I TRIED HAIR REMOVAL AND ENDED UP WITH BETTER SKIN!

Laser hair removal is pretty much the norm these days. Let’s face it, who really has the time to deal with waxing and shaving on a weekly basis. Besides, we don’t need another wardrobe-limiting factor in our lives.

But did you know that the benefits of laser hair removal do not just stop at removing hair for the long term? The same laser energy used for removing unwanted hair can also improve the texture and appearance of your skin! The caveat though is that this works when it uses a gold standard wavelength of either YAG or Alex. This also means the treatment can be done effectively for both light and dark skinned individuals whereas hair removal using IPL runs the risk of burning darker skinned patients. Ouch!

Common skincare concerns like acne scars, freckles and pore sizes can be improved using a gold standard laser. Besides tackling skin-deep skin concerns, the laser works deeper into the lower layers of tissue for enhanced skin benefits.

Here’s how laser hair removal can improve the quality of your skin at every layer.

#1 Skin rejuvenation
When we talk about skin rejuvenation, we’re referring the process of removing existing damage from the skin also known as the epidermis. Skin damage could be an accumulation of everyday pollution, dead skin cells and sun exposure. Damaged skin generally looks dull and aged. While laser hair removal can remove hair, it can also help to laser away sun spots, helping skin to achieve a more even skin tone. Give it time and commit to at least 6 sessions to see a marked improvement in both texture and tone.

#2 Collagen production
Laser energy from these laser treatments can reach into the middle layer of the dermis to render hair follicle dormant. But it’s also here where collagen can be found. As we all know, collagen is the essential building blocks of our skin, without it our skin will lose its elasticity and support. By reaching into this layer, laser stimulates the production of collagen, delaying the onslaught of aging.

Pair it with: Age Defy, packed with Vitamin A, C and E and hyaluronic acid to firm skin and fight wrinkles. Skin is plumped, toned and firmed with this multitasking wonder cream.

#3 Skin tightening
While the laser treatments work by stimulating collagen production under your skin, a bonus side effect is that skin is tighter, more toned and more supple. Exactly what young skin is like! Best of all it doesn’t just end when laser treatments end. You can continue to reap the skincare benefits even 6 months after treatment.
