Laser Hair Removal Treatment in Philadelphia, Phoenixville, King of Prussia
Modern women — and increasingly greater numbers of men — are waging a constant battle against bothersome facial and body hair. A long-lasting alternative to waxing, shaving, or plucking, laser hair removal at our Philadelphia or Phoenixville locations offers residents of King of Prussia and other areas of Pennsylvania a simple solution to the problem of unwanted facial or body hair.
Before Laser Hair Removal
To determine whether or not a person is a good candidate for laser hair removal, one of our skilled doctors will conduct a comprehensive preoperative consultation. During the consultation, the doctor will review the patient's medical history, asking questions about past or current conditions and any medications the patient may be taking. He will also discuss the laser hair removal procedure — what the procedure is like and what the patient should do before and after treatment. Since a tan can increase the risk of blistering or discoloration, the patient will be advised before undergoing laser hair removal to avoid the use of sunless tanning products and exposure to the sun until the tan fades completely.
Laser Hair Removal Procedure
Before laser hair removal at our Philadelphia, Phoenixville, and King of Prussia-area practice, a topical anesthetic may be applied to the areas that will be treated with the laser. The patient will be given a pair of goggles to wear during the treatment. The goggles protect the patient's eyes from any exposure to the laser light. Then the doctor will apply a laser device to the skin. The heat from the laser damages hair follicles, inhibiting the growth of hair. Several treatments may be required in order to provide optimal results.
Laser Hair Removal Benefits
Although laser hair removal may not completely prevent the growth of hair, it can significantly reduce hair growth by 95 percent, as well as prolong the time between hair removal and regrowth. New hair that does grow back will be much thinner. This period can last from several months to several years, offering a person a worry-free break from shaving, waxing, and other inconvenient methods of hair removal.
