Treatment Overview

During laser hair removal, a high-powered beam of light is directed into the hair follicles. By absorbing the light, the pigment in the hair follicles destroys the hair without damaging the skin around it. The procedure is precise, fast, and highly effective, with significant hair growth reduction after several treatments. At Viva MedSpa, our experienced technicians use cutting-edge laser technology to eliminate hair from targeted areas. Each session is customized based on your skin type, hair type, and the areas being treated.

What To Expect

Before Treatment
Before your session, avoid exposure to the sun and the use of tanning products. For optimal results, it is recommended that you shave the treatment area the day before your appointment.

During Treatment
The session typically lasts 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treated area. You may feel slight discomfort, similar to a light rubber band snap, but most clients find it tolerable.

After Treatment
The treated area may feel mildly red or sensitive, which usually subsides within a few hours. Apply sunscreen to treated areas and avoid direct sun exposure.

Maintenance

While laser hair removal offers long-term hair reduction, multiple sessions (typically 4-6) are required for optimal results, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. Occasional maintenance sessions may be needed, especially for finer or lighter hair areas.

Ideal Candidates

In addition to women, men can also benefit from laser hair removal if they are looking to reduce hair growth on areas like the face, legs, back, underarms, and bikini line. It is especially effective for individuals with darker hair and lighter skin tones, though advancements in laser technology have made it safe for a wider range of skin types.
