Laser Hair Removal is for Everyone

BROUGHT TO YOU BY

Unwanted hair doesn't care about skin tone, age, or gender. It grows and grows, but that doesn't mean you’re stuck with it forever.

You may have tried, in vain, to maintain smooth, hair-free skin through outdated hair removal methods and feel doomed to go through an endless cycle of shaving and waxing for the rest of our hair-growing lives. There's got to be a better way to get rid of unwanted hair for good, right?

You’ve likely heard of laser hair removal, but there's a lot of misinformation out there about it. That's where the experts at the nation's No. 1 laser hair removal provider and Austin's laser hair removal experts, Milan Laser Hair Removal, come in. They’re busting myths and helping you decide if ditching the razor for the laser is right for you!

Fact: When laser hair removal became FDA-cleared in the ’90s, it was only safe for fair skin and dark hair combinations. Today different lasers and advanced technology have made laser hair removal safe for all skin tones, when performed correctly. The Candela GentleMax Pro laser used at Milan Laser gives clients the safest laser hair removal treatments. It includes two technologies: the Nd: YAG laser for darker skin tones and the Alexandrite laser for lighter skin tones. This allows providers like Milan Laser to create customized treatment plans for clients’ skin tones and hair colors.

Fact: Each laser hair removal treatment gives permanent results whenperformed correctly.

During each treatment, a laser pulse is delivered directly to the hair follicle. The follicle is heated and destroyed and can never grow again. But our bodies are unpredictable, and new hair follicles can become active. Hormone changes, age, genetics, and more can cause new hair to grow, so touch-ups are sometimes needed.

Be wary of medspas offering laser hair removal packages with only six to nine sessions, even if they’re cheaper. The average Milan Laser client needs about seven to 10 treatments to be 95%+ hair-free. You’ll likely need to pay for touch-ups down the road or purchase additional packages to see desired results, so take advantage of companies offering unlimited laser hair removal packages.

Fact: A lifetime of waxing and shaving is a bottomless-pit expense. They only give temporary results that will cost thousands of dollars over a lifetime to maintain. The average person who shaves their legs and underarms will spend over $10,000 over a lifetime on razors, shaving cream, exfoliants, and more. If you get your legs and bikini area waxed, you’ll spend over $49,000 on salon appointments over a lifetime.

On the flip side: laser hair removal is actually cost-effective; it's an investment rather than an expense. When comparing the cost of laser hair removal, you see time and money saved. And to make hair-free skin and confidence even more attainable for all, Milan Laser offers specials and affordable laser hair removal payment plans to fit anyone's budget.

Fact: Laser hair removal is significantly less painful than waxing. Many clients say it stings like a rubber band snap, but only for a millisecond, the time it takes for the laser to zap the targeted hair. The Candela GentleMax Pro used at Milan Laser has built-in comfort features, including a cooling cryogen mist released immediately after each laser pulse to reduce any potential discomfort. Outdated and less sophisticated laser hair removal providers have numbing creams or messy gels.

Fact: The process of shaving is easy, quick, and done from home. But the second you shave, the hair is already growing back. Waxing is done quickly in a salon, and it's easy to book appointments, but you’re still only seeing results for a few weeks. Laser hair removal treatments are quick and safe, and your results are permanent. You can get treatments in the evenings, on weekends, or even over your lunch break with no downtime—you’re in and out, and you can go on with your day!
