No Fuzz, Just Buzz: 6 Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

Dallas Magazine- February

Stubble, razor burn, bumps, ingrown hairs … they’re as stubborn as toddlers who won’t eat. If you wake up early every day to battle these neverending foes with tweezers and razors, we have good news.

Laser hair removal may be the answer to your stubble troubles. It might sound like something from a sci-fi movie, but laser treatments are the safest, most effective way to banish unwanted hair for good. And the sooner you begin, the sooner you can start seeing results. But we get it — it’s a big decision and personal. Dallas’s laser hair removal experts and the country’s largest laser hair removal company, Milan Laser Hair Removal, share the benefits of laser hair removal compared to traditional, outdated methods and how to choose the best provider.

1. Permanent results = convenience!

Light from the laser targets and destroys the hair follicles so they can never grow again. Laser hair removal results are permanent, and 70% of clients see a change in growth after their first treatment. Hair is constantly in different growth cycles, so multiple treatments are needed to ensure they’re all zapped. The average client at Milan Laser Hair Removal needs seven to 10 treatments to be 95%+ hair-free.

New hair follicles can become active due to age, hormones, and genetics, causing new hair to grow. Choose a provider who offers unlimited treatments rather than paying by the session. Some places like Milan Laser Hair Removal will even guarantee your results for life, so there are no touch-up or membership fees that cost hundreds of dollars a year.

2. It saves you money in the long run.

Laser hair removal is an investment, and it’s surprisingly cost-effective! The average person who shaves their legs and underarms spends upwards of $10,000 over a lifetime on razors, shaving cream, and exfoliators. But no one has ever shaved and never had to again. The regrowth happens in just a day or two. With Brazilian waxing, for instance, the average person spends $27,000 over a lifetime on salon appointments. Again, this is for temporary results.

On the flip side, since the results of each treatment are permanent, you can view the cost of laser hair removal as an investment rather than an expense. Many providers have different payment options to help make laser hair removal affordable for everyone. Milan Laser Hair Removal offers affordable laser hair removal payment plans to fit anyone’s monthly budget.

3. It’s safe for all skin tones.

Laser hair removal is safe and effective for all skin tones with the proper technology. Milan Laser Hair Removal uses the Candela GentleMax Pro, which contains two separate lasers: Nd:YAG and Alexandrite. The Alexandrite is used for lighter skin tones, while the Nd:YAG is best for brown to black skin tones. It’s worth noting that not all providers offering this technology have safety protocols and proper training, so do your research!

But it’s more than just having the right technology. For the safest treatments possible, select a provider with experience treating all skin tones and can tailor treatments to your skin tone and hair color. Providers at Milan Laser have extensive experience with Alexandrite and Nd:YAG laser technology, and they safely and effectively treat all skin tones and make hair-free skin a reality for everyone.

4. Bonus skincare benefits!

Aside from impossibly smooth, hair-free skin, the skincare benefits of laser hair removal are myriad. If you deal with “strawberry legs,” the dark spots on the legs filled with oil, dead skin, and bacteria from shaving, laser hair removal can help by removing the dark pigmented hair and reducing the look of strawberry legs.

Everyone who shaves knows a thing or two about nicks, cuts, ingrown hairs, and razor burn. But with laser hair removal, you won’t have to worry about those things again! Laser hair

removal can also treat razor bumps or inflammation on the skin and help avoid ingrown hairs and clogged pores from a dull or dirty razor.

5. Is laser hair removal less painful than waxing?

Anyone who’s waxed their legs or bikini area knows about the ouch factor (ahem, Brazilian “ring of fire,” anyone?). Hair is ripped from the skin, and in delicate areas, this can cause bruising, bleeding, and clogged pores. Once again, this is all for temporary results.

Clients say laser hair removal is a little “spicy” and stings like a rubber band snap, but only for a millisecond. The Candela GentleMax Pro used at Milan Laser works alongside air-cooling technology to help reduce potential discomfort so clients have the most comfortable experience possible.

6. It’s quick!

Who has time for shaving and plucking every morning or spending hours on one area with an IPL device? Laser hair removal treatments are so fast they can be done over lunch. You can get multiple areas treated in 30 minutes or less. No more carving out time every month for waxing appointments or wasting time on fleeting results.
