During treatment, a specialized cooling handpiece is moved across the skin, delivering laser energy to heat and destroy hair follicles. No anesthetic is required, but it can be applied for extra comfort. Sessions typically take less than one hour, depending on the treatment area.
Hair in the treated area will begin to shed in the days after treatment. Since hair grows in different cycles, multiple sessions (typically 6) are required for complete removal. Some patients may need occasional touch-ups to maintain results.
A handheld laser device delivers precise energy to the treatment area while using cryo-touch and cryo-air cooling to keep skin comfortable. Most patients describe a warm, tingling sensation but no major discomfort.
There is no downtime, but temporary redness and swelling may occur. Patients should avoid excessive sun exposure and wear sunscreen as the skin heals.
