Why is laser hair removal the best solution?

Our Clinic, located in Mississauga, uses 2 different type of  laser hair removal systems to maximize the effectiveness of the hair removal process. Each system works on a different wavelength, thus targeting more than one type of hair or skin type. The laser hair removal procedure offers effective results while maintaining the normal appearance of the skin. It uses the best technology currently available for laser hair removal, offering outstanding results with the widest range of skin tones and hair colours.
The laser beam penetrates your skin and gets absorbed in the hair follicle residing under the skin surface. The laser energy destroys the hair follicle with the heat that it generates. Because the laser beam is large in diameter, it affects a large number of hair simultaneously.

What can I expect during the laser hair removal treatment?
Before the laser hair removal treatment, it is important to make sure that any long unwanted hair is cut, flush with the skin. Patients agree that the procedure is not unduly painful, and certainly much less uncomfortable than electrolysis.
To reduce discomfort, the laser hair removal system is equiped with a cooling mechanism that automatically removes heat from the surface of your skin before, during and after the laser hair removal process. You will not need a general anaesthesia or pain medication, but a topical anaesthetic cream may be applied to sensitive areas.

Is laser hair removal permanent?
At SKINN Laser Clinic, we only use laser hair removal systems that are approved for permanent hair removal & reduction by the United States Federal Drug Administration, and by the Canadian Food and Drug agency. This means most patients will achieve long-term, stable reduction in the number of hairs re-growing in the treated areas. The amount of permanent reduction increases with the number of laser hair removal treatments. Occasionally, you may have a few hairs regrow over a period of time.

How long do a laser hair removal treatment take?
Laser hair removal procedure can treat some areas in only a few minutes. Others, such as the back or legs, require 20-40 minutes. For example, laser hair removal of the underarms or bikini lines take only fifteen minutes or less.

What should I expect following the laser hair removal treatment?
Once the laser hair removal treatment is complete, the area exposed to the laser is cleansed and you are free to return to your normal routine. Some patients may experience a slight reddening around the hair follicles following the laser hair removal treatment, which typically disappears within few minutes. It is always recommended to avoid sun exposure or to use sunscreen following the laser hair treatment.

Hair follicles affected by the laser hair removal treatment are lifeless and your body will attempt to cast them off over a period of time. It will seem that the hair continues to grow for one to two weeks after the procedure, but in fact these lifeless hairs will easily fall out.

Can you treat darker skin colours?
