Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by Dr. Bijan Farah, is a state of the art facility providing a range of anti-aging and aesthetic treatments, including laser hair removal. Patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, CA, and nearby locations have an opportunity to receive high quality treatments at the med spa in a safe and personalized environment.

Effective Solution

Undesirable hair growth can occur in several exposed or unexposed parts of the body, including the face, arms, legs, bikini area and the back. This can happen due to various reasons such as genetics, hormonal imbalance, or certain types of drugs. Traditional hair treatment approaches such as waxing, shaving or tweezing can offer temporary relief, but many women find these solutions painful and uncomfortable. Laser hair removal, on the other hand, is much more effective and long-term solution. Good candidates for this procedure are individuals with darker hair and light skin pigmentation. The pigmentation will absorb the sharp and intense laser beam in a precise way so that no harm is caused to the healthy surrounding tissue. Experts at Rejuvenate Medical Spa provide laser-based anti-aging as well as hair removal treatments to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, CA, and surrounding communities.

Laser Technology

Rejuvenate med spa is equipped with the Asclepion Mediostar Next laser technology. This is among the latest and most innovative laser hair removal machines that are available today. The technology is based on the “Gentle Gliding” principle and allows for “Pre-Cooling” of the skin. This ensures that the patient receives treatment with the least possible discomfort, and achieves long lasting outcomes.

Treatment Procedure

Laser hair removal procedure involves targeting of the melanin, which is the pigment present in the hair follicles. The laser light gets absorbed by the melanin, which causes disintegration of the follicle, and also stops future growth of hair. However, it will destroy only the hair in the current cycle of growth, because hair will typically grow in cycles. Therefore, four to eight treatments may be necessary to target and eliminate all the undesirable hair follicles during the various cycles of growth. Treatment sessions can be spaced four to six weeks apart in order to capture the targeted hair during their active growth phase. The entire procedure is largely painless, but the treatment expert may apply a topical anesthetic cream to keep the patient more comfortable during the treatment. The number of treatments for each patient may vary depending on their aesthetic goals, the condition of the hair and the hair growth pattern.

Recovery

Laser hair removal procedure does not involve any risk of side effects that is typically associated with cosmetic surgery treatments. There is no downtime with the treatment, and the patient is ready to resume their regular activities immediately. If temporary redness occurs in the treated areas, it will disappear on its own within a few days.
