Permanent Results
Hair grows in stages. The laser hair removal process is most effective at the stage of the growth cycle when hair is still in its follicle. The Venus Versa hair removal treatment delivers heat from Intense Pulsed Light into the deeper layers of the skin to target pigment and destroy the hair follicle. Not only does this eliminate existing hair, but it also inhibits further hair growth in the treatment area. SmartPulse technology ensures safe and consistent heat distribution, while an advanced cooling system protects the surrounding skin.
Patients typically see ideal results with 4-6 treatments per area. The exact number of sessions necessary will depend on each person’s skin type, hair color, texture, and treatment area. On average, each laser treatment that you undergo will permanently eliminate roughly 40-80% of the hair follicles. In the weeks between treatment sessions, patients begin to notice a reduction of hair. Once treated, hair cannot regrow from the treated follicle again.
Post-Treatment Care Requirements
There is no downtime required after treatment sessions. Patients can return to regular activities immediately after a session and can also apply makeup after their appointment. Post-treatment aftercare instructions include avoiding hot baths or showers for a few days, abrasive scrubs and exfoliants for one week, and refraining from shaving, tweezing, or waxing between treatment sessions.
