What is the best way to remove unwanted hair?
Unwanted hair can be a nuisance. Whether it’s on the upper lip, chin, underarms,
back, legs or any other location, why not use the best technology to remove
the hair long-term? Using the latest hair removal techniques and equipment,
Dermatology Consultants of Frisco can make this dream a reality.
Does it hurt?
Discomfort is mild. In fact, many of our patients don’t require
numbing creams to be applied prior to treatment, which is a testament
to the advanced equipment and techniques used and is a claim many of
our competitors cannot make.
How does it work?
Hair removal using laser or IPL works by targeting melanin (pigment)
in the hair follicle and surrounding structures. Hair removal is most
efficient in darker hair on lighter skin individuals, but we can treat
darker skin individuals as well. However, don’t be fooled by advertising
that you may see, white or gray hairs cannot be treated effectively
at this time.
How many treatments are required?
Typically, 3-6 treatments will be recommended because hairs have
different cycles of growth and each hair must be caught in the right
cycle to be removed effectively. The time frame between each treatment
will vary based on location and will be reviewed with you during your
consultation.
Why should I get my treatments from Dr. Weisberg?
Although the treatments
are generally considered safe, powerful lasers and IPL devices are not
toys and significant side effects can be more likely to occur in untrained
operators.
It is important to know the qualifications and Board Certification of your physician prior to your treatment. Please research the Board Certification of your laser provider by visiting the Texas Medical Board website at www.tmb.state.tx.us/
Dr. Weisberg is a board-certified dermatologist with many years of formal University based training in cosmetic treatments including the usage of lasers. Training of operators at other businesses may vary widely from a few hours of non-formal, non-University based training to a few weeks.
Know who is treating you. Buyer beware!
