Dermatology Realm is proud to offer laser hair removal services from our modern Germantown office. We use a combination of broadband light (BBL) to provide tailored treatments for each patient. Hair removal often requires a series of laser treatments, usually spaced out every 4 to 6 weeks. Laser hair removal is a great option for those looking for a permanent solution to unwanted body hair, as it uses heat to damage the papilla at the bottom of the hair shaft, preventing it from producing hair.
It is important to note that laser hair removal is only effective on dark hair. Laser hair removal and IPL are both popular cosmetic treatments available at major beauty salons, medical spas, and clinics. Both use powerful light energy, although of very different types, to slow and reduce hair growth on the body and face. There are also scaled-down versions that can be used at home.
Generally, 6 to 8 sessions are needed to significantly reduce or permanently remove hair from the treated area. It is important to note that laser hair removal cannot cause cancer on the skin or any organ in the body. However, when combined with other treatments that don't rely on hair pigment, laser hair removal can also remove lighter shades of hair, such as blonde, gray, and red. There may be some redness or slight swelling during the first few hours after the laser hair removal treatment, but this usually goes away quickly.
At Dermatology Realm, we understand that the demand for durable hair removal is high. That's why we use the latest technology and techniques to provide our patients with the best results possible. We are proud to offer laser hair removal services from our modern Germantown office and are confident that you will be satisfied with your results.
