Tired of shaving or waxing?
The answer is "laser hair removal". Only four to six treatments
are needed to remove that unwanted hair. And large areas can be
treated rapidly and accurately, without irritating your skin.
For laser hair removal and other esthetic medicine needs, contact
Dr. Prescott's Montreal and Joliette clinics in Quebec.
EpiTouch Alexandritre Laser Hair Removal
The EpiTouch Alexandritre laser hair removal
is ideal for large skin surfaces, as it is quick and gives long
lasting results. This laser targets the pigment inside the hair
and destroys a great quantity of it without affecting the surrounding
skin. A clear gel is applied on the skin and laser beams are quickly
emitted on the treated areas.
Sensitivity
The laser is virtually painless. However, in some
cases more sensitive areas can be frozen.
New hair growth
The growth of new hair follows specific cycles,
from a stage of active growth to a stage of total rest. At each
session, the laser attacks the hair that is in the growth stage.
The dormant hair is left untouched. It will eventually become active,
will start to grow again and additional sessions will be needed in order
to remove all the hair.
Special cases
White hair and dark skin are more difficult to treat.
An evaluation is made of each individual case before treatment.
