3 Ways Laser Hair Removal Can Improve Your Life

Posted September 13, 2021 in Laser Hair Removal

2 Minute Read: 

The frustration of removing body hair on a daily basis is familiar to many men and women. 

Whether you shave, wax, or pluck, it’s a time-consuming hassle that can be tough on the skin. One of the best ways out of that tiresome routine involves laser hair removal. It’s a non-invasive technique that uses high-intensity light to destroy hair follicles, obstructing the re-growth of the hair.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Laser Hair Removal?

Anyone tired of body hair removal methods who want to streamline their grooming routine is a good candidate for laser hair removal. 

It also helps to be in general good health, without any pre-existing skin conditions. If you have sensitive skin, post-treatment inflammation may be a concern. And if your skin is darker, there may be temporary changes to its pigment. 

Discuss any concerns with your technician, but rest assured that this process is extremely safe, and all of these issues should fade with time.

What Are the Top Benefits of Laser Hair Removal?

In addition to making you feel great — and less self-conscious about exposing your body on the beach or elsewhere — laser hair removal with the GentleYAG Pro-U™ has other significant benefits. 

Here are just a few of the primary ways in which laser hair removal treatments can improve your life:

1. Saves Time

It takes time to shave your legs, face, or armpits and then properly care for your skin post-shave. Laser hair removal can put an end to all of that, freeing you up for more fun things or making space in your personal care routine for other priorities.

2. Can Reduce Cost Long-Term

Although it’s a bit of an investment for initial laser hair removal treatments, it can save you money in the long run. After the first four to six treatments (on average), only occasional maintenance should be required. 

And any new hair growth will be much finer and lighter than usual. 

Think of it — no more replacing razors, shave cream, or after-shave lotions. And, as they say, time is money too.

3. Eliminates Razor Burn and Other Discomfort

Razor burn, accidental nicks and cuts, razor rash — laser hair removal can help you avoid all of these minor yet annoying skin irritations. 

Rather than risk infection on a daily or weekly basis, laser hair removal can ensure that you simply don’t have to give the hair on your legs, armpits, or elsewhere a second thought. Imagine the freedom!
