Boosting Your Confidence

Unwanted hair removal can be time-consuming and painful, while stubble can be bothersome and embarrassing. Concierge Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery offers advanced laser hair removal in Barrington to address these concerns.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?

This non-invasive procedure uses laser technology to target unwanted hair. The high-energy light emitted by the laser device penetrates the skin and focuses on the hair follicles during their growth stage, effectively destroying or disabling them and preventing further hair growth. Multiple treatments are necessary to address each follicle during its growth stage.

Is Laser Hair Removal Right for Me?

Laser hair removal is an excellent option for long-term hair removal from almost any body part. It's important to consider that laser hair removal may not suit everyone, especially those with specific skin or hair types. Traditionally, individuals with darker, coarser hair and lighter skin have been the best candidates, but advancements in laser technology have expanded the potential benefits to include some patients with darker skin or lighter hair.

In a consultation, our team will assess your skin and hair to determine if laser hair removal is the most suitable treatment for your needs.

Your Initial Consultation

If you are considering getting laser hair removal in Barrington, we recommend visiting any of our five facilities for an initial face-to-face meeting. Additionally, we provide virtual consultations for your convenience. During the consultation for laser hair removal, our team will assess your skin and hair in the specific treatment areas and discuss your objectives for the procedure. We will give you details about the process, including the anticipated recovery process, and advise you on aftercare. Our team might also conduct a patch test on a small skin area to ascertain the most suitable laser settings for your skin and hair type.

The Day of Your Laser Hair Removal Treatment

Prepare the treatment area by shaving it the day before laser hair removal, but refrain from plucking or waxing it. The procedure lasts 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size and location of the treatment area.

Our team will use a laser device to focus on the hair follicles during the procedure. The laser emits high-energy light to target the hair follicles, effectively eliminating them and inhibiting further hair growth.

The process is generally well-tolerated and relatively painless, with most patients reporting only mild discomfort. Many patients liken the sensation to that of a rubber band being snapped against the skin.

Recovery and Results After Laser Hair Removal

The recovery period following laser hair removal treatments is minimal, allowing most patients to resume their regular activities immediately afterward. It is normal to experience some redness and swelling in the treatment area, which typically diminishes within a few hours to a day. Patients may also feel mild discomfort, such as heat or tightness in the treatment area, which can be easily managed with over-the-counter pain medication. For optimal results, avoiding exposing the treated areas to the sun, hot baths, and showers is essential during the initial days following the procedure.

Additionally, refrain from plucking or waxing the area for several weeks after your treatment. After the treatment, a significant reduction in hair growth in the treated area can be expected. Patients often observe a visible decrease in hair growth within the first few weeks after the procedure. While the exact outcomes may vary based on the individual patient's skin type, hair color, and the extent of the treatment, most individuals report a substantial reduction in hair growth, resulting in smooth and hair-free skin.
