Laser Hair Removal

If you’re looking for a reliable and effective long-term hair-removal treatment, try laser hair removal in Acton at Skin Tight Med Spa.

Most people have undesired body hair and get rid of this hair in various ways. However, these hair-removal techniques are often time-consuming, frustrating, and painful, and they only offer short-term results.

With laser hair removal in Acton, MA, you can save yourself from the hassle of these methods and achieve long-term or even permanent hair removal. Say goodbye to shaving, tweezing, waxing, plucking, and electrolysis.

Laser hair removal is a way of targeting the follicles and disabling their ability to grow new hairs. The laser locks onto the pigment in the hair follicles and then the laser energy is applied. The heat from this energy damages the follicle.

Coarse dark hair is the easiest type of hair to remove with this treatment since it contains the most pigment for the laser energy to target.

The energy from the laser also has the effect of tightening the skin in the targeted regions. It stimulates the production of new collagen in the tissues, resulting in healthier and smoother skin.

We utilize the Gentlemax Pro by Candela, which uses 1064 Nd:YAG, and is best suited for darker skin types, and the 755 Alexandrite, which is ideal for lighter complexions.

Laser hair removal in Acton, MA is very precise. You can target small or hard-to-reach areas of the skin and have only the hair on these areas removed. This is especially useful for the removal of unwanted facial hair.

This treatment is also incredibly safe and can be used on any part of your body. While most people prefer to have this treatment carried out on their legs, patients can have their armpits, bikini line, face, and other body areas treated equally effectively with this procedure.

Laser hair removal is a process that can be completed in a very short time depending on the size and number of treatment areas. A small area like the upper lip or chin can be done quickly, whereas a larger area like the back will take longer to address.

When you come in for this treatment, you can expect a comfortable experience. Your skin will be kept cool during treatment, protecting it from the heat of the laser treatment. Many patients report the pulse of laser energy merely feeling like a rubber band snap.

Our laser hair removal in Acton, MA does not require any recovery time and does not leave any scars or marks on the skin. There may be a minor degree of redness in the treated areas for a few days.

You can expect to notice significant and long-lasting hair loss in the treated areas after the recommended number of treatment sessions. Multiple sessions are necessary because only hairs in the growth phase can be effectively treated. Often, eight sessions are recommended to ensure that the patient’s desired results will be achieved.

Laser hair removal in Acton, MA varies in price based on numerous factors. The size and number of treatment areas impact the overall cost, as does your choice of a medical spa.
