Do I still get result when laser hair removal is pain-free?
You probably heard no-pain no-gain?! This might not be true when it comes to removing unwanted hair. It’s long past that time that laser hair removal was associated with pain and discomfort, while and after each treatment.
General public beliefs are that if you do not feel pain, means it has less impact and as a result your hair grows back quicker but this is not generally true.
Newer technologies hair removal machines were built to remove/reduce unwanted hair with least or no pain.
Soprano is one of the newest and most advanced laser hair removal machine that works by safely heating the dermis to a temperature that effectively damages the hair follicle, yet not injuring the surrounding skin. Resulting in not only pain free treatments but also the new ICE applicator further cools the exposed skin by integrating numerous cooling mechanisms. Laser hair removal has become comfortable and effective more than ever before. Clinically proven SHR technology and In-Motion Technique moved laser hair removal to the next level comparing to Intense Pulsed light (IPL), which is outdated technology that some salons are still using.
Do I still have to do re-touch sessions regularly after I finished my hair removal treatments?
Yes, you have to go for hair removal re-touch sessions at the latest every six months.
The reality is that you should set your expectations based on the fact that laser hair removal treatments are more or less a procedure of permanent hair reduction and not permanent hair removal. Listed below are some reasons why you shouldn’t be surprised if you hair grows back after a while.
- You are a live human being with live body cells that reproduce themselves
- Your hormones and hair cycles play significant roles in how fast and how much your hair grows back
- Shaving with blades makes the hair’s root stronger and may cause faster growth
How long does a full-body laser hair removal session usually take?
The length of each full-body laser removal sessions is what you need to confirm ahead of time before booking your appointment with any hair removal laser clinic.
The technician/ medical aesthetician who works on your body can finish your full-body session in half and hour or 3 hours! Which one do you think will get the better result? I will give you an example, when you take your car to carwash. Some will clean it for $40 in 15 minutes and some will charge you $120 and they detail-clean your car for an hour or so. It is as simple as that!
If you are getting hair removal laser treatment by a technician that is knowledgeable and highly experienced with great techniques, who would not cut the treatment short just to save some money on the pulses that he/she would use on each full-body session (each machine needs maintenance after certain amount of pulses that is shoot and these maintenance is not cheap at all), your full-body laser hair removal should take something between two to three hours depends on your body.
