How Does It Work?

The Light Sheer Diode laser energy transfers to the hair pigment melanin, damaging the follicle. You will shave before the treatment to ensure the skin’s surface melanin is not damaged.

What To Expect Before & After

Before your treatment, a topical numbing cream will be applied to help with any discomfort the laser may cause. The laser will be adjusted depending on several different factors: skin type, hair color and thickness, and location of hair removal. Your technician will then send pulses of light from the laser to the target area.

Afterwards, you may feel some discomfort for a day or two in the treated area which ice packs, cool water, and anti-inflammatory creams can help soothe. It is most commonly described as feeling like a sunburn. Your next appointment can then be scheduled 4-6 weeks after and treatments will continue until the desired effect is achieved.
