Laser hair removal is one of the most common cosmetic treatments in the United States. It is a convenient option for the long-term reduction and removal of hair follicles on the body and face. This procedure frequently leaves the skin looking and feeling smoother and produces long-lasting results compared to other methods, such as shaving and waxing.
Our licensed and experienced aestheticians at A Woman Plastic Surgeon in Metairie, LA perform safe and fast laser hair removal treatments for women and men using the state-of-the-art InMode Diolaze laser system. The Diolaze system is one of the fastest and most effective laser hair removal techniques that safely and gently removes unwanted hair. It can cover a large treatment area or smaller ones, including the face, back, legs, chest, armpits, and intimate areas.
Reducing hair follicle growth with a laser is a gentle process that is suitable for most patients. In your consultation, you will talk about your needs, concerns, and goals to help determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure. Ideal patients for laser hair removal:
Laser hair removal is known to be a great solution for hair removal. While some men and women can enjoy the benefits of the treatment for years, it is considered semi-permanent in some cases. There could potentially be some hair growth that occurs in areas where the laser technology did not hit. Regardless, New Orleans laser hair removal patients find that the majority of the hair will be gone after their treatment plan has concluded and even if some hairs pop up, it is very easy to manage. Most patients find they receive a smooth result. Additional laser hair removal treatments can also be scheduled to take care of any stragglers or new growth as needed.
Hair growth occurs in varying cycles. While some hair may be in a live growing phase, others may be dormant. Since each follicle grows in various stages, multiple treatment sessions are typically needed to target each hair and follicle at its growing phase. Between laser hair removal sessions, the hairs that do grow can be shaved because the follicle is not affected. Laser hair treatment removes the hair from the follicle, but the laser must be able to see the hair to remove it. If a follicle is dormant, it is harder for the laser to read. Spreading out your sessions over various weeks helps remove each follicle for the smoothest, most effective result.
Laser hair removal may cause some minor discomfort, but it is not considered a painful procedure. Most patients will feel a slight sting when the laser targets and removes the hair follicle. We can apply a numbing ointment to the surface of the skin prior to the start of the treatment session. For New Orleans laser hair removal patients who are used to getting waxed, they report that it causes much less discomfort than a normal waxing session.
There are many great lasers on the market today. A Woman Plastic Surgeon is proud to offer the latest hair removal technology for patients of all skin color and varying hair types. The lasers we utilize offer excellent results, and we continue to upgrade our technologies as newer lasers enter the marketplace and become available. We encourage you to ask us about our technology during your laser hair removal consultation.
Laser hair removal is a procedure that varies in cost, depending on the areas being treated on the body, as well as how many sessions are needed to attain a smooth, hairless result. When we discuss pricing with our patients, we often bring up the costs associated with waxing and how this can add up over time, especially if you get waxed on a regular basis year after year. Laser hair removal is more costly than waxing or other hair removal methods, but it is generally the most effective and long-lasting. We will create a custom plan for you that includes the total number of sessions recommended and package pricing options to consider.
At your laser hair removal appointment, you can relax in our Red Spa as the needed areas of your skin are cleaned to remove dirt, oil, and moisturizers. During laser hair removal New Orleans aestheticians will stretch out the skin to provide a direct path between the root of the hair follicle and the laser.
The laser's energy will target and disable the hair follicle, which stops it from growing back. Usually, you will need 5 – 6 sessions over a period of 5 – 6 months to see your ideal results. Your appointments will be spaced out in order to allow the treated areas time to recover. This also allows time for hair follicles that were in the dormant phase of growth to reach the active growth phase so they can be treated. The state-of-the-art technology we use at A Woman Plastic Surgeon is able to target the hair follicle alone to preserve the skin in the area being treated.

We strive to give you the best laser hair removal New Orleans has to offer.

While the treatment is relatively gentle in nature, your skin may feel like it has a light sunburn since lasers are used. After your session, you will be free to resume your daily activities, but you should refrain from lengthy exposure to the sun for a period of 2 weeks to let the treated areas heal. When you get home after your appointment, we recommend anti-inflammatory creams or cold packs to treat any discomfort.
