4 Benefits Of Laser Hair Removal

Many women choose to remove the hair on their legs, bikini area, underarms, and upper lip through shaving or waxing. While both of these methods can remove hair for a short period of time, the hair will always grow back and the hair removal process will have to be done again. Women who value soft, smooth, hair-free skin may want to consider laser hair removal to take care of pesky body hair. There are many benefits to laser hair removal, such as:

Save Money in the Long Run

Laser hair removal does require an upfront investment, and most women require several sessions to completely remove the hair in their area of choice. But after the laser hair removal procedures are completed, the effects are permanent. The cost of razors and shaving cream can add up, but when you have laser hair removal done you can either stop buying them, or just use them less often on other body parts. Anyone who gets waxing services in a salon knows that it can be expensive to do every few weeks, but you can say goodbye to costly waxing appointments at the salon when you have laser hair removal done. Over the years after having laser hair removal, there is a good chance that the procedures will pay for themselves and even save you money in the long run.

Prevent Ingrown Hairs

Ingrown hairs occur when hair is broken off at the tip and does not grow out properly from the hair follicle. At a minimum, ingrown hairs can be unsightly, but it is also possible for ingrown hairs to become infected and be quite painful. Laser hair removal works by using a concentrated laser beam that heats up hair follicles and prevents hair from growing. Since the hair is not being broken off from the follicle, there is typically a much lower chance of ingrown hairs occurring.

No Recovery Period

Some women do experience minor discomfort during the laser hair removal sessions, but there is no recovery period or down time needed afterwards. No sticky lotions or gels are used, and you won't walk around with bruises or broken blood vessels after a laser hair removal session. Unlike some cosmetic procedures, you can have a laser hair removal session during your lunch break, and immediately return to work afterwards with no negative side effects. 

Improved Self Esteem

Some women naturally have thick body hair, which can make them feel uncomfortable or self-conscious. If you are one of these women, laser hair removal can solve this problem and boost your self esteem. If you have lived with excess body hair your whole life, you will likely be amazed by the results after several sessions. Contact Dolce vita Medical Spa & Salon to learn more.
