Who is a Good Candidate for Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal with Excel V+ is ideal for individuals seeking a long-term solution to unwanted hair. Suitable for men and women of various ages, this treatment is especially effective for those with contrasting hair and skin tone. Areas that can be treated include:

• Face
• Neck
• Chest
• Back
• Underarms
• Arms
• Bikini line
• Brazilian
• Legs (half or full)
• Full body

However, certain conditions, such as specific skin disorders or very light hair, may require a different approach.

Before & Afters

After a single laser treatment, you may find the hair in the treated area is less dense and finer. However, full results will appear after a series of treatments, as hair in different growth stages is effectively targeted.

What to Expect from Your Laser Hair Removal Treatment

Laser hair removal at MD365 Aesthetics is a straightforward and efficient process, designed to deliver the best possible results with your comfort in mind.

Consultation

Your experience begins with a personalized consultation to assess your skin and hair type, discuss your goals and review your medical history. This step ensures that Laser Hair Removal is the right choice for you and helps us customize your treatment plan.

Procedure

During your treatment session, you’ll be provided with safety eyewear to protect your eyes from the laser light. The Excel V+ device will then be adjusted according to your specific needs, and a cooling gel may be applied to the treatment area to enhance comfort. As the laser is applied, you might feel a sensation similar to a rubber band snapping against your skin. Treatment times vary depending on the area being treated, ranging from a few minutes for smaller areas like the upper lip to an hour for larger areas like full legs.

Recovery

Recovery time from laser hair removal is minimal. You may experience some redness and swelling in the treated area, akin to mild sunburn, but these symptoms typically subside within a few hours to a few days. Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the session.

Follow-Ups

Multiple laser hair removal sessions are usually required to achieve optimal results, as the treatment is most effective on hair in its active growth phase. Follow-up treatments are usually spaced 4-6 weeks apart, and your practitioner will guide you through the scheduling based on your hair growth cycle and the initial response to treatment. Regular touch-ups may be recommended to maintain the smooth, hair-free results.

How Much Does Laser Hair Removal Cost?

The cost of your treatment varies based on the treatment area size, hair density and the number of sessions required. At MD365 Aesthetics, we offer transparent pricing and customized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs. Contact us for more information and to schedule your consultation.

Can Laser Hair Removal with Excel V+ Treat All Hair Colors Effectively?

New laser systems like the Excel V+ have revolutionized the approach to reducing unwanted hair, offering a solution that caters to a broad spectrum of hair colors. However, individuals with lighter hair colors such as blond, gray or red may find that the treatment is less effective for them. The reason for this is that lighter hair contains less pigment, which serves as the target for the laser energy. Without sufficient pigment to absorb the laser light, the follicles of lighter hair are less likely to be affected by the treatment.

For those with lighter hair or  darker skin seeking laser hair removal, a consultation with a skilled practitioner is key. During this consultation, the practitioner can assess your hair and skin type to determine the most appropriate treatment plan. In some cases, alternative or supplementary treatments may be recommended to achieve the desired results.
