Shaving and waxing are the most common means of removing unwanted hair from the body. However, though common, these methods are far from comfortable. Razor burn and the irritation caused by waxing are regular realities that most of us have to contend with. Thankfully, alternatives do exist and we’re happy to provide one at Healing Light Aesthetics. Using our powerful Elite iQ™ Laser Hair Reduction system, our team can effectively remove your hair with minimal discomfort.
What Causes Unwanted Hair?
The amount of unwanted hair on your body is mainly determined by your hormone levels. The main hormones responsible for hair quantity are called androgens. These hormones control the density of body hair after puberty and are more active in men. The more androgens you have, the thicker, darker, and more visible your hair will be. For those who have sensitive skin, having an excessive amount of body hair can cause quite a bit of skin irritation. At Healing Light Aesthetics, we provide laser hair reduction that can eliminate unwanted body hair without aggressive irritation.
What Are the Signs?
Ingrown hairs, blackheads, and redness can be common in those who have both a lot of body hair and sensitive skin. Hair regrowth after shaving can be especially itchy and uncomfortable for those with these types of issues. If you often forego shaving due to the discomfort this method causes, our Elite iQ™ Laser Hair Reduction may be the right choice. This device can accurately assess your skin type and adjust to better treat your unique skin needs.
Elite iQ™ Laser Hair Reduction Treatment
The Elite iQ™ Laser Hair Reduction system offered at our Rutland center involves the use of the Skintel® Melanin Reader to identify your skin type and allow for accurate treatment. Once we have an accurate reading of your melanin content, we then use a handheld device to target areas of unwanted hair and deliver effective reduction. The Elite iQ™’s handpiece addresses individual hair follicles, delivering heat directly to their core and preventing them from growing new hair. Most sessions with this system last between 15-30 minutes depending on the size of your treatment area and result in no downtime.
