Excess hair can rob you of your confidence and be a big annoyance, especially when it grows back seemingly as fast as you shave, wax, or tweeze it off! Fortunately, at Kore MD Health and Wellness, our team, led by a Board-certified physician, Dr. Nicole Battaglioli, provides services to eliminate that excess once and for all.


The “secret” to removing unwanted hair

Our Atlanta, Georgia, office uses an advanced diode laser system for hair removal. This treatment generates and delivers ultra-short pulses of energy to targeted hair follicles. This energy then works optimally and efficiently to damage the treated follicles and inhibit future regrowth while leaving the surrounding tissues outside the treatment area intact.


What to expect

Advanced lasers are appropriate and safe for many skin types and treat many other body areas, from the face to the back, legs, bikini area, underarms and arms, and chest. We will review the process with you following a consultation. It is important to understand that hair grows in cycles. So, to get desirable and long-lasting results, treatment sessions must be scheduled. This is not a one-and-done procedure. Treatments are generally spaced four to eight weeks apart. Due to many built-in features, our diode laser system supports comfort and safety through partly cooling properties. Any sensations that may be felt during the process are temporary and occur as the laser is passed over the skin.


A true partnership

Health and wellness is a journey. Our team works closely with patients to ensure their pleasant experience and minimize any undesirable side effects and complications. After each treatment session, we will advise on ways to protect and heal your skin. As with many cosmetic services, exercising proper sun protection following your procedure is important. Your skin will be more sensitive to the effects of UV exposure. It’s also important to avoid using harsh or irritating perfumes, soaps, deodorants, and hot baths or showers. And, while you may wish to shave hair between sessions, do not thread, wax, or tweeze during the treatment process.

Hair-free and carefree

Of course, what you do before treatment can also make a big difference in your experience and results from laser-assisted hair removal. We can advise on tips to reduce the risk of scarring, photosensitivity, pigment problems, and other complications in the days and weeks preceding treatment. Shaving the treatment area well with a clean and new blade can also help ensure the laser can effectively “locate,” target, and treat each follicle.


You can achieve permanent hair reduction or removal by following instructions for pre-treatment and aftercare. To schedule your consultation at Kore MD Health and Wellness, call our Atlanta, Georgia, team at (404) 623-2143.
