How does laser hair removal work?

 To understand laser hair removal, here are some helpful hair growth stages you need to understand:
Hair growth happens in 3 distinct stages:

• Anagen stage which is the active growing stage
• Catagen stage where the hair stops growing and detaches from the blood supply. This hair is referred to as club hair.
• Telogen where the club hair sticks to the roots, giving way for new hair to grow under it.

Now, because laser hair removal only works on hair in the growing phase you need several appointments to completely get rid of unwanted hair. Our technician will guide you on the number of treatments depending on your hair growth cycle.

Does laser hair removal work?

Absolutely! Laser hair removal is the most effective and safest way to remove unwanted hair. All you need is to show up for all your laser hair removal appointments as directed by the hair removal expert.

Is laser hair removal safe?

Yes. Laser hair removal is safe on most skin tones. The laser method works on the hair follicle, eliminating hair from the roots without harming your skin.
Also, we only use top-quality lasers and have the best practitioners to handle your hair removal process.

How long does laser hair removal take?

This depends on the part of the body the laser hair removal expert will be working on. For instance, it takes as little as 10 minutes for underarm treatment.

How many laser treatments do I need to completely get rid of unwanted hair?

For most people, it takes 7 to 10 treatments to remove 95% of unwanted hair. Once you complete the treatments, you’ll no longer need additional treatments or touchups for life.

How should I prepare for laser hair removal?

• Take a shower to get rid of oils, creams, and fragrances before your appointment.
  
• Shave the area to be treated 24 hours before your laser hair removal appointment. Avoid waxing, tweezing, or using any chemical depilatories in between laser treatments.
  
• 2 weeks to your treatment, avoid exposing yourself to the sun. If you must, use high-quality sunscreen lotion.
  
• If you are taking any medications that can interfere with the treatment, inform us before your appointment. This way, we can reschedule your laser hair removal to a later date.
  

How much does laser hair removal cost in Ogden?

• Area being treated: smaller areas like the armpits will cost less compared to large areas like the back and chest region.
• Number of treatments required: to completely get rid of all unwanted hair, you need several treatments. The number of treatments will determine the overall cost of your laser hair removal treatment.
• Your hair color: though laser hair removal works better on darker hair, it will still work on light-colored hair. However, you’ll pay less for darker hair as the process is easier compared to laser treatment on lighter hair.
• Your skin color: if you are dark-skinned, laser hair removal will be more difficult as your skin may absorb laser energy resulting in burns.

For this reason, the technician will need to use less energy which means more treatments for best results. Remember, the more the treatments, the higher the cost of Ogden laser hair removal.
