4 ways that today’s lasers are transforming how we remove unwanted hair permanently

In the past, if you had unwanted hair on your face or body, options for its removal were limited. They include the “usual suspects” – razors, waxes, and so on – and electrolysis as a professional services option. These hair removal methods have long come with many drawbacks, but lasers at Kore MD Health and Wellness in Atlanta, Georgia, effectively resolve these issues. Dr. Nicole Battaglioli, our board-certified physician, is happy to talk about how laser-assisted hair reduction and removal revolutionize how we remove extra or undesired hair.

All genders and skin types can enjoy the benefits of laser hair removal. We can treat hair on any part of the body.

No. 1: Less time in the bathroom, more time enjoying life!

Traditional methods such as shaving, tweezing, and waxing are not only tedious. But they also do not make efficient use of your time.

You may notice hairs beginning to grow back almost immediately after removal. With laser hair removal, however, results can last a lifetime with only minimal annual maintenance sessions.

No. 2: A high-reward, low-risk treatment

Waxing and shaving are rarely associated with hassle-free, comfortable, pleasant, or relaxing experiences. Once you finally remove all of the hair, not only does it grow back fast, but you have to contend with the razor burn, irritation, and potential for long-lasting damage. When in our team’s highly capable hands, you can enjoy smooth and hair-free skin without the bumps and irritation for a long time. Since hair grows in cycles, reaching your full results may take six to eight treatments every four to eight weeks. But, after that, no more regular treatments and no more hassle!

No. 3: More patients can benefit from permanent hair removal

Due to advancements in laser technology, we can safely and predictably treat many different skin types and tones. Earlier-generation lasers previously carried a risk of hypopigmentation, causing patches of skin at the treatment site to appear lighter than the surrounding tissue or natural skin tone. In addition, these patients may have been at risk of developing scarring and other lasting forms of damage. Today, with sophisticated settings and other built-in features, laser systems in capable hands can support the sustained results you desire. So, permanent laser hair removal is not just for individuals with light skin and dark hair anymore!

No. 4: A faster and better-tolerated alternative to electrolysis

Electrolysis is a treatment that has long-supported permanent hair reduction and removal. However, it involves removing hair with an electric current that damages the follicles from which the strands grow. It can be a painful and painstaking process involving treating one follicle at a time. With laser hair removal, we can get sustained results without electrical currents, associated pain, and lengthy, numerous, and costly treatment sessions. Our lasers can remove more hairs efficiently, targeting multiple follicles simultaneously. Also, most of our patients describe the sensation of the laser treating the follicles as the snapping of a rubber band against the skin or a temporary/fleeting sensation of warmth. We at Kore MD Health and Wellness can also help you manage the comparatively modest effects of treatment at every step in the process.
