COPYRIGHT. DUPLICATION IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED.

This patient information brochure is intended to supplement, not replace, consultation with your physician or laser hair removal technician regarding laser hair removal.

Please consult with your physician/laser hair removal technician if you have additional questions or if you have questions that may not be covered in this Patient Information document.

Hair removal works best when there is color in the hair. People with light hair may see only moderate improvement and may need a greater number of treatment sessions. Dark hair responds best and white hair does not respond at all.

Q. Is laser hair removal permanent?

Treatment results may vary amongst patients. CoolGlide ( the laser technology utilized by Miami Laser Hair Removal) is cleared by the FDA for Permanent Hair Reduction.

Q. What does it feel like?

The laser treatment may feel like a mild sting for a fraction of a second. It has a built-in cooling tip that not only helps to protect the skin but also helps to minimize discomfort.

Q. How long does the treatment take?

An upper lip and chin can be done in 5 to 10 minutes. Underarms or bikini lines usually take 15 to 20 minutes. Legs and backs take longer. Very often, follow-up treatments are shorter because there is much less hair to treat.

Q. How many treatments are necessary?

This is very important to understand. Hair grows in 3 stages of development. Typically in the anagen stage, the hair will respond more effectively to treatment. At any given time, only one third of human hair is in the anagen stage. For this reason, it is necessary to treat an area about 12 times spaced approximately 6 weeks apart in order to see the longest lasting results. Darker hair will respond better. Miami Laser Hair Removal gives all patients a life-time guarantee if you’ve had the 12 treatments done spaced out every 6 weeks.

Q. Results- What should you expect?

There is often no immediate change. Your skin may get slightly red or even develop a small crust that will peel. The laser may leave small red marks on your skin. The marks clear up in a few days. The hair that has been destroyed will not start to fall out for 2-3 weeks. Many times it will get darker and thicker just before it falls out. Don’t worry if you do not see an obvious change immediately after your first treatment. Typically, into your third treatmet you will notice a favorable difference.

Q. Are Hispanics or African-Americans good candidates for laser hair removal?

That depends. Not all laser technologies are suitable to treat brown or black skin. However, the great news is that CoolGlide ( which Miami Laser Hair Removal utilizes) is the only laser technology approved by the FDA to treat dark or black skin without causing any discoloration.
