Laser hair removal is an increasingly popular treatment, due to the demand for smooth skin. Lasers have come a long way and Pure Cosmetics keeps up with the latest medical-grade lasers to eliminate unwanted hair, while keeping you as comfortable as possible. Please see below for our frequently answered questions.
Am I a good candidate for Laser Hair Removal?
We are able to treat every skin type on virtually any surface of the body, as long as the hair is darker in pigment. Unfortunately, those with red, blonde or gray hairs are unable to be treated with laser hair removal due to the follicle having no pigment. We require new patient consultations for every patient to make sure you are not on any medications or do not have a past medical history that is contraindicated for laser treatments.
Does it hurt?
Our highly-trained, certified laser technicians put the safety and effectiveness of every treatment first and foremost. We try to minimize any discomfort by using technology equipped with cooling tips, ice balls, and a thin layer of gel. Although specific technique may vary from technician to technician, please let your technician know if you are experiencing any discomfort so that they may adjust accordingly.
Small areas of treatment include the chin, upper lip, nape of neck, partial abdomen ("happy trail"), hands and fingers, feet and toes or between the brows.
Large areas of treatment include the chin and neck, forearms, abdomen, full bikini, shoulders, lower back or upper arms.
Medium areas of treatment include a partial bikini, sides of face, lip and chin, or underarms.
Extra-large areas of treatment include men's chest and abdomen, full back, lower legs and knees, and thighs and partial bikini.
