Permanent Hair Removal NYC
Summer is upon us, and once again it is the season of poolside relaxation, beach vacations, sleeveless tops, and shorts. But with all that sunshine and fun comes a familiar problem, which is the constant need to shave, wax, or find a last-minute appointment just to feel presentable.
You get a last-minute invite to a day at the beach, and suddenly you realize you have to deal with shaving your legs or your underarms, or your bikini line. You are in a rush and end up with a bumpy rash, irritated skin, and miss a few spots. This scenario is frustrating and time-consuming; the results only last a day or two, and you are leaving the house with zero confidence about the way you look. Can you relate?
Let’s be honest, shaving is annoying, waxing is painful, and it is close to a full-time job to keep your skin smooth and hair-free. Today, we are going to talk about permanent hair removal, which is a safe and effective solution that will save you time, effort, and frustration.
What Is Permanent Hair Removal?
Permanent hair removal may sound like a myth, but it is real, and the experts at Beauté Aesthetics offer laser hair removal treatments that can save you from any more awkward moments or embarrassment from unwanted hair. After a series of laser treatments, you will wake up smooth and hair-free, ready to go to the beach, pool, or just wear your favorite sundress.
How Does Permanent Hair Removal With Laser Treatments Work?
Electrolysis treatments provide the ultimate in permanent hair removal, but each follicle must be treated individually, so the process is very time-consuming and painful.
Laser hair removal is a more popular treatment to target unwanted hair because it effectively and painlessly treats larger areas and results in almost permanent hair removal. Laser treatments do not just remove hair on the surface of the skin like shaving or pull it out by the roots like waxing, but they target the hair follicle where the hair grows.
During a laser hair removal treatment, light energy is directed and targeted at the hair follicle, and this focused heat causes damage to the follicle, so it can no longer easily grow new hair. In most cases, if hair does grow back in that follicle, it is finer and lighter, but often several laser treatments result in permanent hair removal.
The Laser We Use For Permanent Hair Removal
At Beauté Aesthetics, we use Diode Inova Laser Technology, which works at an 808-nanometer wavelength. This may sound very technical, but what this means in plain English is that it is designed to penetrate deep into the skin and target the hair follicle without harming or affecting the surrounding skin.
This 808-nanometer wavelength works well for hair removal because it is powerful but precise and is suitable for many different skin types. It also has built-in cooling features that help protect your skin during the treatment and make it very comfortable.
What Areas Can Be Targeted For Permanent Hair Removal
At Beauté Aesthetics New York, we can help you ditch the daily upkeep for keeping your skin silky smooth. One of the best things about laser hair removal is that it can be used by both men and women and is effective on almost any part of the body where unwanted hair shows up, including:
- The face, including the upper lip, chin, jawline, or sideburns.
- The underarms
- Arms
- Legs
- Back and Chest
- Bikini Area
- Brazilian
- Stomach
- Buttocks
Because each area is different, they each may require a different number of treatments to achieve permanent hair removal.
What To Expect During Your Hair Removal Treatment
Before your session, you will meet with one of our experienced Beauté Aesthetics professionals to assess your skin type and hair color and talk about the results you are looking for so we can tailor the treatment to your needs.
During your session, the hand-held laser wand will be moved over the area being treated, and you may feel a light snapping or warmth, but most people do not find it uncomfortable.
After the laser treatment is completed, the targeted area might be a little red or sensitive and look similar to a mild sunburn but will usually go away within a few hours. We will provide you with some easy-to-follow aftercare tips to help your skin recover and stay healthy between your sessions.
Most people need several sessions (usually six to eight) spaced a few weeks apart to achieve their desired results because hair grows in cycles, and the laser is only effective during certain stages of that cycle.
What Are The Benefits Of Permanent Hair Removal?
There are many reasons why more people are choosing laser hair removal treatments besides the obvious, never having to shave or wax again. These benefits include:
- You Will Always Be Ready
- With permanent hair removal, you no longer have to stress over last-minute plans or worry about your grooming routine. If you get invited to a last-minute weekend getaway or just want to throw on a tank top and a pair of shorts and head out the door, your underarms and legs are already smooth and ready. It is one less thing to have to worry about, and most people find this kind of freedom pretty amazing.
- Long-Lasting or Permanent Results
- The damaged hair follicles either stop growing any hair, or the hair that does grow becomes much easier to manage because it is thinner and lighter.
- It Saves Time and Money
- The amount of money you spend on razors, shaving cream, wax kits, or salon visits year over year adds up. There are upfront costs associated with laser hair removal, but after a while, you only need occasional maintenance treatments, so it can save you money in the long run. Having to put time and effort into keeping your skin smooth is also a hassle, and since it is said that “time is money,” laser hair treatments are worth the investment.
- Fewer Ingrown Hairs
- Many individuals experience ingrown hairs, especially in areas that experience frequent shaving. Laser treatments stop hair growth, so after your treatments, you are less likely to have to deal with painful ingrown hairs.
- Smooth Skin without Irritation
- Laser treatments eliminate the need for shaving or waxing and leave your skin smooth, clear, and irritation-free.
- Comfortable and Convenient
- The Diode Inova Laser is gentle on your skin, and sessions are quick and comfortable. Depending on the treatment area, you can be in and out of your session on your lunch break.
How Can I Find Out If It Is Right for Me?
Typically, laser hair removal works the best on people with a significant contrast between their hair color and skin tone (like dark hair on light skin), but the Diode Inova Laser that we use is designed to be effective on a wider range of skin and hair types.
If you are looking for a safe and reliable way to remove unwanted hair and are willing to commit to undergoing a series of treatments to achieve your desired results, laser hair removal may be just what you are looking for.
