What is laser hair removal, and how does it work?

Laser hair removal is an advanced treatment that eliminates unwanted hair at its source. At Premier MedSpa, Dr. Chakeer uses precision laser technology to target active hair follicles with controlled pulses of light. This energy converts to heat, effectively disabling the follicle's ability to produce new hair while keeping your skin safe and comfortable. 

Unlike shaving or waxing, laser treatments provide a long-term solution to unwanted hair growth.

Laser hair removal can target unwanted hair nearly anywhere on your face or body, including your:

• Face (upper lip, chin, jawline, sideburns)
• Underarms
• Arms
• Legs
• Back
• Chest
• Bikini area

Laser treatments work on various skin types and hair textures, offering a safe and effective alternative to traditional hair removal methods.

What are the benefits of laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal at Premier MedSpa offers a permanent solution to unwanted hair, transforming your daily routine. Dr. Chakeer's advanced laser treatments deliver lasting results that temporary methods can’t match.

Benefits include:

• Permanent hair reduction
• Freedom from daily shaving and waxing
• No more ingrown hairs or razor burn
• Smoother, clearer skin
• Treatment for all body areas
• Time and money savings on hair removal products

Experience the confidence of smooth, hair-free skin without the constant maintenance of traditional hair removal methods.

Does laser hair removal hurt?

Dr. Chakeer prioritizes your comfort during laser hair removal at Premier MedSpa. The treatment’s mild discomfort is manageable with advanced cooling technology and optional numbing cream for sensitive areas. Most patients report feeling only brief, warm sensations during the procedure, which may be less uncomfortable than waxing or plucking.

How many laser hair removal treatments will I need?

Most people need about 6-8 laser hair removal sessions for optimal results. Hair grows in cycles, and the laser targets follicles during the active growth phase. Because not all hairs are in this phase at the same time, multiple treatments allow for thorough coverage. Dr. Chakeer typically spaces sessions 4-6 weeks apart, depending on the treatment area and your hair type. 

Some areas, like the face, may require more frequent treatments, while body areas may need slightly longer intervals. Occasional maintenance sessions may be necessary to address any fine or stubborn hairs that regrow over time.

Laser hair removal is the secret to smooth, soft skin without the hassle of constant shaving. Call Premier MedSpa today or schedule an appointment online to learn more.
