Laser Hair Removal in Memphis

Laser hair removal is safe if you go to a qualified provider. It would be best if you got an in-depth consultation with a trained laser professional to ensure you are a good candidate. A good provider will have the proper equipment and professional care to ensure your safety.

Laser hair removal is for individuals who want to permanently reduce unwanted hair on their face or body through laser treatments because they’re tired of the conventional methods that only yield temporary results.

For safety reasons, you may not be able to get laser hair removal in Memphis from A Beautiful You Medical Spa if you have/have had:

• Previous problems with or reactions to laser therapy
• A history of keloid scarring
• Any active infections or history of herpes simplex in the treatment area
• Use of other hair removal treatments other than shaving (such as waxing, plucking, or electrolysis) within 6 weeks prior to treatment
• Hypersensitivity to hydroquinone or other bleaching agents
• Use of oral Accutane within 6 weeks prior to treatment

Great question! Not all laser hair removal devices were created equal. Luckily, the Venus Velocity™ hair removal treatment offers us specific settings to use on darker skin tones, including tanned skin.

For your safety and benefit, we may determine we want to perform a test spot to assess your unique skin’s reaction to the laser. You can expect to wait anywhere from 15 minutes to 48 hours (depending on your skin tone) to make sure we can proceed.

Experience what it’s like to have smooth and hair-free parts of your body, with no effort or time spent shaving 🙌

Laser hair removal in Memphis harnesses the power of laser energy to keep unwanted hair from ever growing back. We safely guide a laser over the area into the hair follicles, which heats and destroys them for good. No more shaving or waxing!

How permanent laser hair removal is for you depends on your hair’s density, growth cycle, and other factors. Most people may need a yearly touch-up session to make their results permanent. Any hair regrowth after laser hair removal is usually less dense, finer, and lighter in color.

Unlike some laser hair removal services in Memphis, A Beautiful You offers the most advanced laser hair removal technology on the market, which can quickly and effectively treat unwanted hair in less time. In the past, treating a medium to large area of the body may have required 12 or even 18 sessions for lasting results. The Venus Velocity™ device can address a similarly sized area in as little as 4-6 sessions! Of course, the exact number will depend on each individual person’s skin type, hair color and texture, and the number of areas being treated.

Generally, we recommend spacing each of your laser hair removal sessions between 4-8 weeks apart to ensure we can address all of the hair follicles in a treatment area in their various stages of growth.

For most people, laser hair removal pain is minimal, especially when compared to other hair removal treatments like waxing. Many describe the feeling as the quick snapping sensation of a rubber band against the skin. Our laser hair removal device also has a built-in real-time cooling system to reduce the amount of heat in and on the skin to help ease discomfort.

Yes! Just make sure to put on SPF first.

After receiving laser hair removal in Memphis from A Beautiful You Medical Spa, we will review with you any recommended post-care instructions before you leave.

In general, the area may feel tender, similar to how a slight sunburn would feel, but this should go away on its own after 1-2 days at the very most. You’re welcome to use a cool compress to relieve any pain or minor swelling.

You may also see some hairs fall out more easily in the days following your treatment—this is perfectly normal. Some may experience what appears to be a rash, which may also be accompanied by some mild itching. This is also totally normal! This redness and itching will subside over a few days. Cool compresses, antibiotic ointment, and staying hydrated can help speed up the healing process.

Keep the area clean (ideally twice a day with a gentle cleanser) and always remember your SPF! Also avoid hot baths, massages, or other treatments or activities that require direct contact with the skin for the first 48 hours after each session.
