The Pros and Cons of Laser Hair Removal

If you are looking to get rid of unwanted hair that keeps on growing back no matter no often you shave or wax, consider getting laser hair removal. This convenient treatment can permanently remove any unwanted hair with quick and easy procedures. When considering laser hair removal, it is important to evaluate the pros and cons. Here is what you should know:

The Pros

Get Rid of Your Razor

As mentioned, laser hair removal will permanently get rid of any unwanted hair on your body. Have you ever gotten in the shower in the morning before work and realized you still need to shave? If so you are not alone. Shaving can take a significant amount of time out of your busy day. With laser hair removal you can say goodbye to your razor for good after the right number of treatments.

Short, Simple Procedure

Laser hair removal uses a handheld machine that uses concentrated light to destroy hair follicles. This allows our technicians to easily reach any areas you want treated on your body. Most treatments can be completed in as short as half an hour and are completely pain-free. Some patients even come in during their lunch break and can return to their schedule right after their session is completed.

The Cons

Higher Costs Upfront

While laser hair removal will save you money in the long run, it can have high initial costs. The price of laser hair removal is dependent on the size of the area being treated and the thickness of the hair. While it may cost more initially upfront, you will save thousands of dollars in the long run by not having to shave or wax again.

Certain Hair Cannot Be Treated

Laser hair removal is unable to target hair follicles that are light in color. Light strands may not be detected by the handheld device used in the procedure.

Some Sensitivity After Your Session

Individuals may experience some sensitivity to sunlight immediately following their laser hair removal session. This tenderness is temporary and should fade within 24 hours.
