PROfiles Laser Hair Removal

Why consider Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal treats unwanted and embarrassing hair on all areas of the face or body, including upper lip, cheeks, chin, arms, legs, bikini area, chest and back. Our Elosâ„¢ technology combines radiofrequency and light energies to achieve permanent hair reduction for both men and women. All skin types and many hair colors, even light colored hair may be treated.

How it's done
Treatments are performed every two months for twelve months, in order to treat and eliminate as many hairs follicles as possible during their growth phase. The treatments are usually performed under topical anesthesia with the use of a cold air (chiller) blower for comfort.

Expectations
Permanent reduction in unwanted hair is accomplished over the course of treatment series.

Side Effects/Risks
Short term side effects such as pain, hair pulling sensation during treatments, redness, mild burning or discoloration of the skin are possible. Rarer side effects include damage to the natural skin texture, scarring, keloids and permanent discoloration.

Healing Process
Following treatment, sun screen should be used regularly on exposed treated areas.
