Why You Shouldn’t Use An Inexperienced Laser Hair Removal Provider

Inexperienced Laser Hair Removal

We are continuing our series on the pitfalls of using an inexperienced laser hair removal provider. Our previous series covered how burns, blistering, and unwanted skin changes can occur.  Today, we will look at three more reasons to avoid a laser hair removal center that does not have a proven track record and employs inexperienced technicians.

Infections

Infections are common among inexperienced laser hair removal center providers.  Infected hair follicles are especially unsightly and can even be painful.  Depending on the sensitivity of your skin, permanent discoloring or even scarring can occur as a result of an infection.

Scarring

Scarring is another issue that can occur as a result of an inexperienced laser hair removal technician.  You want to use a hair removal laser treatment provider that has comprehensive knowledge of the biology of the skin and understands how to properly use the laser to perform your laser hair removal treatment.

Ineffective

When hair removal laser treatment is not performed properly or with the right equipment, it can be ineffective. For permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers makes sure every technician has the knowledge and experience to perform effective laser hair removal treatments.

If you want permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is the place to go for the best hair removal treatment in Manhattan and surrounding areas. Our experienced and trained laser hair removal staff are exceptionally qualified to handle any and all types of hair removal, including full legs laser and full body hair removal. Don’t trust just anyone with your hair removal laser treatment. Give us a call or schedule an appointment today!

Pitfalls of Using an Inexperienced Laser Hair Removal Center

Pitfalls of Using an Inexperienced Laser Hair Removal Center

There are many laser hair removal providers who claim to provide the “best hair removal treatment” in New York City. However, not everyone is transparent in their advertising. We are beginning a new series of articles discussing the pitfalls of using an inexperienced laser hair removal center. Upon further research, it is sometimes discovered that these hair removal laser treatment providers are inexperienced and in some cases, using inferior technology.  Manhattan Laser Centers not only has a staff with extensive experience providing hair removal laser treatment, but we also perform laser hair removal using the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser.  Let’s take a look at some of the downfalls of using an inexperienced laser hair removal center.

Unwanted Skin Changes

When laser hair removal is performed by an inexperienced provider, skin lightening, or darkening can occur.  This can be permanent in some cases.

Burns/Blistering

One of the most serious side effects of having hair removal laser treatment provided by an inexperienced provider is burns and/or blistering on the skin, which is why you should always seek services from an experience laser hair removal center.

Our next article will cover more pitfalls of using an inexperienced laser hair removal center.

Tips to Keep in Mind as You Prep for Your First Hair Removal Laser Treatment

Hair Removal Laser Treatment

We are continuing our series on preparing for your first hair removal laser treatment. Our previous article discussed the importance of shaving the areas being treated beforehand and refraining from being out in the sun a few days before laser hair removal is to be performed.  Today, we will provide a few more tips to help you prepare for your first hair removal laser treatment.

Ask Before Taking Medications

Some medications, especially those such as antibiotics which are photosensitive, can cause skin to become irritated after hair removal laser treatment.  If you plan to take any medications prior to laser hair removal, we advise that you check with us before doing so.  We also recommend staying away from certain topicals such as those that contain retinoid and alpha hydroxyl a few days prior to hair removal laser treatment.

Stock Up on Moisturizers and Lotions

You should apply plenty of moisturizers and lotions after hair removal laser treatment.  This will help keep your skin from drying out and also soothe the areas treated.

If you are seeking to find a professional laser hair removal center for permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is the place for you. Our qualified team of laser hair removal professionals pride themselves on providing the best hair removal treatment services in New York City and surrounding areas. Whether you want to treat a single small area (i.e., chin, underarms, etc.) or a large area (i.e., full legs laser, full body hair removal, etc.) we can help.  Give Manhattan Laser Centers a call today!

Prepping For Your First Laser Hair Removal Service

We have been answering some of the most commonly asked questions regarding laser hair removal treatment. It is important to note that our series of articles relate to the laser hair removal services provided by Manhattan Laser Centers.  Not every laser hair removal center has comparable experience and/or technology, which is why we are considered among the best hair removal treatment centers in the nation.

Let’s answer more of your questions about laser hair removal.

Shave Before You Come

We ask that you shave the areas we are treating before you come. This will help us achieve maximum results.  We use the FDA cleared CANDELA laser which is very effective in laser hair removal.  Shaving beforehand allows the laser to target the hair follicles more easily. While we encourage you to shave before hair removal laser treatment, we ask that you please do not use any waxing products.

No Sunburns or Tans!

We do ask that you refrain from being out in the direct sunlight for a few days before your laser hair removal treatment.  Sunburned and/or tanned skin can make laser hair removal more difficult.  Additionally, when laser hair removal treatment is performed on sunburned or tanned skin, you run the risk of irritation.

Our next article will be the final article in our series that answers questions about laser hair removal.

When it comes to the best hair removal treatment and permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is one of the preferred providers in the nation.  Our affordable hair removal laser treatment can be performed on a single small area (i.e. chin) or large area (i.e. full legs laser).  We even perform full body hair removal.

Medical Spa vs. Laser Hair Removal Center

Medical Spa vs. Laser Hair Removal Center

We are often asked about the differences between using a medical spa vs. a laser hair removal center for permanent hair removal.  Manhattan Laser Centers is a laser hair removal center dedicated to providing our clients the best hair removal treatment in Manhattan and surrounding areas.  Why choose a laser hair removal center over a medical spa?  Here are our thoughts:

Medical Spa

A medical spa offers numerous types of treatments such as facials, CoolSculpting, microneedling, BOTOX®, derma fillers and more in addition to laser hair removal.  The staff at a medical spa may not specialize specifically in laser hair removal and instead perform many different types of treatments on clients. Medical spas often use inferior hair removal laser treatment methods such as intense puled light (IPL).

Laser Hair Removal Center

A laser hair removal center performs only hair removal laser treatment.  This can be advantageous because the team of professionals at a laser hair removal center concentrate on only one specialty. A laser hair removal center also is more likely to invest in the best staff and equipment to perform permanent hair removal.  Manhattan Laser Centers, for instance, employs only highly qualified professionals and has made a capital investment in the FDA cleared Candela medical laser. Additionally, a laser hair removal center is often better equipped than a med spa to address large body areas (i.e. full legs laser, full body hair removal, etc.)

If you are looking for the best hair removal treatment in Manhattan, look no further. Manhattan Laser Centers offers full body hair removal and laser hair removal for specific areas including arms, face, chest, bikini, full legs laser, etc.  Give us a call to learn more today!
