Will it hurt? Is it safe?
Waxing hurts. A lot. Especially on your back. We’ve all been through this. Women's half back laser hair removal on the other hand does not.
No, let us rephrase. Pain is not the right term. A women's half back laser treatment feels like pinching. Or it can also be compared to the feel of rubber band snapping at the skin.
You may feel some heat too.
Laser hair removal does not hurt. It may feel unpleasant. Yet, it is mostly comfortable. The back is not the most sensitive area of the body.
Thus, the treatment will be quite tolerable. Some aloe vera gel will help sooth your skin.
Laser treatments are also very safe. Like any other cosmetic procedures, it has risks. However, those are very rare. You can also easily avoid them.
You just need to follow your technician’s instructions.
How many sessions will I need?
Our half back laser hair removal package includes six sessions.
Each must be six weeks apart. This is because of
the hair growth cycle. Laser treatments only work on hair that is actively growing.
The growth phase of the hair cycle is called anagen. It is the only time the hair and follicle connect. This allows the energy to pass from the former to the latter.
Since 20% of your hair is in the anagen phase, one session can target 20% of hair. Each successive session will treat an additional 20%.
The upper back is a hormonal area. The hair is darker, thicker and coarser. It is harder to remove. Thus, patients are likely to need additional sessions.
How do I prepare for a lower or upper back laser hair removal session?
Half back laser hair removal for women is quite straightforward. It is a fast and convenient way to remove back hair. You can check out our
tips to prepare for your session.
Avoid exposure to direct sun light. Do not use tanning beds and intense UV ray treatments. Indeed, artificial tanning puts the skin into an excited state that can interfere with your treatment.
Some medications can increase sensitivity to the light. This will make the upper lip laser treatment more painful. That is why you need tell your certified laser technician of your medical history before your session.
Clean your skin of lotions, creams, moisturizers, scented fragrances and makeup. Finally, you need to shave the night before or at lest three hours prior to your session.
When can I expect results?
Laser hair removal is a long-term hair growth reduction method. Yet, that does not mean you will not see results early on. Indeed, each session treats 20% of hair.
That is why you can expect a 20% hair growth reduction after each session.
You will start to see your back hair shed a week after your session. By the third session, at least 50% of body hair will be gone. The success of your half back laser hair removal treatment depends on consistency.
This means you must book each session six weeks apart. If you do not follow a strict schedule, you will interfere with the efficacy of the treatment. Therefore results may be delayed.
