Laser Hair Removal Q & A

How does laser hair removal work?

During laser hair removal, the laser light energy penetrates through the skin and is directed towards the hair follicle and hair shaft, where it is absorbed by melanin, the pigment color in skin and hair. This results in damage to the hair follicle and impairs its ability to regrow hair. For best results, laser hair removal treatment is recommended for hair follicles that are the active growth phase, because they have more pigment that will in turn absorb the light energy.

Which laser hair removal machine does your office use?

At Yi Wellness, we use the Vectus Laser Hair Removal machine, produced by CynoSure, which is suitable for all skin types. This machine uses the Skintel Melanin Reader technology to effective treat individuals of light and dark skin tones alike. Vectus Laser is safe to treat hair follicles on any part of the body.

Is laser hair removal painful?

Vectus Laser Hair Removal is generally painless and well-tolerated by clients. The sapphire tips equipped on the Vectus laser specifically direct heat and light to the hair follicles, preventing overtreatment and leaving the skin pain-free.

At Yi Wellness, we typically do not use any topical numbing cream for this treatment.

How many laser hair removal sessions are recommended for best results?

Clients are typically recommended 6 – 8 sessions that are spaced 4 – 6 weeks apart to achieve significant hair reduction. Dr. Guan will work with you during your consultation to determine an individualized laser hair removal plan that best suits your desired results.
