Laser Hair Removal

Do you want to say goodbye to shaving, plucking, and waxing? Laser hair removal at Pine & River Aesthetics is a safe and effective procedure that lets you throw your razor away for good.

What Is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a safe, effective process of permanently reducing or eliminating unwanted hair on almost any part of the body except near the eyes.

Laser hair removal is a popular alternative to waxing and shaving. This is mainly because it often provides permanent results and is less expensive than maintaining a waxing and shaving routine for a lifetime.

Additionally, there’s no recovery time needed after treatment, so no more doing the waxing-waddle or battling razor burn. Instead, you’ll be left with silky smooth skin that you will love all seasons of the year. 

Enjoy smoother skin all over, thanks to your complimentary VISIA scan when you book a consultation with Pine & River Aesthetics. VISIA is a digital imaging scan that helps us develop the perfect treatment plan for your skin and its areas of need.

What Is Lumenis LightSheer?

Lumenis LightSheer is an FDA-approved laser therapy that removes hair growth by up to 95% in 10 to 14 sessions. The laser works on all skin types and can eliminate hair from most of the body. 

Patients will no longer need to wax, pluck, and shave, which can save time and money. LightSheer laser therapy treatment requires no recovery, meaning you can return to what you love faster.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?

Laser hair removal uses light to target the melanin in hair follicles’ growth centers. The light then converts to heat to destroy the follicle at its source. Hair follicles can no longer grow in the treatment area without their growth centers.

We recommend getting multiple laser hair removal treatments because they target the active phase of the hair growth cycle. When hair is in the resting phase, known as the telogen phase, it can’t correctly absorb light or generate enough heat to damage the growth center.

If you follow your customized laser hair removal plan, you’ll likely gain long-lasting results. Laser hair removal effectively eliminates 80 to 90% of hair within the treated areas. 

Even if you notice hair growing back, it is typically finer and less noticeable than it was before. For most people, that means there is no longer a need for daily shaving.

What Can I Expect After Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal can treat the bikini area, legs, underarms, neck, face, back, chest, and arms. Depending on the treatment area, the procedure can take 15-60 minutes. You may experience mild swelling around hair follicles and slight redness of the skin.

While most clients experience maximum results after 4 to 8 treatments, we encourage you to have the number of laser hair removal treatments that achieve their desired results. 

The number of treatments required varies depending on your desired results and how your hair responds. Once results are achieved, a maintenance treatment every 6-12 months is typically recommended.
