The Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

Whether it is on your legs, arms or face, almost everyone has hair that they would like to remove. Shaving and waxing may be your first choice for hair removal, but those are just temporary solutions. The hair is guaranteed to grow back at some point, and you have to start the entire hair removal process all over again.

It may be part of the routine for most people, but you do not have to endure this endless cycle of hair removal any longer thanks to laser hair removal. After learning more about the three key benefits of laser hair removal, you will want to immediately schedule your first appointment with Metro Dermatology.

Permanent Results

The only way to permanently remove unwanted hair on any part of your body is by getting a laser hair removal procedure, which makes it one of the biggest benefit of the procedure. The goal is to remove the unwanted hair from your body, and that is exactly what laser hair removal does. It usually takes between three and seven laser hair removal sessions to achieve long-lasting hair loss. The number of procedures ultimately depends on the location and size of the area you wish to remove the hair. 

Accuracy

It is also extremely easy to miss a spot when shaving or waxing. This just makes you waste even more of your time by going back in the bathroom to remove the few hairs that you missed. You will never have to deal with the frustration ever again after getting a laser hair removal procedure.

The lasers used during this procedure are able to specifically target the hairs on your body you wish to remove. The precision ability of the lasers also means that the skin around the hairs will be unharmed. 

Speed

The lasers use quick pulses of light that target multiple hairs at the same time. This means you will end up spending very little time in our office when you get a laser hair removal treatment. The length of the treatment depends on the size of the area being treated, but it should never take more than an hour.

Treating small areas like the upper lip can be done in under one minute. Your legs and back will take the longest time to treat. The laser hair removal treatment time takes about as long as shaving or waxing, but you will not have to do it the rest of your life.

The time saved from not having to shave or wax will give you more time to do whatever you would like. Contact Metro Dermatology today to schedule your consultation.
