Laser Hair Removal Herndon
Laser Hair Removal in Herndon Virginia is a revolutionary new way to remove unwanted hair. While this innovative procedure can safely and effectively remove unwanted hair with lasting results, there are few things all Herndon patients should know before undergoing Laser Hair Removal. During the treatment, the laser device targets and treats the hair follicles beneath the skin which means that a hair follicle must be present in order to be effectively treated. Oftentimes men and women looking to undergo laser hair removal have utilized other hair removal methods such as waxing, tweezing and depilatory creams. Those who use these methods will have to refrain from doing so for at least two weeks before your first laser treatments. These hair removal methods remove unwanted hair from the hair follicle, so this time period allows for the hair to grow back.
In addition to limiting hair removal to shaving and trimming, we also ask that Herndon patients refrain from sun exposure for at least two weeks before and two weeks after each treatment. The Laser Hair Removal Herndon, VA procedure is most effective when your skin is in its most natural state. The reason for this is the laser light effectively treats hair follicles because it targets and is absorbed by the melanin within the hair. While our hair contains melanin, so does our skin. Therefore, the more contrast there is between hair color and skin tone, the higher the laser settings can be and the more effective your treatment will be. Skin with altered pigmentation that has been exposed to the sun will have to be treated on lower laser settings which will make your treatments much less effective. In order to get the best in Laser Hair Removal treatments, refrain from sun exposure because if you do, you’ll see amazing results.
