About Laser Hair Removal

• **Location will be provided at consultation**

The Nordlys system permanently reduces unwanted hair by delivering short, safe bursts of Ellipse IPL™ directed at the target site. To ensure good contact with the skin, a thin layer of gel is applied to the skin prior to treatment.
 

How often should you have a laser hair reduction session?

Typically, you should have a laser hair reduction session every four to eight weeks until you have achieved your ideal results. It is important to wait several weeks between sessions for numerous reasons. First, the laser can only target the extra pigmentation present in active hair follicles. However, only some of the hair follicles in a given area of concern are active at any given time.

Therefore, you need to wait until other hair follicles in the area of concern become active and can be treated. It is also important to wait several weeks between treatment sessions because your skin needs time to heal after treatment.

How many treatment session will I need?

 Most people need roughly six treatment sessions to achieve their ideal results. However, several factors affect how many treatment sessions you will need. For example, your skin tone and hair color affect the efficacy of your treatment. The greater the contrast is between your skin tone and hair color, the more effective each session will be. Also, this treatment tends to be more effective when hair is thick. 

 Our treatments are safe, and all of our procedures are performed by Authorized Candela Practitioners. We use FDA-cleared lasers that are tailored to your specific skin type & hair color. 

HOW LONG DO TREATMENTS TAKE?

Each treatment depends on the specific area being treated. Most treatment range from 5-30 minutes.
