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

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.

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

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. Manhattan Laser Centers offers hair removal laser treatment services for both men and women and we are a LGBTQ safe zone. Give us a call or schedule an appointment today!

Laser Hair Removal or Electrolysis?

Electrolysis is a hair removal process that has been used for many years. While it was considered a breakthrough technology for its time, it is now obsolete due to the advanced technology of laser hair removal.  Electrolysis uses an electric current and needles to help block the growth of new hair. This painful process is inferior to hair removal laser treatment, which is much more advanced and has many advantages over electrolysis. Our next series of articles will discuss this in further detail.

Electrolysis is Only Effective on Certain Types of Hair

Electrolysis is very limited because it is only effective on small hair follicles, such as those around the eyes. Laser hair removal using a true medical laser is effective on all types and colors of skin and hair, regardless of the size of the follicle.

Laser Hair Removal is Fast

Hair removal laser treatment averages only a few minutes for each treatment.  Some laser hair removal treatments such as full legs laser and full body hair removal can take longer due to the larger surface area. However, with electrolysis, even smaller treatment areas can take up to 60 minutes to complete.  That is quite a long time, especially since the electrolysis process has been described by many as being extremely painful.

Our next article will cover more advantages laser hair removal has over electrolysis.

If you want the best hair removal treatment, look no further. When it comes to permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is the one to trust. We have the knowledge and experience to perform hair removal laser treatment on both men and women.  Whether you want to treat a single area, desire full legs laser, or are seeking full body hair removal, we can help.

Additional Facts About Hair Removal Laser Treatment

We are continuing our series of articles discussing some facts about hair removal laser treatment. Our previous article covered how laser hair removal is more affordable than you think and the fact that when a laser hair removal center such as Manhattan Laser Centers uses a true medical laser, all types of hair can be treated. Today, we will cover two more facts about laser hair removal.

The Laser Hair Removal Process Is Actually Pleasant

People sometimes are apprehensive about coming to a laser hair removal center because they think that the process will be uncomfortable or painful. If you have participated in other types of hair removal methods such as waxing or electrolysis, these are very painful!  Hair removal laser treatment using a true medical laser does not hurt. At worst, it may feel like tiny little prickles on your skin.  Our hair removal laser treatment rooms are very comfortable and designed to ensure you have a pleasant experience.

Appointments for Hair Removal Laser Treatment Often Last Less Than 30 Minutes

You do not need to worry about taking several hours out of your day for your laser hair removal appointment.  While treatment times vary depending on the area being treated (i.e. full legs laser and full body hair removal will take longer than treating a single are like the chin) in most cases you will be in and out in less than 30 minutes. Manhattan Laser Centers proudly employs the best hair removal treatment technicians who are gentle and efficient at what they do.

Facts to Know About Laser Hair Removal

When it comes to laser hair removal, there are often some fallacies that keep people from pursuing the option for permanent hair removal. Manhattan Laser Centers is different from the typical laser hair removal center and we are dedicating our next series of articles to discussing some of the facts about hair removal laser treatment. Let’s get started:

Hair Removal Laser Treatment is More Affordable Than You Think

One stumbling block some people have about contacting a laser hair removal center is that they think that hair removal laser treatment is going to be very expensive.  While this is the case with some laser hair removal centers, it is not the case with us.  If you are considering permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is not only affordable, but our prices are transparent and there are no hidden costs.

All Types of Hair Can Be Treated

Many people believe that only thinner, dark hair can be treated.  When it comes to permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is one of the few that can treat all types of hair. A typical laser hair removal center will use intense pulsed light (IPL) which is not a true laser. However, we use the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser, which is extremely effective in laser hair removal of all types of hair.

Our next article will cover more facts to know about hair removal laser treatment.

If you are looking for the best hair removal treatment, look no further.  Manhattan Laser Centers is the preferred laser hair removal center serving all of New York City and surrounding areas.  Whether you need a single area treated or a larger area (i.e. full legs laser, full body hair removal) your friends at Manhattan Laser Centers are here for you.

Laser Hair Removal

We are continuing our series on hair removal laser treatment for men.  We have been discussing the top areas men consider for permanent hair removal. Manhattan Laser Centers treats men and can perform laser hair removal on single areas or full body hair removal if desired. Our previous article discussed laser hair removal on the back, chest, and stomach.  Today, we will look at three more areas that are popular for men.

Buttocks

Let’s face it, no one wants hair on their bottom. The buttocks is another area that is popular for laser hair removal for men and can often be performed in 8-10 treatments.

Arms

Hairy arms can cause some men to feel self-conscious. We can perform either full laser hair removal or hair reduction on both the upper and lower arms.

Full Legs Laser

Full legs laser includes the area from the top of the leg to the ankle. Most men prefer complete laser hair removal but we can also perform hair reduction on the legs as well.

Not every laser hair removal center caters to men in the same way we do. This is why when it comes to permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is the choice for men throughout New York City and surrounding areas. Our experienced and dedicated laser hair removal specialists deliver the best hair removal treatment services using the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser.  Whether you want us to treat a single area or perform full body hair removal, we can help.  Give us a call to schedule your appointment today!

Are you a man seeking permanent hair removal?  Manhattan Laser Centers is proud to offer hair removal laser treatment services for men.  We understand some men are self- conscious about their body hair.  Thick body hair or body hair on certain areas may be something you wish to address. Our next series of articles will cover popular laser hair removal areas for men.

Back

Men with hair on their back tend to be self-conscious about going to the beach or doing anything without wearing a shirt. Hair removal laser treatment on the back can help give men confidence to take off their shirts and not worry about being stared at while they are at a waterpark with their families or laying on the beach getting a tan.

Chest

We have worked with many men to either get rid of or reduce their chest hair.  Some men even want laser hair removal to reshape the hair on their chest.

Stomach

We can perform either laser hair removal or reduction on the stomach area.

Hair removal laser treatment on the stomach involves also treating surrounding areas, making sure it looks clean and natural.

If you want the best hair removal treatment for men, look no further. We use the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser which is safe and effective for permanent hair removal.  Manhattan Laser Centers treats many men, whether they want laser hair removal on a single area or full body hair removal. Don’t settle for an inferior laser hair removal center that will leave you dissatisfied.  Your friends at Manhattan Laser Centers have the experience and knowledge to provide safe and effective hair removal laser treatment services.  Give us a call to schedule an appointment today.

Why Does Laser Hair Removal Require Multiple Treatments?

A common myth we often hear is that laser hair removal can be completed with one treatment.  While a single treatment will begin the process, it does take several treatments for permanent hair removal. Manhattan Laser Centers uses the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser, which is extremely effective.  Many laser hair removal centers do not use an actual laser and instead use intense pulsed light (IPL) which is not as effective as medical lasers and does not permanently remove hair.

Medical lasers provide the best hair removal treatment because they zero in on the actual hair follicles and shaft, destroying them without damaging the skin. It generally takes multiple laser hair removal treatments for this to occur. The exact number of hair removal laser treatments required is dependent on several factors including the area(s) being treated and thickness of the hair.

Looking for permanent hair removal? Manhattan Laser Centers is considered the premier laser hair removal center serving Manhattan and surrounding areas. Our experienced team of laser hair removal technicians can treat a single area or a large area including full legs laser and full body hair removal.  Don’t risk your health or safety by using an inexperienced laser hair removal center.
