Unwanted Hair
Unwanted Hair Treatments in Chicago, IL
Shaving, waxing, and threading are temporary solutions to a concern that does not have to be temporary. Unwanted hair on the face or body is one of the most addressable aesthetic concerns available today, with laser hair reduction offering lasting results that free patients from the cycle of constant upkeep.
At Therahaus Wellness Medspa in South Loop, Chicago, our laser hair reduction treatments are safe, effective, and suitable for virtually any area of the body. Our providers customize every treatment to your skin tone, hair type, and target area to ensure the best possible results with each session.
Unwanted Hair Treatments at Therahaus
We offer laser hair reduction for long-term reduction of unwanted hair on the face, underarms, legs, bikini area, back, chest, and virtually any other area of the body. Our laser technology targets the melanin in the hair follicle to permanently reduce regrowth over a series of sessions. Most patients achieve significant, lasting reduction within six to eight treatments, freeing them from the time, cost, and frustration of ongoing hair removal.
Any Questions?
Laser hair removal can be safely performed on a range of skin tones using the appropriate laser technology and settings, though results are most predictable in patients with a contrast between their hair color and skin tone. Your provider will assess your skin tone and hair characteristics during a consultation to confirm the right approach for your individual situation.
Laser hair reduction for unwanted hair can be performed on virtually any area of the face or body including the legs, underarms, bikini area, back, chest, face, arms, and more. Your provider will customize the laser settings for each treatment area based on your skin tone and hair characteristics.
Laser hair reduction targets the melanin pigment in the hair follicle with concentrated light energy that converts to heat, damaging the follicle and inhibiting its ability to produce new hair. Because only follicles in the active growth phase can be effectively treated, a series of sessions is needed to address all follicles as they cycle through this phase.
Laser hair reduction delivers permanent reduction of the treated follicles, with most patients achieving 80 to 90 percent reduction in hair growth after completing their full treatment series. Any remaining or regrown hair is typically much finer and lighter than the original unwanted hair.
Laser hair removal is the most effective and long-lasting treatment for unwanted hair, using concentrated light energy to target and permanently reduce hair follicles across virtually any area of the face or body. Most patients achieve significant, lasting hair reduction after completing a series of six to eight sessions at our South Loop medspa.
You should shave the area to be treated the day before your appointment and avoid waxing, threading, or plucking for at least four weeks prior. Avoiding sun exposure and self-tanning products on the treatment area for two weeks before and after each session helps ensure safe and effective results.
