LASER HAIR REMOVAL
Laser Hair Removal uses focused light energy to target and reduce unwanted hair growth. It's a long-lasting solution that provides smoother skin by disabling hair follicles, making it a convenient alternative to shaving, waxing, or plucking. Suitable for various areas of the body, laser hair removal offers a more permanent and low-maintenance option for achieving hair-free skin.
HOW DOES LASER HAIR REMOVAL WORK?
Laser hair removal works by using concentrated light beams that penetrate the skin and target the pigment (melanin) in hair follicles. The heat from the laser damages these follicles, inhibiting future hair growth. As hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are usually required to catch all the hairs in their active growth phase. Over time, the treated hair becomes finer and grows more slowly, leading to long-term hair reduction or even permanent removal in some areas. A series of 6 to 8 treatments is highly recommended for best results.

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE?
While Laser Hair Removal can be performed on virtually any skin color and hair type, hair color is the most important factor. The light emitted from the laser is attracted to the melanin, or dark pigment, in the hair follicle. This means that dark hair is treated most effectively. Treatments performed on red, blonde, and gray hair are not generally as effective, however, Riposo Medical Spa offers the most up-to-date laser treatments that can treat a variety of skin types and complexions, so anyone can see great results!
HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE NEEDED?
Several factors determine how many laser hair removal treatments you’ll need—from your hair type and thickness, to the size of your treatment area. Your skin tone may influence your total number of treatments, but one complexion doesn’t require more or less treatment than another. Rather, your number of treatments will rely on how effectively your individual skin type reacts to laser technology.
