Laser Hair Removal in Atlanta, GA

Laser hair removal has become one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in America. It's a convenient way for the long-term reduction or removal of unwanted hair on the body and face. This treatment frequently leaves the skin looking and feeling smoother while providing longer-lasting results compared to other hair removal methods.

Terry Seymour at ENT Facial Plastics and Sleep Disorder Center in Atlanta and Lithonia, GA performs safe and fast laser hair removal treatments for both men and women in frequently needed areas, such as the back, legs, arms, face, armpits, and bikini area.

Hair removal with a laser is a safe process that is helpful for many people. In your consultation, you will go over your concerns, needs, and goals to help determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure. Ideal patients for laser hair removal:

• Want to reduce hair on their face or body
• Are tired of other techniques for hair removal (shaving, waxing, bleaching, depilatory creams)
• Have dark hair and light skin
• Are in good, overall physical health

On the day of your laser hair removal appointment, you can relax in one of our treatment rooms as the needed areas of your skin are cleaned to remove dirt, oil, and moisturizers. During laser hair removal, someone from our team will slightly stretch the skin to create a clear pathway between the hair follicle root and the laser. The laser's energy will target and kill the hair follicle, which stops the hair from growing back. Typically, you will need 3 – 5 sessions over a period of 3 – 4 weeks to see your optimal results. Your sessions will be staggered to allow the affected areas a chance to recover. It also allows time for follicles that were in the dormant phase of growth to cycle into the active growth phase so the laser can be effective. The revolutionary laser technology we use is able to target only the hair follicle, preserving the skin in the treatment area. While this procedure is relatively gentle in nature, the treated areas of your skin may look like they have a mild sunburn where lasers are used. After your treatment, you are free to resume all normal activities, but you may want to avoid strenuous activity for a day. Following your session, we suggest soothing creams or cold packs to treat any mild discomfort.
