Become Silky Smooth

If you are tired of the constant need to shave, pluck, or wax unwanted body hair, laser hair reduction is the answer you have been looking for. Laser hair reduction offers a way to permanently reduce unwanted hair from almost all areas of your body. At The Spiegel Center, we offer laser hair reduction for those looking for a quick, and permanent way to reduce their unwanted hair.

The Benefits of Laser Hair Reduction

Laser hair reduction is the perfect alternative to shaving, bleaching, and waxing. This procedure uses a carefully selected and intense beam of light to remove unwanted hair from different parts of the body, including the face, arms, legs, back, underarms, and bikini area. The treatment provides permanent reduction of hair where you don’t want it. The best part? It requires very little maintenance! After going through the initial treatments, only one to two maintenance treatments per year are required for Laser Hair Reduction.

Who Should Consider Laser Hair Reduction?

The color of your hair and your skin type will have an effect on the overall success of laser hair reduction, and the number of treatments needed. The laser itself targets pigment in your hair called melanin, so if you have light skin and dark hair, the treatment is more effective.

Laser hair reduction isn’t as effective for people who have white, gray, light red, or blond hair because there is less melanin, which means the laser can’t “see” the hair as well. However, we have options for those patients as well. If your skin is darker, or your hair is lighter, we can adjust the laser settings to maximize your results. We also offer electrolysis in Newton, Massachusetts, which works on all hair colors and skin types.

Potential Risks

Keep in mind that there is no guarantee of permanent laser hair removal, even for those who have dark hair on light skin. Some hair may grow back in treated areas, but if it does, it is usually finer and lighter in color. Some people may experience skin irritation after treatment, but this should go away during the first few hours following the procedure. It may also lighten or darken affected skin areas; though this is uncommon, temporary, and is more prevalent in people who have darker skin.

Before And After The Procedure

Before your laser hair reduction treatment, don’t tan or go out into the sun. Wait until any tan you already have disappears completely. Right before your treatment, don’t pluck, wax, or undergo electrolysis since these can interfere with hair follicles and the laser’s ability to reduce hair growth.

Following treatment, feel free to apply ice to any treated areas to reduce irritation and swelling. You should also avoid exposure to the sun and UV lights. Laser hair reduction is a safe and effective way to banish unwanted hair all over the body and reduce the need to shave, wax, or pluck.

I can’t say enough about the staff at Dr. Spiegel’s office. Taylor has been by my side since I booked my first consultation and proven to be a diligent and attentive patient care coordinator. Kayla has completely changed my skin. I have never felt so confident. I went from just trying facials (which are by far the most healing and soothing I have ever had) to laser hair removal and microneedling treatments. I’ve been very impressed with my results and can’t wait to go back!
