Colorado Laser hair removal directory information

Laser hair removal is available in a wide variety of Colorado cosmetic medical practices, including Colorado medical spas, Colorado dermatologists, and Colorado plastic surgeons.

In Colorado, laser hair removal is usually priced in a package of treatments, because the procedure is only effective in a series. Some hair removal lasers can treat all skin types and hair colors, although blond and gray hair tends to be the most difficult to take out.

How does laser hair removal work?

Laser hair removal treatment involves the delivery of laser energy through the skin to the hair follicle underneath, where the energy is absorbed by the hair and transformed into heat. The hair follicle is destroyed in this process, preventing new hair from growing.

Most laser hair removal devices are designed to target dark colors. Those with very light skin and dark hair are the best candidates for permanent laser hair removal. Darker skin pigment will absorb some of the laser light energy, so those with darker skin tend to benefit less from the procedure.

Colorado laser hair removal clinics typically offer the treatment in a package or series. There is currently no single-treatment method for laser removal of hair. Because every person's growth pattern is unique, the amount of treatments will vary.

Side effects of laser hair removal can include blistering, changes in pigmentation, mild swelling, redness, and scarring.

Does laser hair removal hurt?

Some of the lasers on the market today vary greatly and may or may not use a cooling device. A cooling device will increase the comfort level of the procedure by preventing the upper layers of skin from getting too hot while effectively treating the follicle below.

How many treatments of laser hair removal are required?

Most patients require a cycle of four to eight treatments over a period of months. Even after completing treatment, it is possible to experience some scattered regrowth. The remaining hair may be removed by electrolysis or can be maintained conventionally with waxing or shaving.

Tips for consumers in Colorado considering laser hair removal

1. The practice of professional hair removal is generally regulated by Colorado state and local authorities. Check your state's guidelines for specifics.

2. If a topical anesthetic is required for treatment, discuss the circumstances under which the cream should be used, and verify whether the use is appropriate in your situation.

3. Verify that your provider is licensed and trained to provide laser hair removal.

4. Patients, especially those with darker skin tones, should carefully research the device to be used and be certain that the technology has been tested and proven for your skin type.
