At Columbus OB/GYN, we know that unwanted body hair can be a source of frustration and self-consciousness for many individuals. We offer laser hair removal as a safe and effective solution to help you achieve long-lasting hair reduction. Our skilled team of professionals utilizes advanced laser technology to target and remove unwanted hair, leaving you with smooth, hair-free skin.
Understanding Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive procedure that uses concentrated beams of light to target and destroy hair follicles. The laser energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicles, which damages their ability to grow new hair. This results in a gradual reduction in hair growth over multiple treatment sessions.
Determining Candidacy and Personalizing Treatment
During your initial consultation at Columbus OB/GYN, our experienced providers will evaluate your skin type, hair color, and medical history to determine if laser hair removal is suitable for you.
We will discuss your expectations, goals, and any concerns you may have. It’s important to note that laser hair removal is most effective on individuals with darker hair and lighter skin tones. However, technological advancements have made it possible to treat a wider range of skin and hair types.
The Laser Hair Removal Procedure
1
Preparation
Prior to the procedure, it is important to avoid sun exposure and tanning beds to minimize the risk of complications. Shave the treatment area a day or two before the appointment, as the laser targets the hair follicle beneath the skin’s surface.
2
Treatment
During the procedure, you will be provided with protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the laser light. The laser device will be applied to the treatment area, emitting short pulses of laser energy. You may experience a slight tingling or snapping sensation, but most individuals tolerate the procedure well.\
3
Post-Treatment Care
After the laser hair removal session, you may experience mild redness or temporary skin sensitivity in the treated area. These effects typically subside within a few hours. It is important to follow any post-treatment instructions provided by our team, including avoiding sun exposure and using sunscreen to protect the treated skin.
