Who is it not for?

While laser hair removal is safe for most individuals, there are a few exceptions. This treatment may not be suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions or those who are pregnant. Additionally, it may not be as effective on individuals with light-colored or gray hair due to the lack of melanin for the laser to target. Our experienced practitioners will conduct a thorough assessment during your consultation to ensure laser hair removal is the right choice for you.

The Icon device is an advanced laser that uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to permanently destroy the hair follicles and hinder their ability to regrow. While the treatment is mostly tolerable, numbing cream is available for the more sensitive areas of the body. Your skin may look like it has a mild sunburn afterward. When you leave our office, you are free to resume all normal activities, but you need to refrain from strenuous activity or lengthy exposure to the sun for a period of 7 days to let the treated areas recover. You should avoid sun exposure 7 days prior to treatment as we cannot use a laser on sensitized or sunburned skin. At home after your session, we recommend soothing creams or cold packs to alleviate any discomfort. A series of treatments is recommended as the laser can only destroy hair in a particular stage of growth, so not all hair follicles will be able to be treated in one session.
