“True beauty is being unapologetically you”
Laser hair removal is a cosmetic treatment that relies on advanced laser technology to target the pigment within hair follicles. During the process, the laser emits a focused beam of light that is absorbed by the melanin in the hair, generating heat that disrupts the follicle’s ability to produce new growth. This method allows for precise targeting of unwanted hair while leaving the surrounding skin undisturbed. Over time, repeated treatments can significantly reduce the amount and thickness of hair in the treated area, offering a more lasting approach compared to temporary hair removal methods.
Laser hair removal can be performed on a wide range of body and facial areas, from larger regions like the legs and back to smaller areas such as the upper lip or underarms. The duration of the procedure varies depending on the size of the area, but the approach remains consistent in targeting unwanted hair.
Once the session is complete, a cooling device or soothing gel may be applied to the treated skin to help calm it. Patients are provided with aftercare guidelines to protect the area and prepare for subsequent sessions, as multiple treatments are typically required for the long-term reduction of hair growth.
The number of sessions varies because hair grows in cycles, and the laser is most effective when targeting follicles in their new growth stage. Factors such as hair type, skin tone, and the area being treated all play a role in determining the number of visits that may be necessary. While noticeable reduction can be seen after just a few sessions, 6-8 treatments are usually recommended to achieve full results and ensure that all follicles are effectively addressed.
One of the most significant advantages of laser hair removal is its ability to deliver a long-lasting reduction in unwanted hair. By targeting the follicle directly, the treatment disrupts future hair growth, allowing for a significant reduction or even elimination of the need for constant shaving, waxing, or plucking.
Safety and effectiveness are key components of this treatment, as it is cleared by the FDA for permanent hair reduction. At TREAT Medspa, our laser technology is designed to precisely target hair follicles while maintaining comfort and minimizing risk to the surrounding skin.
The cost of laser hair removal in NYC ranges from $150 to $500 per session, depending on the size of the area being treated and the number of sessions required. Smaller zones, such as the upper lip or underarms, typically fall at the lower end of the scale, while larger regions, like the legs, back, or chest, tend to fall toward the higher end. Factors such as hair type, density, and the customized treatment plan also influence overall pricing.
