Unwanted hair can make the most confident person self-conscious. Shaving only lasts for so long and sometimes the hair can grow back thicker and darker. It’s time to consider something more permanent!
Laser hair removal is a painless alternative to shaving to remove unwanted facial and/or body hair. Whether your unwanted hair stems from genetics, hormonal changes or even a medical condition, Moore Road MediSpa’s permanent hair removal treatments can help you regain your confidence.
Moore Road MediSpa uses a cutting-edge, superior, proprietary treatment with Viora’s IPL (Intense Light Therapy) PCR (PulseConfiguRythm) technology with no pain or downtime. Your treatments are safe, comfortable and effective. Viora’s IPL technology works with all skin types.
What to Expect?!
The patient will shave the day before or day of the treatment. While at the spa the patient is made comfortable and given goggles to wear to protect their eyes from any incidental exposure to the light. An ultrasound gel is applied to the area where hair will be removed using the Viora IPL. Depending on the area being treated, the procedure is usually fairly quick, oftentimes can be done during a lunch hour. So you can get back to your life at the speed of light!Next, the practitioner will begin the procedure with the handpiece. She will lightly touch the skin and apply the IPL. With each click of the IPL, the client feels a cooling sensation with a slight heat “zap”, then cooling again. The practitioner will then quickly work through the target area. Each person is unique, however, some patients see results after the first few sessions.
A total of six (6) treatment sessions are given every 4-8 weeks depending on which area of the body is targeted.Maintenance sessions may be required.
The reason we do six sessions is due to the fact that not every hair is in the same stage of growth at one time. Hair goes through four stages of growth. Hair removal will only be achieved on hair that’s in the Anagen stage. Different areas of the body have different lengths of the Anagen stage. Treatment intervals should correlate to the Anagen stage so that each treatment affects a different group of follicles.
What to Avoid?!
The easy answer is…The SUN! You want to avoid tanning the skin during laser treatments. So avoiding sun tanning, tanning beds, tanning lotion is a must! Wear your sunscreen!
