Why Choosing Laser Hair Removal Makes Sense
Shaving, tweezing, waxing, creams—you’ve probably tried them all. And while they might do the job for a day or two, the hair always comes back, bringing irritation and hassle along with it.
Pulling hair out by the root isn’t exactly fun, razors can leave you red and bumpy, and creams can be a gamble for sensitive skin. Laser hair removal with Icon offers a smarter alternative. It’s quick, long-lasting, and handled with expert precision by the team at Coastal Dermatology & Medspa. No more endless cycles of stubble and sting, just smoother skin and less upkeep.
The Benefits of Laser Hair Removal at Coastal Derm
Most patients report that laser hair removal is more comfortable than waxing or shaving, and we’re here to explain all the benefits in detail. Some of the best aspects include:
What Happens During A Laser Hair Removal Treatment?
Before your appointment, your provider will ask you to trim the hair in the treatment area down to just a couple of millimeters. This helps the laser reach the follicle more effectively without wasting energy on surface strands. Laser hair removal works best on darker hair, so treatment is most effective when the hair is pigmented.
When you arrive, we’ll tailor the laser settings based on your skin tone, hair color and texture, and the area being treated. A cooling gel or specialized device is applied to keep your skin comfortable while guiding the laser to the right depth.
The laser is then pulsed across the treatment area, with your practitioner checking in as they go to make sure everything’s responding just right. Smaller spots, like the upper lip, can be done in minutes. Larger areas, like the legs, usually take about an hour.
After your session, we’ll apply a soothing topical to calm the skin. For the next couple of days, the area might feel like a light sunburn. After a series of three to seven treatments, most people see long-lasting, often permanent results, and a whole lot less hassle in their routine. However, because hair can grow in cycles, occasional touch-up treatments may be needed over time to maintain the best results.
Jacksonville’s Top Questions About Laser Hair Removal
We prioritize your comfort during laser hair removal treatments, striving to provide a positive experience. Many patients report that the sensation feels similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin, typically rating the discomfort between a 3 and 5 out of 10. This brief and localized sensation is often found to be more tolerable than traditional methods such as waxing or epilating, and we are here to help you manage any discomfort you may experience.
Laser hair removal doesn’t promise absolute permanence, but it provides significant and long-lasting reductions in hair growth. Many clients notice that treated hair becomes finer, lighter, and less noticeable, leading to smoother skin for extended periods. In fact, numerous patients enjoy months or even years of hair-free skin after completing their treatments.
Most clients require 6 to 8 sessions to achieve optimal results with laser hair removal. These treatments are scheduled several weeks apart to effectively target hair during its various growth stages. Our experienced team will create a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific hair and skin type for the best possible outcomes.
