True Beauty Blog, LaFerriere & Kienstra Facial Plastic Surgery

Have you tried to shave or wax hair away, and irritated your skin? Imagine removing unwanted hair without razor or wax burns! Try what works: laser hair reduction. Drs. LaFerriere and Kienstra offer this treatment (also known as broad band light hair reduction) to patients with large and small problem areas.

How it works:

By sending a filtered and highly concentrated beam of light to the root of the hair follicle, we are able to target the melanin of the follicle; thus reducing the growth of the hair. Most people feel only a slight tingling sensation during treatment, much of which can be completely rid of by using a topical numbing cream.

There is little to no skin irritation from this procedure. The procedure can take as little as five minutes for a small area or up to an hour for large areas. Remember, hair grows in cycles, so you may need several sessions to achieve the desired effect. If you want to reduce up to 90% of unwanted hair, call us at 417-887-3223 and get started.
