Laser Hair Removal: Myths vs. Facts

At Athens Laser Hair Removal, we understand that many myths surround the laser hair removal process. We're here to set the record straight with expert facts that clarify common misconceptions. Read on to learn more!

My Awesome Headline

Myth 1: Laser Hair Removal is Painful

Claim: "Laser hair removal is very painful and causes discomfort."

Fact: While some patients may feel a slight sensation similar to a rubber band snap, laser hair removal is generally well-tolerated. At Athens Laser Hair Removal, we use the Cynosure Apogee Elite system, which combines two optimal wavelengths for effective treatment with minimal discomfort. Most patients experience only mild redness after the treatment.

Myth 2: Laser Hair Removal is Permanent After One Session

Claim: "Laser hair removal permanently removes all hair in just one session."

Fact: Laser hair removal works by targeting hair follicles during their growth phase, but hair grows in cycles. Multiple treatments are needed (usually 6-8 sessions) for long-lasting results. We recommend spaced treatments to achieve smooth, hair-free skin, as explained in our services page.

Myth 3: Laser Hair Removal Only Works on Light Skin

Claim: "Laser hair removal is only effective on individuals with light skin tones."

Fact: Modern laser technology, like the Nd laser used at Athens Laser Hair Removal, is effective on all skin tones. Our Alexandrite laser also works well for lighter skin types. We tailor our treatments to each client’s skin and hair type for optimal results, ensuring safety and effectiveness across various skin tones.

Myth 4: Laser Hair Removal is Unsafe

Claim: "Laser hair removal can damage the skin and is unsafe."

Fact: Laser hair removal is FDA-approved and has been extensively tested for safety. At Athens Laser Hair Removal, we prioritize the safety and well-being of our clients by using advanced, clinically tested equipment like the Cynosure Apogee Elite. All procedures are performed by certified laser technicians to ensure the highest standards of safety.
