Hair Removal Therapy:

Q: What body areas can I get treated?
A: Any area, except around the eyes. The underarms, legs, back, bikini line, face, neck, etc., can all be treated...fast!

Q: What are the treatment sessions like?
A: Quick and easy! After your initial preparation, your treatment will consist of a wand-like hand piece moved over your skin. The hand piece emits a light that disables the hair follicles. Most people perceive the light as a gentle "snapping" sensation. Once this is completed the treatment provider will wipe away any loose hair from your skin, and you're ready to go.

Q: What should most people expect after treatment?
A: Most people experience some mild redness and tenderness in the treated area shortly after treatment. This does not interfere with normal activities and usually subsides within a day. In some cases, the redness may last longer, but will still be mild and temporary. Your treatment provider will explain other, less likely side effects to you.

Q: What is the difference between laser and pulsed-light treatments?
A: Pulsed-light systems and lasers are very similar and remove hair in basically the same way. However, the Palomar Medilux uses a new technology that removes hair up to ten times faster than lasers. Medilux pulsed-light treatments can fit even the busiest person's schedule.
