What Is Laser Hair Removal/Reduction?

The procedure itself is relatively simple and quick. A small hand-held device is used to direct the laser beam at the treatment area. You may feel a slight tingling or stinging sensation as the hair follicles are destroyed. Afterward, the treated area may be slightly red or swollen. This is normal and will subside within a few hours. You may also notice some shedding of the treated hair in the days following your session.

How do lasers for hair removal work?

The laser emits a gentle beam of light that goes through the surface of the skin and precisely heats the pigmented portion of the hair. This specific damage harms the portion of the hair that contributes to hair production thus disabling the hair follicle and leaving the skin unharmed.

Am I a good candidate for laser hair removal?

If you are concerned about unwanted hair, you are probably a good candidate for laser hair removal in the Buffalo & Williamsville area at CVLC. Nearly everyone is a candidate for this type of treatment. However, the most dramatic results are seen in people with dark, coarse hair.

The cost of the treatment ranges from $250-$1,500 depending on the extent of the area treated.
