Gentle, Effective Hair Reduction Treatments in Maryland
If you dream of a day without shaving under your arms, managing leg hair, or dealing with unwanted dark facial hair, laser hair reduction offers a lasting solution. With just a few treatments, this technology can significantly reduce hair growth and simplify your routine.
Because laser hair reduction targets pigment, it works best on dark hair. As a result, women often choose treatment for areas like the underarms and bikini line. Similarly, men commonly select laser hair removal for the back or the neck to maintain a cleaner, more consistent look.
Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
How does laser hair reduction work?
An infrared laser targets hair follicles specifically. The hair follicles are heated up and destroyed. A computer-guided scanning system ensures that your skin is rapidly and evenly treated.
Is hair color a factor in laser hair reduction?
Yes. Because the laser targets melanin, red, blonde and white hair will not be eliminated with laser treatments.
How many treatments will be needed?
This will vary with skin type and which part of the body is being treated. Generally, an area will need to be treated 6 times at intervals of 4 to 6 weeks. There are three phases of hair growth. Only hair in the active growth is successfully treated each session. Maintenance treatments are generally needed three times per year.
