What is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is a noninvasive procedure that eliminates body hair by heating and damaging the hair follicle. The procedure removes body hair and prevents or delays future hair growth in the areas you decide to treat. 

You need multiple laser hair removal sessions to effectively remove all of the hair in a particular area. Not all follicles are in a growth phase at the same time. Multiple treatments ensure you capture all of them during their growth phases. 

Laser hair removal services at Restoria are safe for all skin types, but results vary. Eventually, you might see some of the hair grow back. If or when this happens, you can schedule another appointment at Restoria for a touch-up treatment. Any hair that grows back is sparse, fine, and lighter than before. 

Which areas can laser hair removal treat?

Laser hair removal can remove coarse or fine body hair from almost any part of your body. Some of the most commonly targeted areas for this procedure are your:

• Chin and neck
• Upper lip
• Arms
• Legs
• Armpits
• Back
• Chest
• Abdomen
• Bikini area

Removing hair from your brow area, eyelids, or surrounding areas with laser hair removal is not advised as the laser can harm your eyes. 

How should I care for my skin before and after laser hair removal?

Before laser hair removal, you’ll have a consultation with the Restoria team to determine if the treatment is appropriate for your specific skin. During this consultation, your provider will review your medical history and discuss the potential risks and benefits. 

After your laser hair removal treatment, your skin is more sensitive than usual. Because of this, it’s essential to take good care of it to avoid complications and discomfort. At Restoria, your provider gives you the aftercare instructions during your consultation. They advise you to:

• Avoid sunlight and tanning beds
• Use a cool compress to soothe your skin
• Be gentle while cleaning treated areas
• Avoid makeup, lotions, and other products on your skin for 24 hours
• Avoid scratching your skin

You should also wear sunscreen for at least one or two months after laser hair removal treatment so you can avoid sunburns and discomfort.
