If you’re considering the benefits of laser hair removal treatments for eliminating unwanted body hair, it’s also worth considering how much money – and time! – laser hair removal will save you in the long run.
At Dermatology Center of Northwest Houston, Lisa Hitchins, MD, and the experienced aesthetics team use the latest advancements in laser hair removal technologies in-office, including the LightSheer® Duet laser by Lumenis®, to help you achieve great results.
How LightSheer Duet laser technology works
The LightSheer Duet system uses laser energy to destroy the hair follicles in the active growth phase, eliminating their ability to produce new hair.
The Dermatology Center of Northwest Houston aesthetic experts can treat hair follicles in several areas of the body where unwanted hair grows for both men and women, such as:
- Legs
- Back
- Shoulders
- Underarms
The laser system is powerful but safe enough to treat even the most delicate areas, like your bikini line, without damaging surrounding skin or tissue. LightSheer Duet also has a ChillTip™ attachment to provide cooling sensations in the sensitive areas of skin to ensure your comfort.
To adequately treat all hair follicles, you will likely need multiple laser sessions. This is because not all hair follicles are in the active growth phase at the same time.
The money-saving benefits of laser hair removal
By addressing unwanted body hair with laser technology, you can effectively stop hair growth for the long term. Once the hair follicle is destroyed, it can no longer produce hair, ensuring the treatment area stays smooth and hair-free for a long time.
While laser hair removal treatments are designed to be affordable, they also eliminate many long-term costs associated with staying hair-free.
You no longer have to invest in razors or shaving supplies. There’ll be no need to spend money on messy waxes and wax systems and, best of all, you won’t have to endure the pain or time spent using hair removal waxes.
If you’re inclined to use expensive electric shavers or electrolysis equipment to keep your body hair under control, you can expect to save even more money over time because you won’t need them anymore. In addition to the effort and pain these shaving tools involve, there’s no need to budget for replacing them when they no longer give you good results.
With laser hair removal, you undergo just a few sessions to do what the other hair elimination options can’t. Treatments are relatively comfortable, and while you may feel a mild stinging sensation during your treatment, once your sessions are complete, there’s no more discomfort or inconvenience.
Laser hair removal solutions for all
Laser hair removal can work for almost anyone. Unless you have an existing skin condition or infection, the Dermatology Center of Northwest Houston aesthetic team can safely use the LightSheer Duet laser system on any skin type, color, or texture.
The team performs a comprehensive skin evaluation prior to your treatment and customizes your laser sessions based on your expectations for results and skin health.
