Laser Hair Reduction

What is laser hair reduction?

Laser hair reduction has been around for several years, but recently gained much popularity as an aid to battle those unwanted hairs on both men and women. It involves using a concentrated beam of light (otherwise known as laser light) to destroy hair follicles. Hair follicles with darker pigmentation are what the laser light focuses on. Light energy is converted to heat in this process and it destroys the hair follicles. Laser hair removal can be used to remove hair from most body parts, and common treatment areas include the back, legs, arms, chest, face, and bikini area.

Clients are always relieved to know there is an easy alternative to the other temporary hair removal methods. We proudly offer laser hair removal services in both Selah and Yakima locations. You are always welcome to schedule a free consultation or reach out to us with any questions prior to scheduling your laser hair removal treatment.

Who benefits most from laser hair reduction?

Do you have dark pigmented hair follicles? This may be the treatment for you. Laser light is attracted to brown and black hair follicles, allowing clients with this type of hair to have the best results for laser hair removal. Blonde and gray hairs do not always have the same results as the darker pigmented hairs. However, any skin color can be treated. We are always happy to answer your questions and discuss whether or not you are an ideal candidate for laser hair removal.

Is laser hair reduction effective?

Yes! Contrary to the temporary hair removal methods, laser hair removal works to reduce the growth of the hair follicle and offers an easy hair removal solution to the constant temporary methods of shaving, waxing, threading, or plucking.

Preparation and Recovery Tips:

Prior to and after your treatment, we highly suggest the following steps to help with a successful treatment:

• Avoid waxing, threading, or plucking four weeks prior to treatment. Shaving is fine. By doing this, the follicles on the area you’ll be using the laser on won’t be disturbed.

• Avoid tanning beds or direct sunlight immediately after treatment.
