What is unwanted hair?

Unwanted hair refers to excessive or undesirable hair growth in areas where you may prefer smooth skin. Common areas include the face, legs, underarms, back, chest, and bikini line. Factors like genetics, hormones, and certain medical conditions can contribute to unwanted hair, and for many, it can be a source of discomfort or insecurity. While shaving, waxing, and plucking can help manage unwanted hair, these measures are often inefficient and sometimes even painful. We offer personalized solutions to help you achieve and maintain smooth skin.

Laser hair reduction

Laser hair reduction uses concentrated beams of light (laser) to target and reduce unwanted hair. The laser emits light absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair follicles. This energy is converted to heat, which damages the hair follicle at its root, inhibiting future hair growth without harming the surrounding skin. Multiple sessions are required because hair grows in cycles, and the laser is most effective during the active growth phase.

Laser hair reduction relies on selective photothermolysis, where specific wavelengths of light are used to achieve thermal damage to the follicle while minimizing the effect on surrounding tissues. The damaged follicles gradually lose the ability to regrow hair, making this an effective long-term solution for reducing hair density. This treatment is commonly used on the face, legs, arms, and bikini line.

Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation technique that uses a sterile surgical scalpel to gently scrape off the outermost layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, commonly known as “peach fuzz.” This process not only smooths the skin but also enhances the absorption of skincare products and provides a brighter, more even complexion. It is a popular treatment for those seeking a refreshed appearance without chemicals or harsh abrasives.

Dermaplaning does not affect the deeper layers of the skin or the hair follicle. The fine hair removed during the procedure is superficial and does not grow back thicker or darker, as it only targets the surface. By removing the outer layer of skin, dermaplaning also promotes cellular turnover and provides immediate, visible smoothness, making it an effective method for temporarily eliminating unwanted hair or “peach fuzz” on the face.

BBL Forever Bare

BBL Forever Bare is an advanced hair removal technology that uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to safely and effectively reduce unwanted hair. Unlike traditional laser hair removal, BBL Forever Bare delivers lower, repetitive pulses of light to the skin, allowing for a more even heating of hair follicles. This disrupts the hair’s growth cycle, eventually leading to a significant reduction in hair density. The treatment is gentle and suitable for larger areas like the legs, arms, and back.

BBL Forever Bare works through selective photothermolysis, where the light energy is absorbed by the melanin in the hair follicle without affecting the surrounding skin. The light energy is converted into heat, damaging the follicle and inhibiting future hair growth. The technology’s ability to deliver consistent, rapid pulses ensures effective treatment while minimizing discomfort, making it a highly efficient option for long-term hair reduction.
