What is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal relies on powerful thermal energy to destroy hair follicles, halting hair growth in the desired areas. The pigment in the follicle absorbs the heat, making laser hair removal ideal for those with a good amount of contrast between darker and lighter skin. The treatment is appropriate for all genders and effectively eradicates unwanted hair in the face, chest, back, arms, legs, and bikini zone. Because the hair grows in cycles, achieving your unique hair removal goals can take several sessions.

Which laser hair removal devices does Setty Plastics & Aesthetics Med Spa use?

Candela GMax Pro (GentleMax Pro Series)

This dual-wavelength laser combines the 755 nm Alexandrite and 1064 nm Nd: YAG lasers, allowing safe and effective treatment for various skin types. It uses a Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) to deliver bursts of cryogen before and after each pulse, enhancing comfort and protecting the skin.

The GMax Pro can treat large areas quickly and efficiently with adjustable spot sizes and high repetition rates. It's a versatile device for addressing pigmentation, vascular lesions, and skin tightening.

Sciton Forever BARE BBL System

The Forever BARE BBL system uses advanced broadband light with “in-motion” technology, emitting rapid, low-fluence pulses to uniformly heat hair follicles. This approach minimizes missed spots and reduces discomfort.

It features a large spot size for fast treatment sessions and sapphire-tip cooling to maintain skin comfort throughout. The system is suitable for most skin tones and is known for leaving the skin smoother and more even in tone over the course of multiple sessions.

What happens during a laser hair removal session?

Getting laser hair removal in Plano and Allen,TX, at the Setty Plastics & Aesthetics med spa follows these simple steps:

Consultation

As a first step, you will meet with our skilled aesthetic experts for a private consultation, during which we will determine if laser hair removal will meet your goals.

Preparation 

On the day of your session, your skin is first cleansed of oil, dirt, makeup, and debris to ensure the laser heat fully penetrates the hair follicles. 

Treatment 

Next, a handheld laser device passes over the targeted hair follicles, emitting powerful light energy to destroy the hair roots. 

Recovery 

Finally, you will be released to immediately resume your normal activities. Our practitioners will provide personalized aftercare instructions to help you manage any post-treatment redness or soreness. For 24-48 hours after your appointment, it is wise to avoid strenuous exercise and exposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays.

Laser Hair Removal FAQs

Can Laser Hair Removal Treat Ingrown Hairs or Folliculitis?

Is Laser Hair Removal Effective on Hormonal Hair Growth (e.g., PCOS)?

What’s the Best Time of Year to Start Laser Hair Removal?

Can Laser Hair Removal Be Done on Tattoos or Over Moles?

Is Laser Hair Removal Safe for Darker Skin Tones?

Can Laser Hair Removal Treat Ingrown Hairs or Folliculitis?

Yes. Laser hair removal is often recommended for people who suffer from chronic ingrown hairs or folliculitis. By targeting and reducing hair growth at the root, it can significantly decrease inflammation and break the cycle of irritation caused by shaving or waxing.

Is Laser Hair Removal Effective on Hormonal Hair Growth (e.g., PCOS)?

Laser hair removal can reduce the density and thickness of hair caused by hormonal imbalances like PCOS. However, because hormonal fluctuations can trigger regrowth, maintenance sessions are usually required more frequently than average.

What’s the Best Time of Year to Start Laser Hair Removal?

Fall and winter are ideal, as sun exposure should be minimized before and after treatment. Tanned or sunburned skin increases the risk of pigmentation issues, so starting in cooler months helps ensure safer and more effective results.

Can Laser Hair Removal Be Done on Tattoos or Over Moles?

No, lasers should not be used directly on tattooed skin or dark moles. The pigment in tattoos and moles absorbs laser energy, which can lead to burns or discoloration. Treatments can be performed around these areas, but not directly over them.

Is Laser Hair Removal Safe for Darker Skin Tones?

Yes—with the right technology. Devices like Nd:YAG lasers are specifically designed to safely and effectively treat darker skin tones by bypassing melanin in the skin and targeting deeper into the follicle. Always ensure your provider uses equipment suitable for your skin type.
