More Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

We are continuing our series of articles highlighting some of the common reasons why both men and women choose to pursue laser hair removal. Our previous article discussed how hair removal laser treatment allows you to be completely free of having to worry about unwanted hair that needs to be shaved or waxed. We also discussed how laser hair removal can be used for hair reduction purposes. Today, we will look at more benefits of choosing hair removal laser treatment.

Improve Self-Esteem

Laser hair removal can help improve the self-esteem of individuals who are either embarrassed about excessive hair or hair growth on certain parts of their bodies.  For instance, many male clients come to us for hair removal laser treatment on their neck, back and buttocks areas.  Females with dark or thick hair on their arms, chin, upper lip, or other areas often seek laser hair removal to address these areas. Hair removal laser treatment can boost self-confidence and improve self-esteem.

Healthy Skin

Laser hair removal not only makes your skin smoother, but it helps promote its health. Shaving and waxing are notorious for causing ingrown hairs, irritation, and infection.  This is not the case with hair removal laser treatment. Once you have achieved permanent hair removal, you never have to worry about the side effects of waxing or shaving again.

Our next article will cover more reasons why so many people choose laser hair removal.

If you want the best laser hair removal, NYC residents and those in surrounding areas need to look no further. When it comes to permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is among the most trusted providers in the business.  We use the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser to perform full body hair removal and facial hair removal with laser.

Common Reasons Men and Women Choose Laser Hair Removal

There are numerous types of hair removal methods. Why do so many people choose laser hair removal?  Our next series of articles will dive deeper into some of the reasons why both men and women are ditching shaving and waxing in favor of hair removal laser treatment.  Let’s get started:

No More Hair Worries

Laser hair removal allows you to be completely free of having to contend with shaving or waxing body hair. Hair removal laser treatment allows you to always be bikini ready!  Men sometimes want facial hair removal with laser to help eliminate the worries of having to deal with a five o’ clock shadow.

Hair Reduction

There are cases where men with much hair or very thick hair on their bodies seek hair removal laser treatment to reduce the amount of hair in certain areas.  Some men are comfortable with having hair on their bodies in general provided that it is not thick or plentiful in certain areas. Those with thick hair on their faces sometimes opt for facial hair removal with laser to reduce the amount of hair.

More Types of Laser Hair Removal Processes

More Types of Laser Hair Removal Processes

We are continuing our series discussing some of the different types of laser hair removal processes. Our previous article covered Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and the Diode laser. Today, we will look at two other technologies that may be used by a laser hair removal center.

Ruby Laser

The Ruby laser is a “classic” in the laser hair removal industry.  It was ideal in its heyday; however, it is rarely used today in favor of newer laser technology options.  The Ruby laser is very limiting because it’s not effective on dark skin or light/grey hair.

Medical Laser

FDA cleared medical lasers are arguably the most effective and painless option for permanent hair removal. Manhattan Laser Centers uses the CANDELA medical laser for every hair removal laser treatment. It is ideal for treating larger areas and is often utilized for full body hair removal and full legs laser. Medical lasers are safe for all skin types, including dark skin tones.

If you are seeking the best hair removal treatment, look no further. Manhattan Laser Centers is a preferred laser hair removal center serving New York City and surrounding areas.  Our friendly, qualified staff, transparent pricing, quality, and state-of-the-art technology set us apart from other hair removal laser treatment providers.  We serve both men and women and are LGBTQ friendly.

Types of Laser Hair Removal Processes

Types of Laser Hair Removal Processes

When you see a laser hair removal center advertised, do you consider the type of laser technology they are using? Each laser hair removal center has its equipment which can widely vary. Our next series of articles is designed to familiarize you with different types of hair removal laser treatment processes.

Intense Pulse Light

Intense Pulse Light (IPL) is utilized by numerous laser hair removal centers. However, IPL does not use true laser technology. It utilizes a broadband light source which, unlike true medical lasers, affects more of the skin surrounding the hair follicle. IPL is also not effective on darker skin tones.

Diode

The Diode laser system is a form of laser hair removal that is capable of a long wavelength. The issue is that Diode hair removal laser treatment works using slower repetitions and tends to be more painful than other types of laser hair removal processes.

Our next article will cover more laser hair removal processes, including medical lasers.

When it comes to permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is considered one of the best because we have invested in the latest technology and hire qualified staff to perform all of our hair removal treatment services.

More Reasons to Choose Laser Hair Removal Over Waxing

More Reasons to Choose Laser Hair Removal Over Waxing

We are continuing our series discussing some reasons why laser hair removal is preferred over waxing.  Our previous articles covered the cost and comfort aspects of hair removal laser treatment. We also explored how laser hair removal is permanent and has fewer side effects than waxing. Today, we will look at more reasons why laser is the best hair removal treatment option.

Laser Works on All Skin Types

One myth that keeps people going back to waxing is that laser hair removal is not effective on all skin types. This is not true. If you are seeking permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is the one to choose because we use the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser, which is effective on all skin types.

Full Body Hair Removal is Not a Problem

Full body hair removal can be successfully accomplished with hair removal laser treatment. Waxing is very painful, and most people would prefer to forego the suffering, especially since waxing does not accomplish permanent hair removal. Manhattan Laser Centers offers full body hair removal, full legs laser, and single body area laser hair removal.

Manhattan Laser Centers offers arguably the best hair removal treatment in New York City and surrounding areas. What makes our laser hair removal center different is our qualified staff, state-of-the-art equipment, transparent pricing policy, and the fact that we treat both men and women.

