Thank you for visiting my site. If you have seen "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" then you have caught a glimpse of what my family is like. I have a lot of family members with different skin types but all fall into the category of hairy Persians. I have done laser hair removal on the teens all the way up the family ladder, if I would do laser hair removal on them and they would trust me to do it, then I hope you can feel equally as comfortable. If you have not already, I encourage you to look around our website and learn more about laser hair removal, the process, and Selais MedSpaTM. As always, if you have any questions or would like to set up a consultation then do not hesitate to contact us.
There are pros and cons with laser hair removal. A lot of the cons associated with laser hair removal have been built up by the media, such as someone getting badly burned. The people that get injured are the ones that are trying to get results as quickly as possible. It is important for you to know that laser hair removal is a process and every person has a unique body type. At Selais MedSpaTM we do 8-12 treatments (everyone is different) following with some touch-up treatments. We start you out on a very low intensity and slowly bringing you up with each treatment. About 8 treatments tend to work very well for just about everyone, however, some have seen dramatic results after the 6th treatment. Some clients who have been very nervous about the process have opted to under go more than 8 treatments, so the intensity level can be increased at an even slower rate, this would include the 12 treatment package. Laser hair removal is a 'two way street', Selais MedSpaTM works with you to make the experience the best possible, but in-between and after the treatments YOU have to take care of your skin. (For more information on this please refer to our After Care Guide Page.)
Laser hair removal is considered a costly luxury item, but in the long run it really makes up the difference. If you currently are buying disposable razors and shaving cream, or even waxing, as time goes on you will have spent a lot of money on these quick fixes. For example, when I was working with an optometric practice, lasik correction vision was new to the market and costly. Some would pay more for contact lenses and glasses and lenses within a few years than they would have paid on a single lasik treatment. When we showed the clients the overall savings they realized how much they would be saving and were thankful for the option. With laser hair removal you will be paying less in the long run for this luxury item. As this is a process, not a one time treatment, you cannot get a one time quick fix, but in the end you can expect long lasting, smooth skin that you cannot achieve with a razor, plus no more unsightly ingrown hair.
Cutera's ProWave 770, high-tech solution works on many skin types, on any part of the body, however Selais MedSpaTM still needs to do test spots and explain the process and procedure behind laser hair removal when you come in for your one time free consultation. It is during this consultation that we do a test strip to set the expectation and for you to see how your skin will react. You need to be comfortable with me as I need to be comfortable with you. For Hispanics, Mediterraneans, and other ethnic skin types the Cutera ProWave 770 does not discolor the skin's natural pigmentation. Although the skin is not determined by your ethnicity, but by what is called the Fitzpatrick Scale. However, those with unnatural tans should be cautious and must take extreme caution with the care of their skin. Which is why for our clients who are planning a family vacation or will be hanging out at the pool or taking a cruise getaway trip, we work around their schedule and space out treatments for the best results and for your skin's safety. Make sure to use sunscreen and constantly hydrate your skin by moisturizing it.
Men and women today are concerned about their appearance. Laser hair removal can help boost your self esteem by taking away your unwanted hair. As with everything in life there are pros and cons that go along with each decision you make. We feel that the pros greatly out way the cons at Selais MedSpaTM. If you are interested in laser hair removal and would like to see if it is the right thing for you please do not hesitate to contact us to set up a consultation appointment.
The best thing about laser hair removal with Selais MedSpaTM is what I hear from my clients the most, they have fun. I care about my clients and make sure we also have fun because it is their time too.
Looking forward to seeing you,
Valeh
