Shaving and waxing can take valuable time out of your busy schedule. Having to constantly shave unwanted hair before a date or prepare to be summer-ready can also be stressful. Laser hair removal offers a long-lasting solution to smooth, hair-free skin. Synergy MedAesthetics offers the Cutera Laser Hair Removal Excel HR, the latest advancement in laser hair removal. This laser system has built-in cooling technology to keep you comfortable throughout the treatment and is more effective than other laser hair removal systems.
The first step in your laser hair removal in the Tri Cities, WA is a consultation with one of our highly trained providers. They will examine the area you want to treat to ensure you are a good candidate for the treatment. During this time, they will also look at your skin and hair type to better tailor the treatment to you.
If you are determined to be an ideal candidate, we will ask that you stop all waxing and plucking for a few weeks before treatment. On the day of your treatment, we ask that you arrive having just shaved the areas being treated.
Almost any area with hair can be treated. Some of the most common permanent hair removal areas for women include the upper lip, chin, face, bikini/Brazilian, legs, underarms, abdomen, and toes. For men, common areas are beard, ears, neck, back, chest, and hands.
Before the treatment begins, the skin will be cleaned, and you will be asked to wear laser-safe glasses to protect your eyes. Then the Cutera Excel HR device will be gently moved across the treatment area. The device has a built-in sapphire cooling system that delivers a cool wave to the area before it is treated. This allows the area to stay comfortable when the heat from the laser energy is applied.
The heat will enter the hair follicle and safely burn it. This leads to the hair follicle disintegrating and any unwanted hair attached to it falling off. Because the follicle is the root of the hair, once it is destroyed, there will no longer be any new hair growth from the follicle for years to come. After the heat is delivered to the area, a second cooling blast is delivered to cool the area. This cycle is repeated across the treatment area.
