Laser Hair Removal

Ditch Your Razors for Lasers and Get Silky Smooth Skin for Summer!

Summer is right around the corner,

which means it is time to start digging out the bikinis from the back of the dresser drawer and getting summer ready! The days of staying indoors bundled up in front of the TV will soon hopefully be replaced with hours of being outdoors enjoying your favorite activities and wearing more skin baring clothing.

 
 

The question is, is your skin ready for the change of seasons? Sure, you’ve been staying up to date on your regular facials, skin treatments, and other body treatments at S. Thetics Medspa & Wellbeing, using all of your daily and nightly professional skincare products and applying your daily SPF every morning, but what about the rest of your body?

 

that may have been overlooked with all your time spent indoors during the colder winter months! 

 

One of the most popular treatments offered at S. Thetics Medspa and Wellbeing in Lawrence, Kansas as summer approaches is Laser Hair Removal.

Although body hair is completely natural, many people choose to remove it for different reasons. For most, hair removal is done for aesthetic reasons and personal preference, but it can also help with irritation and reducing ingrown hairs. As with any treatment, there are many questions that come along with Laser Hair Removal. Is it right for you?

Are you a good candidate for the procedure? Here at S. Thetics, we are here to get you in the know about all things laser hair removal-related. 


 
 

The question is valid, of course, but there is no one simple answer to why so many people choose Laser Hair Removal because there are many benefits, starting with long-lasting hair reduction and removal achieved from the procedure compared to traditional shaving or waxing. Laser Hair Removal does not remove hair in the same way that waxing or traditional shaving does, making the results longer lasting, rather than just a temporary solution. Shaving with a razor simply trims the hairs that have only grown past the surface of the skin.

It is a great short-term solution for unwanted hair, but the hair tends to grow back very quickly, requiring shaving multiple times per week to maintain smooth skin. Waxing, on the other hand, removes hair from the root, rather than just trimming the hair at the surface. This method does help with keeping unwanted hair away for longer than traditional shaving, but it is not the best alternative for many reasons, including cost, discomfort, and the most common side effect of unwanted and sometimes painful ingrown hairs that waxing leaves behind.

On average, the hair will start to grow back within a couple of weeks. Laser hair removal is favored over these methods because it is a much longer-lasting solution to unwanted hair. Laser Hair Removal targets the hair follicle, inhibiting future hair growth, so the hair does not come back once the initial series of treatments have been completed. Subsequent single maintenance treatments are later recommended to keep the hair from returning.


Another common question that comes along with laser hair removal is how safe is it?

At S. Thetics, we take our patients’ safety very seriously, and would never offer a procedure that is not safe and effective. Laser Hair Removal is an FDA-approved process that safely and effectively reduces or eliminates unwanted hair on almost any part of the body. The hair removal process is quick and simple and uses a laser to target the follicle of the hair. The laser deposits heat & light to the base of the follicle, which damages the growth center of the hair. Once the follicle is damaged, it will no longer grow hair, resulting in smooth, silky skin! 


With summer quickly approaching, you’re probably wondering

 
 

Laser Hair Removal treatments are relatively quick, depending on the area being treated, and you will start seeing results after just one treatment and keep seeing a reduction of hair after each treatment of your initial series. For optimal results, we recommend 4-8 treatment sessions, which will be determined by your Laser Hair Removal specialist depending on your hair and skin type and the area being treated. There is no downtime with laser hair removal, and you can shave any unwanted hair that can grow between treatments. Once your treatments are complete, you can ditch the razors and enjoy your smooth, hairless skin! 


Another great thing about Laser Hair Removal is that it can be performed on anyone and everyone! It is a great way to remove unwanted hair on both men and women on just about any area of the body, aside from the sensitive area of skin around the eyes.

Some of the most common areas that we treat at S. Thetics Medspa and Wellbeing are legs, arms, underarms, bikini area, Brazilian, face, back, and chest. However, other areas can be treated as well. If you deal with unwanted hair on another area of your body, you can consult with one of our team members to see if you are a candidate for laser hair removal.
