Laser hair removal operates by delivering energy to the targeted area through light, selectively focusing on the pigment in the hair follicle without causing harm to the surrounding tissue. In this process, the absorbed light transforms into heat, effectively destroying the hair follicle. The outcome is enduring results, as damaged follicles from laser hair removal are unable to regrow.

Our machine employs a method of gradually heating the dermis to a temperature that damages the hair follicles, preventing re-growth without causing harm to the surrounding tissue. This is achieved through a high repetition rate of short pulses penetrating deep into the dermis, generating high average power and therapeutically effective heat build-up, all with minimal to virtually no pain.

Sessions vary based on the patient and type of hair that the patient has. Most results are seen between 4 to 12 sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is laser hair removal suitable for all skin types?

Laser hair removal is safe and effective for most skin types, including fair to dark skin tones. However, patients with very light or grey hair may not see optimal results due to the lack of pigment for the laser to target.

Is there any downtime or recovery period after laser hair removal?

One of the advantages of laser hair removal at Vita Pure IV is that there is minimal downtime or recovery required. You may experience mild redness in the treated area immediately following the procedure, but this effect typically subsides within a few hours.

Waxing: Price varies by area

Does your skin get irritated from shaving? Tired of the constant discomfort of nicks and cuts? Don’t have the time to be shaving every day? Have a special occasion or beach vacation coming up?

Waxing is the long-lasting hair removal alternative to shaving that can give you smooth, hair-free skin for up to six weeks (varies by patient). Additionally, some patients find that waxing caused the hair that grows back to be finer and grow slower.
