Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is popular among both men and women as it uses light-based technology to safely and effectively remove unwanted hair from the body.

Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal has become one of the most popular elective procedures in America. It’s an effective method for the long-term reduction or removal of unwanted hair on the face and/or body. This treatment typically leaves the skin feeling and looking smoother while providing longer-lasting results compared to other common hair removal methods. Board-certified internist Dr. Zainab Mogul-Ashraf at Hebe Medical Spa in Fishkill, NY performs safe and effective laser hair removal services for both men and women in common areas, such as the back, legs, arms, face, armpits, and bikini area.

Ideal Candidates

Laser hair removal with Clarity is a safe procedure that is effective for many individuals. During your initial consultation, we will go over your concerns, needs, and goals so we can decide if you should get this treatment. Ideal candidates for laser hair removal treatments:

Want to reduce hair on their face or body
Want to stop using other hair removal techniques (waxing, shaving, bleaching, depilatory creams)
Have dark hair and light skin
Are in good, overall physical health

Procedure Technique

On the day of your appointment, you will be asked to lie in a private treatment room as areas of your face and body being treated are washed to eliminate oil, dirt, and lotions. During the procedure, a team member will slightly stretch the area to create a clear pathway between the laser and the hair follicle root. The Clarity laser beam will focus on and eliminate the follicle, preventing the hair from growing again. On average, you will need to get 3 – 5 treatments over 3 – 4 weeks to achieve your best results. Your treatments are staggered to give the affected areas a chance to heal. It also allows time for follicles in the dormant phase to cycle into the phase of active growth so the laser can be effective. The specialized laser hair removing technology we use at Hebe Medical Spa targets only the hair follicle, preserving the skin and other tissue in the treatment area.

What To Expect

Although laser hair removal is mostly gentle, the treated areas of your skin may look like it has a slight sunburn due to the use of lasers. When you leave our office, you are able to go back to all normal activities, but you need to avoid exercise and direct sun exposure for at least a day to let the treated skin recover. At home following your session, we suggest soothing creams or ice packs to alleviate any mild discomfort.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Much Does Laser hair removal Cost?

Laser hair removal is a procedure that varies in cost, depending on the coverage area being addressed on the body, as well as how many sessions are needed to obtain a smooth, hairless result. When we discuss pricing with our patients, we often bring up the costs associated with waxing and how this can add up over time, especially if you get waxed on a regular basis year after year. Laser hair removal is more costly than waxing or other hair removal methods, but it is generally the most effective. We will create a custom plan for you that includes the total number of sessions recommended and pricing options to consider.

How effective is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is known to be a solid solution for hair removal. While some men and women can enjoy the benefits of the treatment for years, it is considered semi-permanent in some cases. Meaning, there could potentially be some hair growth that occurs in areas where the laser technology did not hit. Regardless, patients find the majority of the hair will be gone after their treatment plan has concluded and even if some hairs pop up, it is very easy to manage. Most patients find they receive a smooth result. Additional laser hair removal treatments can also be scheduled to take care of any stragglers or new growth as well.

does it hurt?

Laser hair removal may cause some minor discomfort, but it is not considered a painful procedure. Most patients will feel a slight sting when the laser targets and removes the hair follicle. We can apply a numbing ointment to the surface of the skin prior to the start of the treatment session. For patients who are used to getting waxed, they report that laser hair removal causes much less discomfort than a normal waxing session.

do i need multiple laser hair removal sessions?

Hair growth occurs in varying cycles. While some hair may be in a live growing phase, others may be dormant. Since each follicle grows in various stages, multiple treatment sessions are typically needed to target each hair and follicle at its growing phase. Between treatment sessions, the hairs that do grow can be shaved because the follicle is not affected. Laser hair removal removes the hair from the follicle, but the laser must be able to see the hair to remove it. If a follicle is dormant, it is harder for the laser to read. Spreading out your sessions over various weeks helps remove each follicle for the smoothest, most effective result.

which laser is best to remove hair?

There are many great lasers on the market today. Hebe Medical Spa is proud to offer the latest hair removal technology for patients of varying hair types. The Clarity lasers we invest in offer excellent results, and we continue to upgrade our technologies as newer lasers enter the marketplace and become available. We encourage you to ask us about our in-house technology during your laser hair removal consultation.
