Laser Hair Removal FAQS
What happens during a treatment?
Once you have taken the first step of booking a complimentary consultation, the laser Clinician will assess the area of concern, discuss all the details of the treatment including expectations and pre and post treatment protocols, while addressing any concerns and questions you may have. Prior to treatment, all the surface hair is removed by shaving or trimming to prevent any damage to the skin. The laser emits a near- infrared laser light that is absorbed by the pigment located in the hair follicle. The laser generates heat in the hair shaft, which diffuses to the stem cell and matrix targets to cause desired damage.
What does the treatment feel like?
With each laser pulse applied, you may feel a slight sting or pinch, like snapping of a small rubber band with a bit of heat. Most people tolerate the treatment well and no topical anesthesia is required.
Are there any possible side effects?
Side effects are rare. You may experience some slight redness or mild swelling to the treatment area, which goes away within hours. On rare occasions, some blistering, or small bumps may occur, which typically resolves quickly. The skin to the treatment area can also become darker or lighter following a treatment, but generally return to normal after a few weeks. Limiting sun exposure before and after each treatment will minimize the risk of complications.
Following the treatment you can return to work and resume all regular activities immediately.
How does Laser Hair Removal compare with other methods?
Shaving, tweezing, waxing, electrolysis, depilatory creams are convenient methods to get rid of unwanted hair. They all have their limitations. Either they are very short-term solutions (Ex: shaving) or are painful, unsafe and slow (Ex: electrolysis, tweezing) Lightsheer Diode Laser is non-invasive and unlike electrolysis, no needles are used. Therefore, a safe, effective and virtually painless solution to hair removal permanently.
How does the Laser work to remove hair?
With laser hair removal it is important to know the growth cycles of hair. Hair growth has three stages Anagen (active stage), Catagen (regression) and Telogen (resting). In order to achieve permanent reduction, ideally the hair follicle should be affected by the laser during the Anagen or active stage of hair growth. Since approximately 15-25% of hairs are in the active growing stage at the same time, 4-6 treatments are generally required.
Laser Vein Removal FAQS
Both treatment modalities are effective in treating leg veins. During our free consultation, you will be advised as to which treatment will be best for you.
Is the treatment painful?
There is some discomfort during the treatment, which our staff will address. Our treatment sessions are limited to a maximum of 20 minutes. We will work as quickly as possible to alleviate your leg veins.
Will it be necessary to wear tight stockings after treatment?
No, it is not generally necessary to wear compression stockings after laser treatment. You will be restricted from exercise for the first 48 hours and prohibited from prolonged standing. Will it require more than one treatment?
Yes, it often takes several treatments to eliminate the leg veins. Often a minimum of 3 treatments are required.
Will I see results immediately?
You will initially see bruising from the leg vein vessels breaking down. This bruising usually resolves itself in 4 to 6 weeks.

BBL Photo Rejuvenation FAQS
What is BBL or Broad Band Light?
Broad Band Light (BBL) is a treatment that addresses a variety of benign skin conditions such as photodamage, broken blood vessels, pigmentation and other blemishes. It is a safe, noninvasive treatment that can be tailored to meet your particular needs.
How is the BBL Photorejuvenation treatment performed?
The skin is first cleansed. Your eyes are covered with protective glasses or eye shields, and a thin layer of cold ultrasound gel is applied to the skin. The chilled sapphire crystal tip of the handpiece is placed onto the skin, and the light is pulsed. The chill tip eliminates the need for topical anesthetic. The treatment takes about 20 minutes per treatment area.
Why are multiple treatments necessary?
The BBL treatments are recommended in a series of 4 to 6 sessions, after which you will be given a maintenance schedule to maintain your results depending on the condition of your skin and the severity of your problem. You will be able to resume your normal activities immediately after the treatment. You will see gradual improvement with minimal risk by dividing the treatments into a series.
How do other treatments compare to Photorejuvenation?
While there are many lasers, most will address brown pigmentation or broken capillaries. IPL technology allows both vascular and benign pigmented lesions to be addressed in a single treatment without disrupting your busy lifestyle.
What conditions can BBL Photorejuvenation treat?
BBL technology helps to reverse the sign of aging creating smoother looking skin, it evens out the skin tone and texture. After a series of treatments, you will see reduced unwanted pigmentation and broken capillaries. The same treatment can effectively treat the face, neck, chest, arms and hands.

It can be used to treat the skin on the face, including the eye area and neck. And full body areas.
LED Light Treatment
LED (light-emitting diode) light therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses different wavelengths of light to improve the skin and body:
LED light therapy can treat a variety of skin issues, including acne, sun damage, wrinkles, and scars. Different colors of LED light are thought to have different biological effects on the skin:
- Red light: Treats the epidermis, the outermost layer of skin, and is thought to stimulate collagen production.
- Blue light: Targets the sebaceous glands, which produce oil that can lead to acne. Blue light can also kill acne-causing bacteria.
Green light: It’s known for its calming effects on the skin, helping to lighten hyperpigmentation, reduce redness, and even skin tone.
LED light therapy is often used in combination with other treatments, such as facials, laser and microneedling, to reduce inflammation and recovery time.
