peak results. However, a dramatic reduction in the amount of hair growth and thickness can be seen from as little as two sessions.
Luminous Skin & Laser’s advanced laser technology can safely treat the skin of all types. However, laser hair removal should only be performed on healthy skin. Inflamed or irritated skin should be restored before attempting laser hair removal.
You can resume your normal activities on the day of your hair removal treatment. However, there are a few indications you should follow to ensure you make the most out of your hair removal treatment. Physical activity and hot showers should be avoided in the first 24 hours, as heat from the laser will still be trapped underneath your skin. Direct sun exposure should also be avoided in the first week following your treatment, as your skin will be especially sensitive to the sun during this period.
The levels of discomfort experienced during laser hair removal vary from patient to patient, depending on their pain tolerance. Some patients describe it as feeling like being gently slapped with a tiny rubber band. Other patients report hardly noticing any sensation at all. The procedure is generally described as tolerable and quick.
At Luminous Skin & Laser Tampa, we only use the best and latest in skincare equipment/technology. Our laser hair removal device has an oversized handpiece that allows your therapist to work faster, treating larger body areas more quickly without compromising in effectiveness. This will also result in less discomfort for you.
