Ideal candidates for laser hair removal treatments:

how does laser hair removal work?
At your appointment, you will be asked to relax in one of our private patient rooms as the treatment areas on your skin are cleansed to eliminate oil, dirt, and lotions. During the procedure, Dr. Anees or one of our laser technicians will smooth out the area to provide a direct pathway between the root of the hair follicle and the laser. The energy from the LightSheer Duet laser will gently target and destroy the hair follicle, which prevents the hair from growing again. Usually, you will need 3 – 5 laser hair removal sessions spaced out about 3 – 4 weeks apart to achieve your optimal results. Your appointments will be spaced out to give the affected areas a chance to heal. This also allows time for follicles that were in the dormant phase to move to an active hair growth phase so they can be successfully treated. The revolutionary laser technology we use at Med Spa at Seena One (Corrective Skin Care)targets only the hair follicle, preserving the skin and other tissue in the treatment area while increasing comfort and optimizing hair removal results for Fort Worth and Burleson, TX clients.
how long is recovery after laser hair removal?
While laser hair removal is relatively gentle, the treated areas of your skin may feel slightly irritated or sunburned. However, most individuals only report feeling a warm, snapping sensation during the procedure. After your laser hair removal session, you are free to resume your daily activities, but you should avoid strenuous activity and sun exposure for 24 hours to let the skin heal. After laser hair removal, we recommend applying soothing creams or cold packs to minimize any discomfort.

How much does laser hair removal cost?
A laser hair removal treatment varies in cost, depending on the coverage area being addressed on the body, as well as how many treatment sessions you will need to get a smooth result. When you consider the benefits of choosing laser hair removal, think of the energy and time you are spending on shaving, waxing, or other temporary hair removal methods. In comparison, laser hair removal in most cases is ultimately more cost-effective and will save you energy and time in the long-run. During your consultation, we will create a custom treatment plan with the number of sessions you need and provide pricing information. Our in-house membership plan can also provide cost-savings on laser hair removal procedures.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
Laser hair removal is an effective treatment that can deliver long-lasting results for patients. While men and women may enjoy the benefits of the procedure for several years, laser hair removal is technically semi-permanent as some hair follicles may be unaffected. However, many clients find that most of their hair follicles are no longer active following laser procedures and the few hairs that do pop up here and there are easy to remove. Additional laser treatments may also be scheduled to take care of any stragglers or new growth if needed.
Why do I need multiple laser hair removal sessions?
Follicles grow in cycles. When some follicles are growing, other follicles are resting. Since each follicle is in various stages, several treatment sessions are usually recommended to target each hair follicle when it is active. Scheduling your treatments over several weeks helps you get the smoothest, most effective result.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
The process of laser hair removal may cause a minor unpleasant sensation, but the advanced LightSheer Duet laser that we use is designed to enhance comfort during the procedure. Most patients feel a small snap as the laser targets and removes each follicle. Our team may use a numbing ointment on your skin prior to the treatment to minimize this sensation. Clients generally report that laser hair removal is far more comfortable than waxing services.
Which laser is best to remove hair?
While there are many great laser systems available, Med Spa at Seena One (Corrective Skin Care)offers the latest hair removal technology for women and men with most hair colors and skin types. The laser we invested in delivers impressive results, but we will continue to upgrade our office as different lasers enter the marketplace. Ask us for more information on our Lumenis LightSheer Duet system during your consult.
How can I prepare for laser hair removal?
There are a few ways to prepare for laser hair removal, including avoiding sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanning products for at least two weeks before your treatment. This can help reduce the risk of skin damage and ensure that the laser is able to target the hair follicles effectively. Med Spa at Seena One will provide additional preparation instructions to ensure the best results from laser treatment.
