Tired of the irritation, ingrown hairs, and discoloration that follows suit with shaving? We are too. Waxing is tough on the skin, too—it’s painful, expensive, and not ideal for sensitive skin types. And to top it off, both shaving and waxing require at least one to two weeks of hair growth to restart the process, meaning you’re caught in a vicious cycle of regrowth and coarse hair. That’s where laser hair removal comes in.

What is it?

Laser hair removal happens when you focus very concentrated light on the hair follicle. The pigment in the hair follicle will heat up from the light and the heat will eventually eradicate the follicle.

Forever Bare BBL™ Technology by Sciton®

Traditional laser hair removal devices apply all of their energy to any given area all at once. Our Sciton Forever Bare BBL laser treatment sends multiple lower fluence pulses at a high repetition rate, allowing for the most comfortable and safe treatment. The revolutionary Forever Bare BBL technology allows for even heating of hair follicles and minimizes missed areas that occur with traditional hair removal devices, for the fastest and most even treatment.

In addition to the advanced Forever Bare BBL technology, the thermoelectrically cooled sapphire plate on the device provides constant cooling, even at its highest setting, to keep the skin comfortable throughout the entirety of the treatment. The device contains spot size adapters that make it possible to treat larger areas quickly and smaller areas more precisely, for a treatment that is both gentle and effective.

How many sessions?

The coarser and darker your hair is, the better it works. The light targets the darkness (the hair) and ignores the skin. Most patients will receive desired results in approximately 5-8 treatments.

The result? Silky, smooth skin. If you’re interested in learning more about our laser hair removal services, call us at 512.379.6090 to schedule a consultation, or book an appointment online.
