WHAT TO EXPECT FROM LASER HAIR REMOVAL

In Order to Remove The Hair, This Laser Targets The Bulb Of The Hair Which We Know As The Hair Follicle

In order for the laser to be able to penetrate it must be able to ‘see’ melanin, so the darker your hair is, the better results you will receive. Unfortunately, due to needing to have darker pigmented hair to be able make the hair follicle dormant, grey and blonde hair cannot be treated. Many Lorton & Woodbridge, VA laser hair removal patients who are new to this treatment worry about pain, but advances in technology have made this treatment practically painless, although everyone’s pain tolerance is different. The GentleMAX Pro uses cryogen that helps to alleviate the heat of the laser. Clients are comfortable enough to not need numbing and are very happy with their treatment results. 
In most cases, there is no downtime; you can resume your daily routine after the procedure. Side effects like mild inflammation, redness, tenderness, swelling, and stinging or tingling (like from a sunburn) may be experienced, but these typically are mild and usually subside by the end of the day. On average clients will need 10-12 treatments in order to see optimal results. Depending on how your body is responding, there are times where you will need to do more treatments. There are multiple factors on why this can happen like hormones, having very thick hair, or not staying consistent in your treatment plan.
