HOW DOES LUMENIS LIGHTSHEER WORK?

The Lumenis LightSheer is able to stop the growth of unwanted hair long term by targeting the hair follicle. This is achieved by targeting the melanin inside the follicles and heating it up until follicle damage occurs.

Although the Lumenis LightSheer can be used for many hair colors, it is most effective for darker hair, which is more abundant in melanin.

IS LUMENIS LIGHTSHEER SAFE?

Yes, the Lumenis LightSheer is a safe device, especially when the procedure is administered by experienced providers at Dermscapes Medical Spa. Our laser treatment providers undergo rigorous training with all laser devices, including the LightSheer, and take all of the necessary precautions to ensure patient safety during treatment. Further, the LightSheer features a specialized cooling technology, which helps prevent discomfort during treatment.

HOW LONG DO TREATMENT RESULTS LAST?

Once the follicle has been damaged with the laser energy, hair growth will be significantly reduced permanently.  However, it is possible that some touch up treatments may be needed from time to time, to address any hair follicles that may have experienced very long resting stages and were therefore not captured in the original treatment sessions.
