Laser Hair Removal
What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal using the SHR Speed AFT treatment is a nearly discomfort-free method for removing unwanted hair. The duration of the treatment can vary from a few minutes to an hour, depending on the treatment areas, skin type, and hair type. Clinical research indicates that a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 1-3 months apart is necessary to achieve permanent hair reduction. Each patient is unique, so we recommend visiting us for a personalized assessment at Rejuvenation Wellness Center in Plainview, NY.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
During the appointment, you will lie in a treatment room as the areas to be treated are cleansed. A team member will stretch the skin to create a clear path for the laser to target the hair follicle root. The energy from the laser disables the hair follicle, preventing future hair growth. Multiple treatments over several months are typically required to achieve optimal results. This process allows for the treatment of hair follicles in different growth phases while preserving the surrounding skin.
What Should I Expect After Laser Hair Removal?
Post-treatment, your skin might appear mildly sunburned. You can resume daily activities immediately but should avoid exercise and extended sun exposure for 24 hours to allow the treated areas to heal. Using anti-inflammatory creams or ice packs can help minimize any mild discomfort at home.
