Laser hair removal is a treatment that uses laser energy to disrupt hair growth in the follicles. It works by administering very fast pulses of light energy that are absorbed through the pigment in the hair shaft. There, it travels to the follicles and generates heat, damaging the hair growth mechanisms in the skin. Over time, this slows and eventually stops hair growth.
Today I had my first ever laser hair removal procedure on my upper back/neck area. I visited the Look Med Spa, from checking in to receiving the treatment everything was seamless. Staff was very friendly, professional, and attentive.

Laser hair removal works best on people who have lighter skin and darker hair. This is because of the way the light energy targets pigment. However, there are a variety of different technologies available, and our laser experts can help you determine the best approach for your goals.
Laser hair removal can take as little as 10 minutes or as long as an hour, depending on the size of your treatment area. To begin, you’ll discuss your goals with our laser technicians and get an honest, professional opinion about how many sessions you can expect. Once you’re ready, a topical numbing cream will be applied and left to activate. Then, the skin will be cleansed, and any dirt, oil, or makeup will be removed. You’ll be given protective eye shields and the handpiece will be applied to your treatment area. Once the whole area is treated, your skin will be soothed and made ready for the rest of your day.
