Laser Hair Removal Q & A

Who is a good candidate for laser hair removal?

The Art of Natural Beauty by Khrom Aesthetics’s advanced lasers work on all skin types thanks to technology that adjusts to each patient’s skin tone. Five distinct laser technologies are utilized to customize treatment to each patient and body area. Laser hair removal works best on dark hair; it will not effectively remove blonde, red, or gray hair. Laser hair removal cannot be performed on individuals who have been treated with Accutane within the past 12 months.

What should be expected during treatment? Will it hurt?

During treatment, the technician will apply the laser to shaved skin in the areas where hair reduction is desired. Most patients report a stinging sensation similar to being snapped with a rubber band. A numbing gel may be applied to help alleviate discomfort in sensitive areas. Minor redness and swelling of the treated area are common immediately following the procedure, but should dissipate within 24 hours.

Hair may appear to grow quickly in the treated area in the days following the treatment; this is actually the skin expelling the dead hair follicles. Gentle exfoliation can help loosen and remove these hairs. Hair in the treated areas will continue to fall out for up to two weeks. New growth will be thinner and less prone to ingrown hairs.

How many sessions will be needed for permanent results?

Typically six–eight laser sessions are required to permanently remove hair from an area. Sessions should be scheduled four–six weeks apart for best results. For some patients, minor hair regrowth may occur following successful treatment due to factors such as hormonal imbalance or medical condition. The Art of Natural Beauty by Khrom Aesthetics offers packages that include maintenance sessions to keep skin smooth and hair free for the long-term.

What should be avoided during treatments?

Before and between laser hair removal sessions, plucking and other depilatory hair removal methods should not be used. Shaving is allowed. Hair removal cannot be performed on a recently tanned skin, so tanning or the use of artificial tanning products should be avoided during the two weeks prior to treatment.

Hi my name is doctor Tatiana Khrom. I’m a board-certified dermatologist and medical director of the Art of Natural Beauty by Khrom Aesthetics. Today I wanted to share my excitement about the best-in-class laser hair removal device that we use here at Art of Natural Beauty by Khrom Aesthetics. The gentle max pro by candela. There are three main reasons why I absolutely love this device for my patients. One, the device is safe and effective for all skin types. That means that any skin colour and any type of hair besides completely blonde hair can be treated safely and effectively by the gentle max pro. The second reason why I absolutely love the gentle max pro is the cryogenic cooling patented by candela. The cryogenic cooling is used to protect the epidermis, which is the uppermost layer of the skin, and this makes the treatments extremely safe and very comfortable for my patients. Three, the third reason I absolutely love the gentle max pro is its versatility. In addition to safely and effectively removing unwanted hair on any skin type we can also use this device for rejuvenation of skin removal of unwanted pigment and treatment of redness. I am proud to say that at A&B, by Khrom aesthetics all our laser technicians have years of experience and all of them love working on the gentle max pro. Why? Well, they’ll tell you themselves. The final reason why I’m excited to work with the gentle max pro is that I have total confidence in the company who made it. Candela has been an invaluable laser company to work with. Its clinical managers, its trainers and the reps have been amazing. I am so confident in the efficacy and safety of the gentle max pro that I’m not only the owner of the device, but I’m also a client. I’m about to get my treatment started come on.
