WHAT IS LASER HAIR REMOVAL?
Laser hair removal surgery, is a non- surgical laser treatment that uses a laser to target unwanted hair by destroying the root of the hair follicle. It does this by heating the follicole up using a light beam that over time and with repeat laser sessions destroys the hair follicle which can not repair itself leaving smooth hair free skin. Laser hair removal is safe for all skin types however, proper pre-care and post-care should be followed to ensure results and avoid skin damage.

LASER HAIR REMOVAL SURGERY BEFORE AND AFTER
Our before and afters of laser hair remoal surgery below demonstrate results after a minimum of 6 sessions. At VIVA we have chosen FDA approved laser system by Cynosure, for its powerful effective and yet safe laser. The Cynosure Elite+ is a ND:YAG and Alexandrite laser making it safe for all skin colors.
HOW LASER HAIR REMOVAL SURGERY WORKS
Laser hair removal surgery works by emitting a focused laser beam such as an ND:YAG that has a wavelength attracted to hair follicles- or pigment. The laser detects the contrast of hair from the skin and targets each hair strand per pulse. Laser is not as effective on blonde hair because the wavelength or engery emitted is attracted to darker piment such as brown or black hair. Once the hair follicle has been warmed up by the laser it is destroyed and falls out. The body has three stages of hair growth, catagen, anagen and telogen. Each phase must be treated during laser hair surgery to ensure all remaining hair is targeted to avoid patchy results.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM LASER HAIR REMOVAL TREATMENT
At your laser hair removal surgery appointment you can expect to have a face to face consultation with you laser therapist to review important safety pre-cautions such as wearing safety glasses and check the hair growoth and thickness of the area you are interested in treating. During the treatment you may feel a slight warm sensation followed by a blast of cool air while the laser is pulsed accross the treatment area. Your therapist will mark out the area of treatment to ensure you are happy and confirm this is where you would like the hair removed. After your laser hair removal surgery or laser hair removal treatment, your skin may be pink or red and tender. This is normal and will subside. Using a cool gel or aloe vera gel can help the discomfort to cool the area.
