Does Laser Hair Removal Hurt?

Some people who avoid hair removal laser treatment do so because they fear it will be painful like some other forms of hair removal.  In reality, laser hair removal is quite painless.  If anything, some clients report feeling small prickles on their skin.

How Long Does Hair Removal Laser Treatment Take?

The length of each session and your overall laser hair removal treatment will vary depending on the thickness of your hair and body part(s) being treated.  For instance, full body hair removal will require longer sessions than full legs laser.  In general, most laser hair removal treatments can be performed in under 30 minutes and require approximately eight sessions to complete.

Always Ready for Summer Fun!

We all love summer in New York!  How many times have you had the opportunity to participate in a summer activity, only to be sidelined by the fact that you have not shaved. Bikini lines, underarms and other areas are no longer a problem once you have hair removal laser treatment.

best laser hair removal in NYC

When it comes to permanent laser hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is considered one of the best.  Whether we are performing hair removal laser treatment on a single area or full body hair removal, you can trust us to provide you with quality services at affordable prices.  Let’s take a look at some reasons why we are considered the best laser hair removal in NYC:

Equipment

We use the FDA cleared Candela medical laser.  Candela laser hair removal is safe and effective on all skin types.  Many laser hair removal centers do not use lasers at all; instead they use intense pulsed light (IPL). IPL is considered an alternative to waxing and is not designed for permanent hair removal.  Manhattan Laser Centers performs Candela laser hair removal because it is permanent.

Transparent Pricing

When you come in for hair removal laser treatment, you can trust there will be no hidden fees or costs.  Whether we are treating a single area (i.e. full legs laser treatment, facial hair removal with laser, etc.) or performing full body hair removal, you will be presented with all associated costs up front.

Laser Hair Removal or Electrolysis: Which is Better?

We are often asked about the differences between laser hair removal and electrolysis.  Laser hair removal was actually developed to replace the “older” technology of electrolysis.  Let’s take a look at some of the differences:

Side Effects

When considering laser hair removal or electrolysis, laser hair removal has much less risk of side effects than electrolysis. Scarring and/or infection may occur with electrolysis. When performed by an experienced professional, laser hair removal using an FDA cleared medical laser is completely safe.

Treatment Time

Most areas can be treated with a laser in a few minutes.  Electrolysis takes much more time per session.  And, in most cases, electrolysis requires an average of 30 treatments whereas with laser hair removal, the desired result can often be achieved within 10 treatments.

Comfort

Bottom line, electrolysis hurts!  Electrolysis involves placing a needle into the hair follicle and passing electric current through the follicle.  This not only results in pain and discomfort but swelling as well. It is for this reason alone that when many people are asked if they would like laser hair removal or electrolysis, they choose laser hair removal.

Full Body Hair Removal

When it comes to full body hair removal, laser hair removal is much more practical and comfortable than electrolysis.  The number of electrolysis treatments needed for full body hair removal is extremely high compared to laser hair removal.

Why settle for electrolysis when you can get the best laser hair removal in NYC.  Manhattan Laser Centers is experienced, affordable and gender agnostic.  We happily welcome both men and women.  Give us a call to book your appointment today!

Laser Hair Removal: Why You Should Not DIY

We live in a do-it-yourself (DIY) society where people take on just about anything and everything from home remodeling to making their own beer and wine.  While DIY can be fun and rewarding in some areas, there are other areas that should be saved for the professionals.  Laser hair removal is one of them.  Sadly, there are many DIY laser hair removal kits that are flooding the market.  While they may sound like a bargain, there are many reasons to avoid DIY laser hair removal:

Safety

The safety of DIY laser hair removal treatments is questionable at best.  A trained professional using an FDA cleared medical laser has the knowledge and experience to safely perform laser hair removal treatments.  They also know how to adjust the laser to different skin types and can address specific concerns such as sensitive skin.

Effectiveness

The goal of laser hair removal is to achieve permanent hair reduction and/or removal.  DIY laser hair removal methods are often not only ineffective, but it is difficult to gauge the current length and number of treatments needed without professional training and experience.

Complications

The adverse reactions associated with DIY laser hair removal is significant.  Some of the side effects of DIY laser hair removal include swelling, redness, blisters, scarring and discoloration.

Full Body Hair Removal

Full body hair removal is a process that should only be performed by a trained professional.  When it comes to full body hair removal, DIY methods should definitely be ruled out.

If you want the best laser hair removal in NYC, look no further.  Not only are we professional and experienced, but we are also affordable.  DIY comes with many problems that make it not worth the risk.  Why use a questionable DIY method when the best laser hair removal in NYC is within reach?  Give Manhattan Laser Centers a call to book your appointment today.

Best Laser Hair Removal in NYC

Part Two

Manhattan Laser Centers has been treating men for more than two decades.  We are one of the few laser centers that treat men, which is one reason why we are considered by many to be the best laser hair removal in NYC.

We often see men who have previously tried depilation, laser hair removal or electrolysis.  Depilation and electrolysis are not permanent, and laser hair removal performed by an unqualified treatment center often yields undesirable results.

Whether you are seeking full body hair removal or a specific area such as back laser hair removal, facial laser hair removal or buttocks laser hair removal, we can help!  We are sensitive to the special needs of men and are happy to answer your questions.  Here are a few common questions we receive about laser hair removal for men:

Can people tell that I removed my hair?

Once the lasered hair falls out (usually after seven days), you will look as if you never had hair in that area.  This applies to both area specific hair removal (i.e. facial laser hair removal, back laser hair removal, buttocks laser hair removal, etc.) as well as full body hair removal.

Will it look natural?

Absolutely. In fact, it will look natural and more aesthetic than before.  This is not the case with other non-permanent methods such as waxing, electrolysis or depilation. Laser hair removal will result in a significant improvement and will not cause new problems. There is no downside to laser hair removal for men.

Will it look natural in-between the sessions? Can I take my shirt off before my treatments are complete?

Absolutely. You will look natural after the first seven days. During laser hair removal treatment, we will kill the roots and it will take seven days for them to fall out. Once they fall out the pores will close in and your skin will look perfectly smooth, as if you never had hair to begin with. You will not be able to tell that you ever needed the treatment and can go to the beach or pool enjoying your new image. This is not the case with waxing, electrolysis or depilation.
