LASER HAIR REMOVAL
Laser hair removal is the permanent solution to shaving, waxing, and electrolysis for both men and women. If you are looking for a comfortable, effective way to remove unwanted facial or body hair, you owe it to yourself to consider Ageless Skin and laser hair removal. With the latest laser technology at Ageless Skin the procedure has become less painful and requires less visits. At Ageless Skin, we use an Alexandrite laser (Candela) that has become the " state of the art " hair removal laser. It removes hair with less discomfort and more reliability than other methods of hair removal. The Alexandrite laser features a cooling device that blows "cold air" on the skin during the laser treatment that provides the patient with increased comfort.

See "The Truth About Laser Hair Removal" by Erin Owoc, Dermatology Nurse Practitioner below for more information on Davie Laser Hair Removal. All Plantation Cooper City and Davie and Weston Laser Hair Removal procedures are performed by Erin Owoc, Dermatology ARNP-C.

I have been performing Davie, Cooper City, Plantation and Weston laser hair removal over the past 8 years and would like to share with you my experiences by answering questions my patients commonly ask:

What is the difference between IPL and a Laser for hair removal?
A laser (specifically a Candela GentleLASE 755nm alexandrite laser) delivers light at one specific wavelength, which is specific for hair. The energy that is used is much more effective and safer in destroying the hair follicle. An IPL machine (which is not a laser) delivers a wide range of wavelengths and thus has a higher risk in damaging skin at higher energy levels. The results are not even comparable. A true “laser” is so much more effective at removing hair than an IPL. A lot of people that have received treatments elsewhere ask why they have had fifteen treatments and still have a lot of hair. It is either because of an IPL device or lack of skill in the practitioner operating the laser.

How many times do I need to go back and why?
Hair has three phases in the growth cycle and not all of your hair is in the same phase at the same time. The hair follicle must be in the active growth state for the laser to be effective. So no matter if you spend one session for 10 hours, you can never destroy all of the hair follicles in one visit. The average number of treatments is 4. The time for each visit depends on the area treated. On average it is a 15-minute treatment time.
