LASER HAIR REMOVAL

How Does Xeo Laser Hair Removal Work?
​
Unwanted body or facial hair can be a real drag – but it doesn’t have to be. The Skin Firm offers effective laser hair removal for the Kingwood community.
After completing your complimentary consultation, our specialists can help determine if your skin is suitable for our laser hair removal treatments. Luckily, we use XEO by Cutera for our hair removal treatments, which is one of the safest and most effective devices out there.
Laser hair removal is a revolutionary cosmetic procedure that offers a permanent solution to unwanted hair, leaving clients with smooth, hair-free skin and newfound confidence.
This type of treatment can serve many purposes and can be used on most skin types and areas of the body. The treatment does vary in its effectiveness depending on the natural growth rate and structure of the client’s hair.
During the treatment, the lasers and lights work to remove hair by destroying the hair follicles that reside beneath the skin. This treatment tends to be highly effective because of the elimination of deep hair roots that promote regrowth naturally.

How to prepare for your laser hair removal appointment?​
​
-
Consultation: Schedule a consultation at The Skin Firm to discuss your treatment goals, medical history, skin type, and any concerns you may have. During the consultation, we will assess whether you are a suitable candidate for laser hair removal and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
-
Avoid Sun Exposure: It's essential to avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least two weeks before your laser hair removal treatment. Sun exposure can increase the risk of skin damage and complications during the procedure, so be sure to protect your skin by wearing sunscreen and covering up when outdoors.
-
Shave the Treatment Area: The day before your laser hair removal session, shave the treatment area using a clean, sharp razor. Shaving removes the hair above the skin's surface, allowing the laser energy to target the hair follicles beneath the skin more effectively. Avoid waxing, plucking, or using depilatory creams before laser hair removal, as these methods remove the hair follicles and may interfere with the treatment.
-
Avoid Certain Skincare Products: Refrain from using skincare products that contain exfoliating ingredients, retinoids, or alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) for at least one week before your laser hair removal treatment. These products can increase skin sensitivity and irritation, making the treatment more uncomfortable.
-
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your laser hair removal session to keep your skin hydrated and in optimal condition. Hydrated skin is more resilient and less prone to irritation or adverse reactions during the treatment.
-
Avoid Certain Medications: Inform your skincare professional or laser technician about any medications you are taking, as some medications can increase skin sensitivity to laser treatments. They may advise you to avoid certain medications, such as photosensitizing drugs or antibiotics, before your laser hair removal session.
-
Remove Makeup and Skincare Products: On the day of your laser hair removal treatment, remove any makeup, lotions, oils, or skincare products from the treatment area. Clean, bare skin allows the laser energy to penetrate the hair follicles more effectively, ensuring optimal results.
-
Arrive Prepared: Arrive for your laser hair removal appointment with clean, dry skin and wearing loose, comfortable clothing. This will ensure a smooth and hassle-free treatment experience and allow you to relax and focus on achieving your desired results.
By following these preparation tips, you can ensure that your laser hair removal treatment is safe, effective, and comfortable, helping you achieve smooth, hair-free skin with confidence.
