Laser Hair Removal focuses highly concentrated laser light which targets pigment. Highly concentrated laser light is focused on the vessels/veins the client wants to remove. The light is absorbed by the pigment in the veins and vessels, which ultimately destroys them.

Before your first treatment, you will come in for an initial consultation where we will discuss realistic expectations, explain how vessel removal works, contraindications, and how your skin is affected.
If you have not already done so you, you will fill out Forms (which you can bring with you when you come in or fill out in office), and set up your schedule. If you are in compliance with the pre-treatment instructions and have no contraindications (see below), we may be able to do your treatment the same day. Alternatively, you may have a test patch performed to determine the most effective and safest settings for you and your skin. After this, an appointment will be made for your full Nd Yag treatment.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
(2) Before Your Treatment
-
- Fill out all relevant forms on our FORMS page.
- Make sure to stay out of the sun and tanning booths for 2 weeks for YAG laser facial/leg vessels treatments
- Be sure you are not taking any medications that might make you sun sensitive such as antibiotics or Retin-A products for 1-2 weeks prior to your treatment.
- No harsh products (acids/exfoliants/NAIR/bleaching creams/sunless tanners) 1 week prior to your appointment.
- For vessel removal clients:
– No Vitamin E, fish oils, or over-the-counter blood thinners (such as aspirin, advil – which must be discontinued 7 days prior to treatment).
– No prescription blood thinners at all. (Prescription blood thinners are a complete contraindication, and you are not a candidate for this treatment.)
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask us when you call to make your appointment or anytime afterward.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
(3) First Treatment
At your service appointment, you and your laser technician will wear safety eyewear to protect your eyes from the laser light, and your laser technician will guide the laser to the treatment areas with a small handpiece. Each laser pulse will be preceded by a short pulse of cooling spray to help alleviate any discomfort you might feel during the procedure. Some patients are more sensitive than others, and be sure to discuss pain management with us if it is a concern of yours. For some patients, a topical anesthetic may be used prior to treatment.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
(4) What To Expect
A treatment could take as little as a few minutes to as long as an hour, depending on the area and condition being treated. The number of sessions depends on the treatment you require and the condition of your skin. Many factors impact the efficacy of individual laser treatments, including the severity of the condition being treated, your ability to stick to the prescribed appointment schedule to maximize treatment benefit, and following safety guidelines. All of these things will be discussed with you in greater length during your thorough initial consultation.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
(5) Post-Treatment
- Avoid exercising for 2-3 days (vein/vessel removal)
- Avoid tanning booths and sun exposure (no change in color of skin) post-treatment, and wear sunblock (SPF 40+) for 2 weeks for vessel/vein removal clients.
- Book your followup appointment before you leave so that you can remain compliant with your hair removal/vessel removal schedule for best results.
Additional post-treatment instructions will be given to you at the time of your first treatment and are always available on our Forms page.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
