One of the most important parts about getting yourself ready for another summer season is making sure you have hair-free skin to compliment the cute bikini you just ordered. Sure, you can drag a razor over your skin or viciously rip the hair out with hot wax, but you’re risking unsightly bumps and leftover hair that make you look worse than you did before.
The good news is that there’s another option — one that’s safe, effective, and permanent. Add Dr. Tanya Lawson at Inbloom Health + Medispa to your beauty team, and her laser hair removal methods will have your skin beach-ready in no time.
Why do you even have unwanted hair?
There are only a few places you actually want hair, and even then you spend countless hours pruning and grooming it. So why do you have hair anywhere other than desirable places like your head and eyebrows? While all humans have hair virtually from head to toe, there’s a reason you might have a bit more hair than you’d care for.
It all comes down to the hormones in your body. A hormone disorder called hirsutism occurs when you overproduce testosterone, resulting in unwanted or excess hair on your face and body. Some medications and conditions like adrenal gland disorders or polycystic ovary syndrome can also be to blame for your surplus of hair.
How laser hair removal gets rid of unwanted hair
Whether you’ve got a forest of hair growing on your body, or you just need to clean up your edges, laser hair removal is right for you. Here’s how it works:
Your hair is like an iceberg. You only see a little bit (the hair shaft) on the surface of your skin. Below the top layer of your skin is the hair follicle and bulb. This is where the hair anchors itself firmly into your skin. Shaving merely cuts the shaft temporarily, and waxing only removes the hair from its roots.
Dr. Lawson uses Cutera® Xeo®— the best in laser hair removal technology. Xeo delivers the power of laser energy directly into the hair follicle, heating it and destroying it. This means the follicle can no longer support the growth of replacement hair. You’re left with hairless skin that’s ready to be shown off.
You might be wondering what the catch is. We’re happy to tell you there isn’t one. Laser hair removal is far less painful than razor burn and hot wax. You might experience a slight pinch or sting as the hair is treated, but the Xeo system has a built-in cooling function to keep you comfortable during your session.
While some coarse or dense hair might need a few more treatments, you can walk away sure that your hair won’t be coming back next summer. Xeo can also treat almost every type of hair on your body. From your bristly bikini line to the fair hairs on your upper lip, Xeo is both powerful and gentle enough to tackle them all.
Your treatment might leave you a little pink and swollen for a short time, but with Dr. Lawson’s recommended aftercare skincare regimen, you’ll be able to enjoy your smooth, flawless skin very quickly.
Don’t wait another minute. Make your first outing in the summer sun hair-free with laser hair removal. For more information or to schedule your first treatment, call our office at (603) 818-8777 or schedule an appointment online.
