A treatment can take as little as a few minutes to as long as an hour, depending on the treatment area and the condition being treated. Both legs can often be treated in as few as 15 minutes.
Some patients may feel slight discomfort, which has been compared to snapping a rubber band against the skin. This discomfort resolves quickly and is minimized by Gentle’s Dynamic Cooling Device.
Multiple treatments are required to achieve the full hair removal effect because hair grows in three stages. The hairs on your body are not always at the same stage, so you’ll need to undergo a few treatments, an average of six weeks apart, to catch them all in the growth stage.
For about six weeks prior to your treatment, you should avoid plucking, electrolysis or waxing. On the day of your treatment, skin should be clean-shaven and thoroughly cleansed of any makeup, creams, oils, topical anesthetics or self-tanning products. Apply sunblock (SPF 30 or above) before your treatment. Do not expose the treated area to sunlight or tanning booth light prior to or immediately after treatment. If you have a history of herpes simplex virus, a prophylactic antiviral therapy may be prescribed.
A cool compress or gel pack may be applied for additional comfort after your treatment. Any redness or swelling should resolve in a few hours. After your treatment, prevent sun exposure by applying sunblock (SPF 30 or above). In the first few days after the treatment, don’t scrub or rinse the treated area with abrasive skin cleansers. Your laser hair removal specialist my advise additional precautions.
Permanent side effects are rare and include redness, swelling, hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation, blistering and purpura (laser bruise) in the treated area– these usually do not last more than a few days. Your laser specialist will have more information about potential side effects.
