At Essential Relaxation we use FormaTek Alpha platform for laser hair removal; the Gold Standard for the one of the fastest, safest and most comfortable laser procedure on the market. This laser is considered a real game changer in the field because several factors. The majority of laser hair removal treatments can be difficult for patients to tolerate, due to long treatment times, discomfort during the procedure and risk for adverse effects. The science behind  Alpha allows for successful treatment at a lower fluence (or energy). This provides hair removal at the same efficacy as other lasers, but with much lower levels of discomfort during treatment and risks of adverse side effects. The laser produces a beam of highly concentrated light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair which converts it into heat and causes thermal damage to the follicle to disable it from growing again. Your hair grows in three different phases. Laser hair removal is most effective when the hairs are in the anagen phase, known as the active growth cycle. Not all of the hairs are in in this phase as the same time, therefore, several treatments are necessary to achieve permanent reduction. After the hair has been treated, the hair will shed over a period of 14 days, leaving you with a hair-free period of up to two  to 4four weeks, depending on the area. The next cycle will return in time for your next scheduled appointment. The results are fabulous!!!


Additional Information

 


 

What do I need to do pre-treatment?

  • Do not wax or pluck for at least six weeks before your treatment date (you may shave during this period).
  • Avoid direct sunlight (as well as artificial tanning creams, sprays, or tanning beds) for at least two weeks before treatment
  • Don’t apply makeup, skincare products, or perfume the day or your procedure (treated areas need to free of chemical products)
  • Shave the area to be treated a day or two before each treatment, laser works best with a 5 O'clock shadow this allows the laser light energy to be directed to the hair follicles without the hairs interfering. 
  • Do not bleach any area being treated for two weeks prior to each treatment
  • Do not use any active ingredients 5-7 day prior to the treatment

 

What to expect after a laser treatment?

Immediately after treatment, you will still find hairs present however they will start to fall out in the hours and days following treatment. One thing that can cause post treatment confusion is that the laser hair removal process does not physically remove individual hairs that are present. Instead, it damages the follicles to prevent future growth. Do not try to accelerate this process by scrubbing the treated area or by plucking out individual hairs.

  • You may apply an ice pack post treatment if you are experiencing any discomfort
  • Do not scrub the treated area AT ALL
  • Apply sunscreen for the following two weeks, do not allow the treated area in direct sunlight
  • Call if any blisters or scabs develop
