"I highly recommend La Nouvelle Medical Spa for laser hair removal. My experience with laser hair removal went smoothly. After the treatment, I have several follow ups to make sure that my results were great and they are amazing."
Cherry Bonner

"I've been getting my laser hair removal here and I absolutely love my results I would definitely recommend my friends and family here I love it!! "
Christina Amezcua

"After having two healthy boys close together I experienced hormonal imbalances causing a lot of facial hair growth. I purchased the laser hair removal package from La Nouvelle Med Spa. I was afraid it would be extremely painful. Then my sister Duszka told me "Lucy, you have had two kids." The environment was very calming, the music was very helpful. I can honestly say icing for me was the most painful. Once completing my 5 sessions I can confirm that 95% of my hair is gone, the remaining is hardly visible."
Luz Mukira Ponce

How many treatments will I need?

Most areas require 3-6 treatments of laser hair removal treatments. However, the number of Laser Hair Removal treatments required for optimal benefits depends on multiple factors – hair thickness, the area treated and your hair's growth cycle. Interestingly, not all hairs are actively growing at the same time and actually go through three distinct phases: growth, regression, and resting. Laser Hair Removal treatments work by disabling the hair that is principally in the active growth phase at the time of treatment. Since other hairs will enter this active growth phase at different times, additional treatments may be necessary to disable all of the hair follicles in a given area.

Normally, 8 weeks to 10-12 weeks are required between treatments depending on the body area being treated. This time is necessary to allow enough hair follicles that were dormant during the last treatment to reach the active growth phase. When enough remaining hair follicles have reached the active growth phase, the next treatment can be performed. Gradually, after enough treatments, there will be virtually no hair follicles left in the treated area that are able to grow hair. Usually, a minimum of 5 treatments over the course of 6 - 15 months are needed for satisfactory, lasting results.

What do Laser Hair Removal treatments feel like?

A laser handpiece cools and soothes as it glides along your skin. When the pulse of light is delivered, some patients experience a mild pinching or stinging sensation. No local anesthesia or pain medication is typically required; however, some patients may prefer to use a topical anesthetic when sensitive areas are treated. To minimize any discomfort, we use ice and together with the very cold laser it is a breeze! A breeze and very effective!

What happens after the treatment?

Immediately following your Laser Hair Removal treatment, the area may appear a bit red and swollen. Three to seven days after treatment you may experience what seems to be regrowth of hair. Actually, most of these hairs are being shed as a result of your treatment and are not regrowing. Between treatments you should not wax or pluck your hair, but it is permissible to shave.

Are there any restrictions on my activity after treatment?

Following the treatment, you can return to your normal activities right away. The use of sunscreen is recommended on any treated areas exposed to the sun. In addition, Dr. Hanna may recommend that you use a specially formulated skin care product line or prescribe a skin care regimen especially formulated for your skin type.

How does the Laser Hair Removal compare with other hair removal methods?

Shaving, waxing, and depilatory creams are all temporary methods which must be repeated on a frequent basis. The Laser Hair Removal offers hair reduction for lasting results.

How does the CoolGlide compare with electrolysis?

Electrolysis is a tedious, invasive, and painful process that involves inserting a needle into each individual hair follicle and delivering an electrical charge to them one at a time. Electrolysis often requires years of treatments at regular intervals. By delivering light energy to hundreds of hair follicles at a time, Laser Hair Removal effectively treats an area in just seconds that would take over an hour with electrolysis.

Why choose Laser Hair Removal with CoolGlide over other laser hair removal systems?

Using the latest technology in laser hair removal, our Laser, the CoolGlide, can rapidly treat large areas without the limitations of older technologies. The CoolGlide longer wavelength allows it to be used safely and effectively on patients with light or dark skin as well as tanned skin. Unlike other systems, the CoolGlide can treat the fine hair on a woman's upper lip just as easily and effectively as the coarse hair on a man's back. The cooled handpiece increases patient comfort and minimizes the adverse skin reaction commonly seen with other lasers.
