Unwanted hair feels so unpleasant and tends to make us feel self-conscious. While shaving seems like an obvious solution, those of us with sensitive skin may feel reluctant to shave due to razor burn and the irritation caused by waxing. Ouch! In our opinion, having clean, hairless skin shouldn’t come as a compromise to personal comfort. At Marlowe MD, we’re dedicated to making you feel beautiful without discomfort. Our awesome hair removal system, the ICON light-based laser, is made to provide fast hair removal results and long-lasting smoothness without the irritation of traditional razors and wax.
ICON Laser Hair Removal
When it comes to unwanted hair removal, we’re happy to offer the ICON laser system to our beautiful clientele. The ICON is a powerful light-based laser that targets and destroys hair growth follicles responsible for hair growth. Designed to accommodate a range of skin and hair types, the laser can remove hair from almost anywhere on the body without harming the surrounding skin. Treatment areas include the face, back, chest, arms, underarms, bikini area, and legs. The permanent hair reduction offered by ICON is a lasting solution that takes away the everyday hassle of dealing with unwanted facial and body hair.
Laser Hair Removal Treatment Procedure
Before your laser treatment, it is very important that you avoid sun exposure in the two weeks prior to your appointment.
The ICON hair removal procedure will involve a handheld device with a smooth glass surface being directed along the treatment area. The laser targets individual hair follicles, delivering heat that prevents new hair growth along the area. While heat from the ICON targets your individual hair follicles, the system simultaneously employs cooling energy, protecting surrounding tissues around the area. This dual-action will keep you comfortable for the duration of treatment.
Depending on the size of your treatment site, the hair removal procedure may take anywhere between 15-30 minutes. After your treatment is complete, a cold compress will be applied to your skin for several minutes to cool it down.
Results of ICON Hair Removal Treatment
After your ICON hair removal session, you may see some initial results right away. However, it typically takes at least three treatments to achieve maximum results.
One of the biggest features of the ICON hair removal system is the fact that it’s so powerful it results in the need for fewer treatments than other lasers. After your three treatment sessions, you can expect a roughly 79% reduction in hair growth at the treatment site. This treatment will drastically reduce the amount of time and money you spend on shaving and waxing!
The ICON may even improve the overall appearance of your skin, giving you a fresh, rejuvenated glow!
