Laser Hair Removal
For many men and women, unwanted hair can be a nightmare. Until now the only options for removing unwanted hair were smelly hair removal creams, sharp razors, stinging wax or painful electrolysis needles. Diode Lightsheer Laser's advanced approach to beautiful skin provides the ultimate solution. Now, men and women alike will be pleased with the results made possible by our laser hair removal process.
What is the  Laser Hair Removal process?
The Diode Lightsheer process uses laser light to gently remove unwanted hair, putting an end to routine shaving and waxing. Laser treatments leave your skin looking and feeling smoother and silkier. This patented technology transcends the older, painful hair removal treatments to deliver long-lasting results. Lightsheer's laser beam can treat larger areas such as the back, shoulders, arms, legs and face rather than treating one hair at a time, such as in electrolysis. Best of all, laser hair removal is a safe, fast, gentle and most effective method for hair removal.
Benefits of Laser Hair Removal
  • Large areas may be treated at one time.
  • Little or no pain involved
  • Combines the speed of shaving with the lasting results promised by electrolysis.
  • Almost no chance for scarring and pigmentation change.
  • Laser hair removal is effective on almost any area of the body where smoother, younger-looking hair-free skin is desired.
How many treatments will I need?

The number of treatments you may require for optimal long-term benefits depends on the area you wish to have treated, the hair density and your hair's growth cycle. Your hair grows in cycles and many factors influence its growth. Age, ethnicity, weight, hormones, diet, medication and metabolism all play a part in your hair's location, thickness and resilience.

The laser destroys the growing capacity of follicles in their growth at the time of thetreatment. Since some hair follicles may enter their growth cycle after your treatment, three or four treatments, on the average, may be required to deliver optimal results.

Note: Removing hair does not make it grow back thicker, darker or quicker. The opposite is usually the case. Laser treatments may cause hair to come back slower and thinner
.
How does laser hair removal differ from electrolysis?
Electrolysis is a much slower process. With electrolysis, a needle is actually inserted into each hair follicle, one at a time. Once inserted an electric shock burns the follicle to retard growth. With laser hair removal, a number of hairs are treated with each pulse of the laser, thus making it possible to treat larger areas.  Laser hair removal is also less painful.
Following treatment
After your treatment, the area is cleansed and you can return to your normal activities immediately. Your physician may recommend that you use a specially formulated skin care product line or prescribe a skin care regime especially formulated for your skin type. After the laser treatment, the use of sun screen is recommended on any treated areas exposed to the sun.
