Consultation
Every Restoration MedSpa treatment starts with a complimentary personal consultation. We will openly and honestly discuss your concerns, realistic goals for treatment, and your medical history. Your provider will also examine the hair in your treatment area(s). If laser hair removal is the best solution for your situation, we’ll schedule your sessions.
Treatment
During your laser hair removal in Winston-Salem, our state-of-the-art handheld laser device delivers light energy that gets absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the target hair. This energy converts to heat, which damages the hair follicles that produce hair, stopping them from growing any new hairs.
Recovery
There is no downtime after laser hair removal, and you can go on with your day. You’ll want to avoid makeup, skin bleaching/depilatory creams/gels, or other skin treatments in the target area for at least 48 hours. Also, refrain from sun exposure for 2 weeks, and don’t pick at or scratch the treated area.
Any adult who wants to remove unwanted hair is a good candidate for laser hair removal in Winston-Salem. Though dark-colored hair is most effectively treated, most skin tones and hair colors can safely and effectively enjoy laser hair removal. However, very blonde or white hairs may not respond to treatment.
One of the nice pluses of laser hair removal at Restoration MedSpa is that you’ll see positive results immediately after treatment. However, to ensure the removal is permanent, most patients need at least 6 to 8 treatments. Hair undergoes growth cycles, where some follicles are active (anagen) while others might be in the resting phase (telogen). When resting, the hair is there, but it is not growing. The shedding phase (exogen) is when the follicle releases the hair.
Not all follicles are in the same phase in your treatment area, so any that have shed the hair but not started the anagen phase at the time of treatment will end up producing hair. That’s why it can take at least 6 treatments to permanently reduce unwanted hair in your treatment area. Treatments are done every 4 to 8 weeks to allow the growth cycle to complete.
Each patient is different, so the number of treatments will depend on our specific biology. Furthermore, although laser hair removal permanently reduces hair growing at the time of treatment, new hair may grow as a result of changes in hormone production, potentially requiring touch-up treatments.
Laser hair removal is a safe and effective way to permanently reduce unwanted hair. Though it requires zero downtime, a few more common temporary side effects include:
There are some other rare side effects. Because every patient is unique, your Restoration MedSpa provider will discuss all the details during your consultation to ensure your treatment is safe and effective for your situation.
