Laser Hair Removal

Now men and women alike are making unwanted facial and body hair a thing of the past, thanks to Lasers. No more painful waxing, electrolysis or razors! Permanent hair redcution can be achieved on all skin type.

Hair grows in three distinct cycles. First, the active or growth cycle (Anagen); next, the dormant cycle (Catagen) and, finally, the fall-out or shedding cycle (Telogen). Laser Hair Removal is most effective during the growth cycle (Anagen).

The pigment in the hair follicle absorbs the laser light and converts the light to heat. The heat, in turn, damages the follicle and destroys its ability to re-grow. It is important to treat each follicle during the growth cycle for maximum hair reduction. 6-8 treatments are normally required and in some cases more may be needed. The New You has both a YAG laser and an alexanderite laser so patients with fair to dark skin can be safely and effectively treated.
