What should I do before and after my laser hair removal treatment?

Most patients describe the sensation as a mild snapping or tingling feeling. The level of discomfort varies depending on individual sensitivity and the area being treated. Our advanced lasers have cooling systems to help minimize any discomfort.

The number of sessions required varies depending on individual factors such as hair color, 1 hair thickness, skin type, and the area being treated. Most patients achieve significant hair reduction in 6-8 sessions, spaced several weeks apart.
How does laser hair removal work?
Laser hair removal works by emitting pulses of light energy that are absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair follicle. This energy converts to heat, damaging the follicle and inhibiting future hair growth.
How soon will I see results from lip fillers, and when can I resume normal activities?
You will see the results of lip fillers immediately after the procedure. Some swelling is normal and will subside within a few days. You can typically resume normal activities immediately, but it’s best to avoid strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours.

Common side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection sites. More serious side effects are rare.

How long do Botox results typically last?
The effects of Botox usually last for about 3 to 4 months. Over time, muscle action gradually returns, and lines and wrinkles will reappear, at which point repeat treatments can maintain the desired results.
How does Botox work?
Botox works by temporarily blocking nerve signals to the muscles in the treated area. This prevents the muscles from contracting, which softens existing wrinkles and prevents new ones from forming.
