Most patients need 4 to 8 sessions spaced several weeks apart to achieve the best results. The number depends on your hair type, skin tone, and treatment area.
Unwanted hair can be frustrating, time-consuming, and even painful to manage with traditional methods like shaving or waxing. If you’re tired of the constant upkeep and irritation, laser hair removal at Advanced Body and Laser Center (ABLC) in Visalia offers a long-lasting solution.
Using advanced laser technology, we provide safe and effective treatments that target hair at the root to reduce regrowth over time. Whether you’re looking to streamline your skincare routine or eliminate unwanted body hair for good, our customized laser hair removal services can help.
Laser hair removal is one of the most popular non-invasive cosmetic treatments available. At ABLC, we use medical-grade laser devices to deliver light energy directly to hair follicles. The pigment in the hair absorbs the energy, which is then converted to heat—this safely disables the follicle and inhibits future hair growth.
Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are needed to catch all follicles in their active growth phase. Over time, you’ll notice finer, lighter, and fewer hairs in the treated area, with many patients achieving long-term hair reduction.
Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that permanently reduces hair growth by targeting the pigment in the follicle with focused light energy. This process damages the follicle, preventing it from producing new hair while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed.
It’s a safe, proven method for achieving smoother skin without the irritation of razors or waxing strips. At ABLC, each treatment is tailored to your unique skin tone, hair type, and aesthetic goals.
The treatment begins by delivering quick pulses of laser light into the hair follicle. The melanin (pigment) in the hair absorbs this energy, causing heat to build up and destroy the follicle’s ability to regrow hair.
Because not all hairs are in the same growth phase at the same time, multiple sessions are necessary for optimal results. Most patients begin to notice a reduction in hair density and thickness after the first few treatments, with continued improvement over time.
The lasers used at ABLC are designed for safety and precision, making them effective for a wide range of skin tones and hair colors.
Laser hair removal is effective for treating unwanted hair on nearly every area of the body. Common treatment goals include:
1.) Hair reduction on the face (upper lip, chin, sideburns)
2.) Underarm and arm hair removal
3.) Leg and bikini area smoothing
4.) Back and chest hair removal
5.) Reducing irritation from ingrown hairs or frequent shaving
In addition to smoother skin, many clients notice improvements in skin texture and tone, especially in areas prone to razor bumps or pigmentation from hair removal methods.
At ABLC in Visalia, we offer laser hair removal treatments designed for a wide range of needs. Our team uses FDA-cleared devices to safely treat various body areas with precision and care.
Common treatment areas include:
Remove unwanted facial hair from the upper lip, chin, jawline, and sideburns for a cleaner, smoother appearance.
Eliminate dark stubble and constant shaving from the underarms and arms with long-lasting results.
Whether you choose a full leg treatment or specific areas like calves or thighs, laser hair removal helps keep your skin smooth with minimal maintenance.
Choose from bikini line, extended bikini, or full Brazilian treatments. Laser hair removal reduces irritation and ingrown hairs common with waxing.
This is a popular option for men looking to reduce hair density or maintain a cleaner look.
Additional treatment areas include the stomach, feet, neck, and hands.
Laser hair removal is a safe and effective solution for many people, regardless of gender.
Laser hair removal is ideal for individuals who:
1.) Want to reduce or eliminate unwanted body or facial hair
2.) Experience irritation from shaving or waxing
3.) Are tired of the time and cost of ongoing hair removal methods
4.) Have dark, coarse hair (although technology now allows treatment of a wider range of hair and skin types)
At ABLC, we customize each treatment plan based on your skin tone, hair texture, and goals to ensure you receive safe and effective results.
Laser hair removal is not right for everyone. You may need to avoid or delay treatment if you:
1.) Are pregnant or breastfeeding
2.) Have a skin infection or active rash in the treatment area
3.) Take medications that increase sun sensitivity
4.) Have very light blonde, red, or gray hair that lacks sufficient pigment for the laser to target
