HOW DOES A LASER HAIR REMOVAL (ELITE IQ) SESSION TAKE PLACE?
An Elite IQ laser hair removal session generally takes place as follows:
Initial consultation: Before starting the laser hair removal sessions, you will have an initial consultation with a qualified professional. This consultation will examine your skin type, hair color and density, discuss your medical history, and determine if laser hair removal is right for you.
Skin preparation: Before the treatment, your skin will be cleansed and shaved to allow the laser to reach the hair follicles.
Laser treatment: During the laser hair removal session, a qualified professional will use an Elite IQ laser device to emit a pulsed light which will be absorbed by the melanin of the hair. This absorption of light will transform the energy into heat, damaging the hair follicle and preventing hair regrowth. The laser only targets the hair follicles, without damaging the surrounding skin.
Skin cooling: Most modern hair removal lasers, including the Elite IQ, have a built-in cooling system that helps relieve the sensation of heat and minimize damage to surrounding skin.
Post-treatment: After the treatment, a soothing cream may be applied to the treated area to help relieve discomfort or irritation.
