Unwanted Hairs
Unwanted hair growth can be a common concern for many individuals. It can occur anywhere on the body, but is most often seen on the face, underarms, legs, and bikini area. Factors such as genetics, hormonal imbalances, or certain medical conditions can contribute to excessive or unwanted hair. While temporary solutions like shaving, waxing, or tweezing are commonly used, many seek more permanent and effective solutions for long-term hair reduction.
Treatment Options for Unwanted Hair
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)
IPL is a popular method for permanent hair reduction. The light energy targets hair follicles, heating them to inhibit future hair growth. IPL is effective for large areas such as the legs, arms, and back, providing long-lasting results.
Lutronic Clarity® & Lutronic Ultra®
These advanced laser technologies use targeted light to destroy hair follicles, making them effective for reducing unwanted hair on various areas of the body. These lasers can work on different skin types and provide a more permanent solution than traditional hair removal methods.
Dermaplaning
A surgical scalpel is used for dermaplaning, which involves gently exfoliating the skin and removing fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the face. This treatment helps to create a smoother surface, giving the skin a polished appearance.
Waxing
A waxing treatment is a temporary solution to unwanted hair, where hair is removed from the root using a warm wax. It can be done on various areas of the body, including the face, legs, and bikini line, with results lasting for several weeks
