The Best Permanent Hair Removal Options
Winter is a great time to look into the procedures you’ve been thinking about all year—after all, what better way to start the new year fresh? Permanent hair removal is often at the top of the list, so skin is smooth and ready when the summer sun arrives. Professional hair removal is a safe and effective procedure, whereas shaving, waxing, and plucking are painful and can lead to conditions like folliculitis. While permanent hair removal can be more costly, the price is well worth it when considering the cost of regular waxing or keeping up with day-to-day shaving.
Whether you are looking for silky smooth legs or something more specific, New River Dermatology offers a variety of permanent hair removal solutions. From IPL to laser, we’ve got an option to suit your unique needs. Check out our list of permanent hair removal options below or give our office a call to learn more!
Laser hair treatments are often thought of as permanent, however this particular procedure is classified as semi-permanent due to the multiple sessions needed to achieve long-lasting results. The laser hair removal process works by detecting and destroying the pigment in your hair follicle cells. This treatment can be used on the bikini line, facial area, back, underarms, or legs. Treatments take as little as 15 minutes and you will be on your way!
BBL and Cool Glide Laser
For more permanent options when it comes to getting rid of unwanted hair, both Broad-Based Laser (BBL) and Cool Glide Laser treatments are here to help. BBL is a type of laser treatment that sends light energy deep into the skin to help get rid of hair (as well as acne, in other applications). Cool Glide Laser treatment is one of the best on the market for hair removal, no matter what your skin tone or type. It’s especially great if you have some facial hair you want to get rid of—and it’s totally noninvasive.
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is also a great option for treating the chin, lips, or anywhere else you might see a little peach fuzz. Unlike lasers, dermaplaning is actually a type of exfoliation. Aestheticians use a surgical scalpel to “shave” the dead skin and fuzz, resulting in super-smooth, hairless skin. One dermaplaning treatment can remove 21 days worth of dead cells, making this a great option for those wanting something semi-permanent without the hassle or pain of waxing.
