When you arrive for your appointment for hair removal in Sandy Springs, we will prepare you to receive our intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment. This device uses high-intensity light focused into a beam, which rapidly heats your individual hairs to destroy them. The heat travels down to the root, damaging the follicle around it just enough to prevent regrowth in the future.
Many patients ask whether these lasers are safe, and the answer is yes! Not only do we take steps to protect your skin from the heat, but the laser itself has specialized targeting technology. By honing in on the pigment in your hair rather than your skin, the beam focuses exclusively on the follicle.
