Choosing the best hair removal method can be confusing.  Some say that laser hair removal is the best method while others say that electrolysis is the only permanent method. But what is the most effective method for your specific needs?   While both electrolysis and laser hair removal are extremely effective, the color and texture of the hair growth as well as the intensity of pigment in the skin will have to be evaluated before moving forward.  Let’s take a look at some of the guidelines when choosing the best method for your needs.

For most people, laser hair removal is the “go to” method when choosing permanent hair removal. It’s extremely effective with incredible results being seen with just one treatment.  It’s also extremely fast.  A man’s back can be completed in 15 minutes, underarm’s in about 2 minutes, an upper lip in under a minute and the entire legs on most women in less than 30 minutes. Even though it is the most requested service, it’s not always the best option for some people.  For optimum results, several factors have to be evaluated before moving forward with laser hair removal.  The ..read more

When it comes to hair removal, each and every client is an individual with specific needs.  What body area will you be treating?  What is the color and texture of the hair growth and what is your skin tone?  Is the hair growth a result of hormonal imbalance, puberty, pregnancy, menopause, or a result of your ethnicity or medication?  How large is the area that will be treated and does the hair growth cover the entire area.  And finally, are you interested in removing 100% of the hair growth or are you comfortable if a small percentage of fine hair growth remains?  ..read more

No one wants to spend unnecessary money for their laser hair removal.  But buying a package can frequently result in just that – spending unnecessary money.  No one can tell you exactly how many treatments you will need.  So why put out a lot of money up front?  What is most important is getting an honest evaluation for your particular needs and then paying only for the treatments if and when you need them.  No strings attached and no up-front money!   Although most laser hair removal practices require you to purchase an expensive package before starting with ..read more

The beginning of an ingrown hair. One of the most common reasons most clients reach out to us, is that they have been struggling with the annoyance of ingrown hairs. Ingrown hairs can appear on any part of the body.  They can become painful, infected and can even cause irreversible darkening of the skin (hyperpigmentation).  Most resort to removing the hair growth with temporary methods such as waxing, tweezing, threading and shaving.  As a result, these hairs can eventually become distorted, ultimately being trapped under the skin making matters even worse.  Once trapped ..read more

A woman applying baby oil on her right shoulder with her left hand. Over the years, I have tried dozens of moisturizers which claim to be the “best anti-aging”, “most advanced”, “deep crease serum”, “glow tonic”, and on and on. Most of these claims also come with a pretty big price tag. Somehow we all seem to believe that if something is more expensive, then it must be better.   I have found that one of the best and most inexpensive moisturizers is already in most of our medicine cabinets!  Baby Oil is one of those products that most would never think of using on a daily basis.&nbs ..read more

Within the last few weeks, I have had several new clients come into my office requesting electrolysis on their underarms and bikini area.  After evaluating each of these clients specific area’s, it became clear that due to the color, texture and amount of hair growth present, laser hair removal would have been the quickest and most effective option for them.  After recommending laser hair removal to them, each one immediately said; “electrolysis is permanent and laser is not“.  And when I asked them why they thought electrolysis was the better option, they all responded that the ..read more
