How to get a Bare and Smooth body

Monday, March 21, 2011

I'd like to have hair-free legs, is it possible and how long will it take? 
 
Yes, it is possible with Laser Hair Reduction and in just two treatments you will notice a reduction in hair growth. On average a series of 6-8 treatments every 8-12 weeks to treat any body area. You will be well on your way in no time to smooth silky legs.

Can men have Laser Hair Reduction treatments done?
Yes, actually it is very common for Men to have their backs treated and the average series would apply the same 6-8 treatments every
8-12 weeks.

What can I do for those pesky hairs on my chin?

Laser Hair Reduction can control the hair, though the hairs on the chin are always hormonal- which will be an on-going treatment to stunt the hair growth. On average a series of 4-5 treatments every
4-6weeks.  

Here is one client's experience;
After just two treatments I noticed a reduction in the amount of hair. I feel much more confident, no shaving especially in the winter as my skin gets dry. I Love the way my legs feel so smooth and soft and the way they look! We just returned from holidays and I had no need to pack a shaver or feel like I had to stop and think before hopping in the pool. I would do it all over once again!  Angele B.

Laser Hair Removal facts and myths

Monday, March 21, 2011

There are so many myths out there associated with laser hair removal that it can be hard to know the truth from the fiction. Suffice to say, laser hair removal works and it works well. It is expensive, but it is efficient and it will keep you from having to shave for years. This is why it has become so popular.

7 most common myths: 

There are a lot of myths out there about laser hair removal because it is a new technology that many people do not always trust. However, these myths are just that, myths, and you should not be worried about laser hair removal. It is safe, efficient and nearly painless. Some of the myths you may have heard include:

1. Only people with light skin and dark hair can get laser hair removal: While it works best with people who have light skin and dark, course hair, they are not the only ones who can get the treatment done. New lasers have been made that can be used on people who have dark skin and dark hair.

2. It causes scarring: This is not true at all because the laser does not breach the skin. There is no scarring at all, unlike what can happen with electric hair removal, which uses a needle touching the skin.

3. It is harmful to the health of the organs: This is completely untrue. The laser does not penetrate more than four millimeters into the skin and goes no farther than the hair follicles. The beam is not damaging the skin, it is simply moving along the skin. The worst that usually happens for most who get the treatment is redness that lasts only a few hours.

4. Laser hair removal causes increased hair growth: This is not the case at all.

5. It hurts a lot: How much it hurts depends on how much a person can take in terms of pain. Most consider it to be very mild in terms of pain and nowhere near the pain caused by waxing.

6. It is very expensive: Yes, there is a higher cost associated with laser hair removal. If it costs $200 a session and takes 6-8 sessions, then it will cost $1,600 but you have to look at how much you are spending on shavers, creams, foams and more over the course of 10 years.

7. It is 100 percent permanent: If any clinic promises you this, then they are not being realistic and truthful. Hair is prevented from growing with laser hair removal, but it is not eliminated completely. Hair can still grow in the future, new hairs will pop up, and this is why it is important to have annual sessions to touch up any areas that may have new hair growth.


If you don't like to stop your plans for anything, why let body hair stop you. Why not go for laser hair reduction? You deserve to enjoy the independence you deserve.
