Full Body Laser Hair Removal Chicago
Let V&P Laser Hair Removal & Skin Care laser away your unwanted body hair leaving you with smooth, beautiful skin. All areas of the body can be treated. During hair removal, the laser’s handpiece is placed against the skin and directs the laser’s energy at the hair follicle. The hair follicle absorbs the energy, eventually causing it to fall out. Hairs in their active growth phase are most sensitive to laser energy and the most likely to be successfully removed with each treatment. On average, about 20% of our hair follicles are in the growth phase at any given time. Therefore, most people need about 6-10 sessions for full results. Sessions are repeated every 4-12 weeks, depending on the area of the body. Laser hair removal is considered a permanent reduction, although many people eventually have some regrowth and will need touch-up sessions every 1-2 years.

How to prepare for laser hair removal
The only preparation needed is to shave thoroughly before the treatment. The laser is targeting the pigment in the hair. The energy of the laser needs to travel down the hair into the follicle to kill the stem cells. The laser can “see” the bit of hair right at the pore. Any extra hair sticking out of the skin will be burned off by the laser, and only contributes to burning hair smell. It does not help the treatment at all. Most people shave the night before or the morning of the treatment.
Certain topical skin treatments need to be stopped before Laser Hair removal, like retinols. If you are treating any area of the face or neck, these should be stopped 5-7 days before treatment.
What to expect after treatment
A good treatment will result in a bit of redness and swelling around the follicles. This may last minutes to hours. The hairs treated will come out of the skin over the next few days. This will appear like the hair is growing however, this is merely the skin expelling the dead hair. This hair will then fall out on its own in a few days. The treatment itself is not particularly painful– the best lasers have cooling that make the treatment very tolerable. If you are treating a very sensitive area it may be a bit hot and prickly. There is no pain at all following the treatment.
