Laser Hair Removal

GET SMOOTH, SILKY SKIN WITH LASER HAIR REMOVAL

Make shaving and waxing a thing of the past with laser hair removal treatment at Omni Centers!

Laser hair removal is a noninvasive option for reducing unwanted body or facial hair. It is easier and longer-lasting than waxing or shaving, and is associated with minimal discomfort and no downtime. At our medical spa in Olympia, WA, we offer laser hair removal for the following areas:

  • Brazilian, Manzilian
  • Full Back
  • Full Face
  • And More

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE?

Individuals who have unwanted facial or body hair that makes them feel self-conscious, are looking for an alternative to waxing, shaving, or bleaching, and those who have dark hair and light skin can often benefit most from laser hair removal. Darker hairs absorb the laser light better, and lighter skin allows more transmission of the laser light into the hair follicle. The best way to determine if laser hair removal is right for you is through a free consultation.

LASER HAIR REMOVAL PROCEDURE

During the laser hair removal treatment, patients will be given protective eyewear. A cool gel will be used to ensure a comfortable treatment and a test area done first to ensure your optimal settings. Then, the IPL laser will be directed spot- by-spot to the treatment areas, disabling those unwanted active hair follicles. Because hair grows in different cycles, multiple treatment sessions are recommended for optimal results.

No downtime is needed after a laser hair removal session at Omni Centers. While the treated area may initially be red or mildly irritated, these side effects will fade over the next several hours. It is important to avoid sun exposure and always wear sunscreen on the treated areas. Results from laser hair removal are long-lasting.

FAQs

There is no laser that has received FDA clearance for a claim of permanent hair removal. All laser hair removal can be considered permanent hair reduction. That is defined by the FDA as 85% or greater hair reduction. It is possible that follicles in the treated area, while not being completely destroyed, will be sufficiently disabled to the point where they produce only fine, light hairs that do not respond to further treatment. This is backed up by extensive clinical studies and you should be wary of anyone who claims otherwise.
This IPL targets the pigment located in the hair follicle and shaft. The light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle and this energy is converted to heat which results in damage to the hair follicle. This damage causes delayed re-growth of hair and, in most cases, permanent destruction of many of the hair follicles. Unlike electrolysis, which disables one hair follicle at a time, the IPL reaches and treats hundreds of follicles at a time.
The Viora’s PCR™IPL system was developed from years of research for focusing on physician control, patient satisfaction, ease of use, and clinical efficacy our. Our leading, proprietary technologies are based on years of clinical and R&D experience. The IPL is pulsed, or turned on, for only a fraction of a second and the duration of each pulse is just long enough to disable the hair follicles. A unique component of the Viora’s PCR™IPL is an actively cooled sapphire hand piece was designed to protect the skin by actively cooling it before, during and after the IPL light is transmitted. It also actively draws off heat from the skin surface, which further protects the skin from injury.
The cooling tip has a mild anesthetic property, which allows tender areas to be treated in a relatively painless fashion. You will feel a tingling or stinging sensation during the treatment, but most people tolerate the procedure well. Following your treatment, you may experience a sunburn-type sensation in the treated area for several hours.

Omni Centers recommends six treatments. In fact, it is not uncommon for a person to need six or seven or more. There are a variety of factors that can influence the total number of treatments any individual may require to achieve the desired results.
Post treatment reactions vary depending on the coarseness, density and color of the hair and the area being treated. In general terms, most patients experience redness similar to a mild sunburn.
No, in fact we ask that you do shave the area you want treated. We are actually targeting the anatomical structures below the skin. Surface hair interferes with this process.
Typically, our treatments are spaced from 4 weeks to 10 weeks, depending on the area of the body that is treated.
