Laser Hair Removal Midtown Toronto

Laser & Broadband Light (BBL) hair reduction is a treatment used to reduce/eliminate unwanted hair. These are done in a series of treatments every 4-6 weeks for the face and every 6-8 weeks for the body. Shadow left after shaving and ingrown hairs will be eliminated and leave you with smooth skin without unwanted hairs.

HOW DOES LASER & BBL HAIR REMOVAL WORK?

The simple answer is that lasers emit a pulse of light, which is absorbed by the pigmentation, and blood vessels of the hair follicle. When that light is absorbed by the hair follicle, it is converted to heat, which then destroys the hair follicle. A series of treatments is required as hair growth has 3 stages; Anagen (active growth), Catagen (transition) & Telogen (resting). Hairs that are in the Anagen stage respond only to the laser/BBL. Each treatment removes hairs that are active, therefore on average 6-8 treatments are required, although significant hair reduction is seen throughout the whole process.
