What Is Laser Hair Removal?

In Rhode Island, laser hair removal is one of the most popular Medspa treatments. LHR is an effective method for eliminating unwanted hair on the body, saving you both time and money while providing permanent silky-smooth skin.

Using the Gentle Max Pro Laser, our friendly and professional staff is equipped with the latest technology to help you remove unwanted hair. Our treatments are safe for all skin types, including darker complexions. Laser hair removal can be performed almost anywhere on the body where unwanted hair is present.

Why Laser Hair Removal?

Many treatment options for removing unwanted hair, such as shaving and waxing, have been around for decades. However, these methods only provide temporary solutions and have varying success rates.

Laser hair removal is a safe and effective way to permanently reduce stubborn, unwanted hair. It is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures in the US. Lasers can remove hair from virtually any area of the body, including the face, arms, legs, underarms, bikini line, and more.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?

At SeaMist Medspa, we use state-of-the-art lasers that emit highly concentrated light into the hair follicles. The pigment within the follicles absorbs the light, permanently preventing future hair growth while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. Our lasers are equipped with cooling devices to minimize discomfort and protect the skin’s surface from excessive heat and potential pigmentation changes.

Since hair grows in cycles, multiple treatments are necessary to effectively destroy the hair follicles. Laser hair removal is repeated until hair growth stops completely, yielding satisfying results and boosting your confidence. We recommend six treatments per area, though additional sessions may be required.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the use of lasers for hair reduction.

Reasons For Hair Removal

One of the biggest perks of this treatment is the confidence it restores when you look in the mirror. Laser hair removal is available for both women and men. While everyone has their own reasons for seeking it, many people turn to laser hair removal to address unwanted hair growth caused by hormonal fluctuations, age, genetics, and certain medical conditions.

Whatever your reasons may be, our team at SeaMist is here to take care of you. We offer a variety of treatments, with laser hair removal being one of the most popular choices.

Am I a Good Candidate?

Laser hair removal is a safe and effective solution for unwanted hair growth, with minimal side effects. With little to no downtime, it is an ideal treatment for most individuals looking to eliminate excessive hair growth.

We invite you to schedule a consultation to discuss a personalized treatment plan with one of our experienced nurses.

Areas of Treatment

Laser hair removal treatments can be used to remove hair from the following areas:

  • Upper Lip
  • Chin
  • Sideburns
  • Legs
  • Arms
  • Abdomen
  • Bikini Area
  • Chest
  • Hands
  • Feet
  • Buttocks

Side Effects of Laser Hair Removal

Side effects may include swelling, minor discomfort, and redness that can last a few days. But these are not major issues for most patients.

How Many Hair Removal Treatments Will I Need?

There are three phases of hair growth, and for laser hair removal to be most effective in disabling the hair follicle, the hair must be in the active growth phase. Most individuals can achieve their desired results in about 6 treatments.

However, results may vary from person to person, so you may require fewer or more treatments. After treatment, it can take up to 2 weeks for the hair to fall out. The cost of hair removal will depend on the number of sessions required to achieve lasting results.

Should I Try Home Hair Removal Products Before Having Laser Hair Removal Treatments?

Many patients will try at-home products before seeking laser hair removal. These may include waxing, tweezing, hair removal lotions, and even at-home lasers. These products may temporarily remove hair, but the hair generally grows back in a matter of weeks or days.

Laser hair removal at SeaMist Medspa is the most effective way to decrease the growth of unwanted facial and body hair.

Expected Results

Results may vary, but on average you can expect to see:

  • Up to 25 percent hair growth reduction with each treatment.
  • Treatments are performed again every month to two months, depending on your individual needs.
  • Hair that may come back after treatment is typically finer in texture and lighter in color.

Tips From The American Academy of Dermatology:

The American Academy of Dermatology reports that many Americans struggle with facial and body hair and are looking for effective solutions.

Laser hair removal offers the best results for those with light skin and dark hair, as the laser light is absorbed more by the dark pigments in the hair than by the surrounding skin. For those with darker skin, lasers with longer wavelengths are available to effectively treat hair.

At SeaMist, all treatments are performed by trained professionals to ensure the highest standards of safety and effectiveness. Typically, at least six treatments are needed to achieve permanent results. Dark hair responds better to laser treatments, while lighter hair may be less responsive, though medications can enhance effectiveness.

If you’re considering laser hair removal, it’s recommended to avoid tanning for two weeks before your treatment. Afterward, it’s important to protect your skin by avoiding sun exposure for another two weeks and using sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30.

INSTANT, NATURAL & QUALITY RESULTS THAT LAST WITHOUT INVASIVE SURGERY

Thread lifting with MINT™ PDO Thread is a minimally invasive procedure using absorbable polydioxanone (PDO) barbed sutures. The treatment provides an instant facelift that lifts sagging facial skin and progressively adds volume to the mid-face region. MINT™ PDO thread is a popular non-surgical facelift option and is FDA-cleared. Not only do MINT™ PDO threads improve the appearance of sagging skin, but the PDO sutures also promote collagen stimulation and neovascularization. This action enhances skin elasticity and improves skin texture. It also reduces the appearance of noticeable fine lines and adds facial volume. Turn back the clock and achieve a youthful, defined, and natural appearance.