Advantages of Laser Hair Removal vs. Waxing

Advantages of Laser Hair Removal

We are concluding our series of articles discussing some of the advantages of laser hair removal vs. waxing. Our previous article explored the cost and comfort aspects of hair removal laser treatment. We also discussed how laser hair removal is much less painful than waxing and how waxing requires ¼ inch of hair to be effective.  Today, we will examine two more benefits of laser hair removal.

Permanent

We keep stressing this aspect about hair removal laser treatment because it really is true. Yes, it is permanent!! Waxing is only temporary, and you will need ongoing treatments throughout your lifetime. When laser hair removal is performed using a true medical laser, then you can expect an average of 8-10 sessions to achieve permanent hair removal. Manhattan Laser Centers uses the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser, which is considered the industry gold standard.

Fewer Side Effects

Laser hair removal has little to no side effects, whereas waxing can result in extreme irritation, ingrown hairs, and, at worse, infection of the area treated. Hair removal laser treatment can be safely performed on all skin types, including sensitive skin.

When it comes to permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is considered one of the best hair removal treatment options in New York City and surrounding areas. Whether you want to treat a single area (i.e., chin, sideburns, etc.) or a large area (i.e., full legs laser, full body hair removal) we can help.

Overall Benefits of Hair Removal Laser Treatment

Overall Benefits of Hair Removal Laser Treatment

Our latest series of articles covers the differences between waxing and laser hair removal. We discussed in previous articles what the laser hair removal and waxing processes themselves entailed. We also covered the differences in cost and the comfort aspects of hair removal laser treatment. Today, we will look at more benefits of laser hair removal.

Less Painful

Hair removal laser treatment is not painful. Most people report feeling at most tiny pricks vs. the extreme pain that is often experienced with waxing. This in itself makes laser hair removal much more desirable. Waxing is something that will need to be repeated throughout your lifetime, and many people dread having to go through such a painful process over and over again.

No Ongoing Hair Growth

As we discussed in our previous article, waxing does not achieve permanent hair removal and is a process that will need to be repeated throughout your lifetime. Waxing requires approximately ¼ inch of hair growth to be effective. So, you will need to allow your hair to grow out before you can receive your next waxing treatment. If you want to be hair-free forever, then hair removal laser treatment is the better option for you.

Our next article will cover more advantages of laser hair removal.

Laser Hair Removal vs. Waxing

Laser Hair Removal vs. Waxing

We are continuing our series of articles discussing some of the key differences between waxing and laser hair removal. Our previous article covered what is involved with the waxing and hair removal laser treatment processes themselves. Today, we will take a closer look at various aspects of each.

Cost

While a single waxing treatment may cost less than a single laser hair removal session, you will save money over time with hair removal laser treatment because the end result is permanent. While you will need several hair removal laser treatment sessions to achieve permanent hair removal, once you are done you won’t have to worry about coming back every month for another treatment. Waxing is an effective hair removal method, but it is not permanent.

Comfort

Laser hair removal is an extremely comfortable process. Best of all, any body area – including large body areas (i.e., full legs laser, full body hair removal) – can be safely treated in a matter of minutes.

Our next article will contrast more of the differences between laser hair removal and waxing.

If you want the best hair removal treatment, then look no further. Manhattan Laser Centers is the preferred laser hair removal center in New York City. We treat both men and women and are LGBTQ friendly. Don’t settle for an inferior laser hair removal center that employs inexperienced staff and uses an inferior intense pulsed light process instead of true medical laser technology.

Hair Removal Laser Treatment vs. Waxing

Hair Removal Laser Treatment vs. Waxing

We understand there are many hair removal laser treatment options to consider. Previous articles discussed some of the advantages of choosing laser hair removal over electrolysis. Our next series of articles will contrast hair removal laser treatment and waxing.

Waxing Process

Waxing involves using hot wax to pull hair away from the follicle. An applicator is used to apply the hot wax. Then, fabric is applied in the direction of the hair growth.  Then the fabric is pulled off the skin in the opposite direction. The results are not permanent, lasting only a few weeks.

Laser Hair Removal Process

Hair removal laser treatment involves utilizing a medical laser to target and destroy the hair shaft without damaging the surrounding skin, resulting in permanent hair removal. Manhattan Laser Centers uses the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser for all laser hair removal treatments.

Our next article will discuss more differences between waxing and laser hair removal.

Hair Removal Laser Treatment vs. Electrolysis

Hair Removal Laser Treatment vs. Electrolysis

We are continuing our series of articles discussing the many benefits of laser hair removal vs. electrolysis. Our previous article covered the fact that electrolysis is only effective on certain types of hair, whereas laser hair removal can be used on all types of skin and hair. We also discussed how the laser hair removal process is much faster than electrolysis.  Let’s look at a few more reasons why you should consider hair removal laser treatment instead of electrolysis.

Laser Hair Removal Can Be Performed on the Entire Body

Full legs laser and full body hair removal is very effective when hair removal laser treatment is performed using a true medical laser.  Electrolysis can only be performed on small surface areas. And, as we discussed in our previous article, electrolysis can only be used on hair with smaller follicles.

Electrolysis Has Many Side Effects

Electrolysis has not only been described as painful, but many different side effects have been reported including swelling, ingrown hairs, dry skin, scabbing, redness, and even scarring. Laser hair removal does not have any harmful side effects and is not a painful process.

When it comes to permanent hair removal, Manhattan residents know that Manhattan Laser Centers offers the best hair removal treatment options, especially when compared to other providers in New York City and surrounding areas. Don’t trust just any laser hair removal center.  We are experienced and can treat a single area, multiple areas, and even offer full body hair removal.
