LASER HAIR REMOVAL (激光脱毛)

Overview

Unwanted facial or body hair can be frustrating and embarrassing. Traditional hair removal methods, like shaving and waxing, are effective, but they can be time-consuming, tedious, and require significant upkeep. Laser hair removal can give you the freedom and confidence of long-term, smooth, hairless skin.

How Does Forever Bare BBLâ„¢ Work to Remove Hair?

we offer Forever Bare BBLâ„¢ laser hair removal therapy as a non-invasive, comfortable, and easy treatment for unwanted body hair. Forever Bare BBLâ„¢ directs intense pulses of light at unwanted hair. The light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, damaging the hair follicles and preventing new hair growth.

Our hair grows in phases, so individual strands complete their life cycles at different times. Laser hair removal can only treat hairs in their active growth phase. So, multiple treatments are required to ensure each follicle is properly treated.

After each treatment, the treated hair will begin to shed, and your hair loss will be most

What is a Laser Hair Removal Treatment Like?

Before your Forever Bare BBL™ treatment, you will be asked to avoid direct sun exposure for at least four weeks. You will also be asked to abstain from using self-tanning lotions. You should not wax, tweeze or use hair removal lotions for 2-4 weeks before the treatment, and the day before your treatment, you will need to shave the area to be treated with a razor. This may seem counterintuitive – but this step allows the laser to focus directly on the follicle, leaving the remaining skin unharmed.

On the day of your appointment, one of our staff members will guide you into a private room, where your skin will be prepped, and your treatment can begin. Laser hair removal is fast and simple. Your appointment time will vary depending on the size and number of areas being completed.

Forever Bare BBL’s™ innovative technology allows it to be a comfortable and effective hair removal laser. The laser’s handpiece contains a sapphire plate that provides continuous cooling to the skin, making the treatment much more comfortable. You may still experience a small amount of discomfort during the treatment and a feeling similar to a rubber band lightly snapping against the skin.

Is There Any Downtime with Laser Hair Removal?

There is very minimal downtime and recovery after a laser hair removal treatment. After your treatment, you may experience some redness, burning, warmth, and a sunburned sensation that can last for a few hours. You can use Tylenol or Advil as needed and apply cool compresses to your skin.

For a few weeks after laser hair removal, your skin will be more sensitive to the sun, so if there is a chance of sun exposure, protect treated areas with a full spectrum sunblock with SPF 30 or higher.

What Results Can I Expect with Forever Bare BBLâ„¢?

Soon after a Forever Bare BBL™ treatment, the treated hairs begin to appear thicker. This is the hair’s normal reaction to the laser light energy it has absorbed. The hair then begins to shed, and hair loss will be most evident ten days to two weeks post-treatment. Treatments are typically completed every 6-8 weeks, and most patients notice visibly sparser hair after three treatments. Throughout the course of your treatments, you will notice your hair becomes thinner, lighter, and grows more slowly. Around three weeks after your final treatment, you will see your final results.

Your unwanted hair will be significantly reduced, leaving you with smooth, hairless skin. If any stray hairs appear over time, they will grow much finer and lighter than before your laser treatments. While the results from laser hair removal are long-lasting, you may choose to undergo further treatments periodically to maintain or touch up your results. Many patients choose to touch up their results with a laser hair removal treatment once a year.
