Overview
Permanently reducing the appearance of stomach hair
Unwanted stomach hair is a common concern and can get more severe as we age and with hormones changes. The hair that seems to appear as we age has actually been there all along, we just didn’t notice it. We have fine, downy hair called vellus that covers the majority of our skin. As we age, our prolonged exposure to testosterone transforms the vellus into thicker coarser hair. Testosterone in the hair follicles can cause hair to grow differently as we age. You may start to notice an increase in hair in your eyebrows, ears, arms, legs and underarms as well as seeing a decrease in the hair on your scalp.
Most methods of hair removal are simple and don’t cost very much, but they don’t solve the problem permanently. If you’re frustrated and tired of shaving, waxing or plucking – permanent laser hair removal might be a great option for you.
WHAT CAN BE DONE?
How we can reduce the appearance and formation of stomach hair
Plucking and waxing hurt, shaving can cause ingrown hairs and cuts if you’re not careful and hair removal creams can sting sensitive skin. Only laser hair removal can help you to avoid all of these hair removal side effects while providing you with an effective and permanent solution to unwanted hair.
Laser hair removal works by emitting a light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the follicles that produce hairs. This damage significantly reduces future hair growth. Laser hair removal is a painless, quick and safe way to remove unwanted hair with no downtime.
OUR TREATMENTS
Treatments available for stomach hair
During your consultation, we will evaluate your skin type and hair colour and create a plan to help you eliminate all of your unwanted hair. Multiple treatments are recommended as each treatment results in about 20% hair reduction. With each new cycle of growth, less hair grows back. After a sufficient number of treatments (depending on hair/skin type and the area being treated) you will notice permanent hair reduction.
Laser Hair Removal
The Soprano ICE Platinum combines 3 laser technologies into one to treat painlessly, effectively, efficiently, and faster than ever before. The SHR technology and In-Motion™ techniques ensure that the hair follicles are heated up to the effective temperature instead of being treated with a single high-energy pulse like the traditional laser hair removal machines.
