Say Goodby to Your Razor with Laser Hair Removal
Would you like to say goodbye to the drudgery of shaving, waxing, or using messy creams to remove unwanted body hair? Would you like to know your skin is being treated by a fully-qualified skin doctor who has your overall systemic health in mind? Then, investigate a wonderful aesthetic service called laser hair removal. Provided by Dr. Jacqueline Silkey in her Kaysville, UT, office, laser hair removal safely achieves a soft smooth look to areas of unwanted hair with no pain and no downtime.
How Laser Hair Removal Works
After reviewing your medical history and visually examining your skin, Dr. Silkey applies a special numbing cream to the areas you wish treated. Typically, people want hair removed from their upper lips, backs, chest, bikini lines, underarms, and legs.
After the cream has worked for about 30 minutes, doctor, patient, and any assistants don protective eye wear, and the treatment begins. The Soprano ICE cool touch laser treats each hair follicle individually, delivering a focused beam of light which inactivates, or kills, the follicle.
As the doctor works through the various areas, patients rest comfortably. The size of the treated area determines how long the service takes. Afterwards, the skin may feel somewhat sensitive and look puffy and red, just as if you had a very mild sunburn.
Afterwards, patients resume their normal activities, and they enjoy noticeably less hair. It is highly recommended to stay away from tanning and sun exposure and to use sunscreen to avoid further skin irritation.
In all, most laser hair removal patients in Kaysville need two to six treatments, says the American Academy of Dermatology. While there may be some very gradual regrowth of fine hair, the treated areas generally stay hair-free for several months to years.
Is Laser Hair Removal Safe?
Because your procedure will be performed by Dr. Silkey personally, you can count on an infection- and blister-free experience. Also, people of all skin tones and hair color can benefit from laser hair removal because of the many advancements in laser technology.
