Laser Hair Removal

Laser Hair Removal is a procedure that works by emitting light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair during Laser Hair Removal. The hair follicles—tube-shaped sacs within the skin—that create hair are damaged when the light energy is transformed into heat. This damage prevents or delays the growth of new hair. Laser Hair Removal in Toronto is a great option for stubborn areas that may grow back fast and/or coarse considering it provides a permanent solution to unwanted hair growth.

At Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto, we use Fotona’s high-performance Nd:YAG laser systems. This new system, combined with FRAC3® technology has introduced new standards of efficiency in providing safe and effective hair reduction – using an innovative system that effectively targets hair follicles with a combination of selective and homogenous photothermolysis.

MORE ABOUT Laser Hair Removal

A perfect choice for permanent hair removal

Fotona laser system in Toronto is a perfect choice for permanent hair removal. It incorporates revolutionary pulse-control technology and a proprietary three-dimensional treatment pattern (FRAC3®) to provide safe and effective facial hair reduction.

The Nd:YAG laser’s deep penetration allows it to penetrate even the deepest hair follicles, while its low absorption in all skin types preserves the surrounding tissue. This ensures safe, quick, and effective hair removal, even on the darkest skin types, without the epidermal damage that is inherent to conventional light-based treatments. The operation is brief and generally painless. Immediately, you will be able to resume your daily activities.

What is Laser Hair Removal and is it Safe For All Skin Types in Toronto?

With the help of cutting-edge pulse-control technology and a unique three-dimensional treatment pattern (FRAC3®), Fotona's Nd:YAG lasers can safely and effectively reduce hair. Only Nd:YAG is safe for use on all skin types, in contrast to other wavelengths. The ground-breaking device from Fotona in Toronto precisely targets surface treatment areas while sparing nearby tissues.

The patient's skin and hair types, as well as the practitioner's abilities and treatment understanding, all play a significant role in the success of hair reduction treatment.

Before Laser Hair Removal Treatment in Toronto

A key part to a successful Laser Hair Removal appointment with us at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto is making sure you have optimal preparation for the most success. To ensure this happens for your appointment, we at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic ask that you refrain from the following before your appointment:

  • The area being treated cannot be WAXED or TWEEZED before the appointment. In order to send laser energy down into the hair follicle and damage it, the Laser Hair Removal employs the hair shaft as a conduit. Therefore by removing the hair, there is no way for the laser to get into the follicle.
  • We at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto strongly suggest that in the area you are planning to receive treatment do not use any creams or skin care products.
  • In the area that has to be treated, avoid using skin care products, this includes any depilatory products. This can contain moisturizers, oils, cosmetics, scents, deodorant, antiperspirant, or powder. Using products beforehand may cause extra irritation and skin sensitivity. When arranging your appointment for Laser Hair Removal in Toronto, be sure to let the specialist know if you use any type of topical medication on your skin.
  • Refrain from tanning 2 weeks pre and post treatment. Tanning can increase sensitivity to the light, causing pain and damage to the skin. Additionally, it may cause some hyperpigmentation in the laser treated areas.

At Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto, we recommend the following TO DO before your appointment to ensure successful hair removal:

  • During your consultation with us at Perfect Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto, kindly inform our team of any medications you might be taking at this time. Depending on which medication, sometimes it can interfere with the success of your treatment. This goes for both ingestible and/or topical medication.
  • At Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto, we highly suggest shaving before your appointment. Shaving allows for a smooth surface and ability to have the laser target more precisely without interference of longer hairs.
  • It is possible to experience discomfort during your hair removal appointment, if you generally have a lower pain tolerance, you may take over-the-counter pain reducers before your appointment.

After Laser Hair Removal Treatment in Toronto

Booking your next appointment with us at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto, we recommend waiting between 6-8 weeks post appointment. It is best practice to consider your own hair growth cycle.

After your Laser Hair Removal appointment in Toronto, we recommend treating the area gently. Using fragrance free gentle cleanser. Do not wax/scratch/ pluck or thread the treated area. As well as continuing 2 weeks post appointment to avoid sun exposure.

Benefits of Laser Hair Removal in Toronto

Our facility at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic is in the Toronto region. The cost of Laser Hair Removal in Toronto / North York / Markham / Mississauga / Richmond Hill can vary from $100-$200 and up per session, depending on the size of the area being treated.

What to Expect for Laser Hair Removal in Toronto

Before your treatment, our team at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto will host a consultation with you. During the consultation we will assess your personal situation and which areas you wish to have treated, determining if you will be a good candidate for Laser Hair Removal. Upon successful candidacy determination, we strongly suggest that you do not pluck, wax, or sugar for a few weeks before your appointment with us in Toronto. When you do any of the above mentioned hair removal processes, these can damage the hair follicle before the procedure. Our Fotona Lasers use light and the follicle as a passage to destroy the follicle. Any damage beforehand can adversely affect this process and in turn affect your results.

During your Laser Hair Removal appointment in Toronto, your treatment provider will clean up the area and then proceed to apply the laser over your skin and hair, releasing pulses of light. With the Fotona laser, there is a cooling system in place that will help to remove heat from the skin's surface during your treatment. This helps to minimize discomfort and protect the skin from damage.

Post appointment with us at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto, it is possible to experience some redness and swelling around the treated area. This is very normal and will dissipate quickly. It's imperative to protect the area with clothing or sunscreen after your appointment as the area can be rather sensitive after treatment.

The weeks following your appointment in Toronto, it is possible to still see hair growing in the area. This is due to the body’s natural response of ejecting the lifeless hair, and will fall out easily. It's important to remember that hair grows in cycles and during one hair removal treatment may not successfully target every single hair. The number of treatments depends on your body’s own natural hair type and growth cycle. At Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto we will go over this with you more in-depth during your consultation.

Hair Growth Cycle breakdown

Anagen: The growth cycle, or anagen, is the best time for laser treatments to be effective. When hair is visible on the skin's surface during the anagen phase, the laser can hold onto it and transmit heat down the hair strand into the hair follicle.

Catagen: Right before the hair comes out naturally, not as a result of laser treatment, is the catagen stage of the hair cycle. Because the hair is being forced out of the follicle and is already dead, Laser Hair Removal won't be as effective during this time.

Telogen: The last stage, telogen, is characterized by neither hair growth nor development beneath the skin. Telogen, also known as the resting stage, is the least desirable time for Laser Hair Removal because no hair is visible above the skin's surface.

Due to the cyclical nature of hair growth, additional treatments with us at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto are required to attain permanent results. In general, you can anticipate a reduction of anywhere from 5% to 25% with each treatment, and the hair that grows back thereafter is often lighter and finer. Typically, treatments are performed every 6 to 8 weeks.

FAQ

Laser Hair Removal is a great option for many even with sensitive skin. With the advanced Fotona laser provided at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto, only the hair and follicle will be targeted, avoiding irritation of the surrounding skin surface. During the consultation before your treatment, our experienced team will determine eligibility to ensure it is the right option for you.
At Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto, we do not recommend wearing makeup immediately after your appointment. We suggest that you wait at least 24-48 hours after your appointment to apply any products. This gives the skin time to heal and prevents any possible irritation.
The body will begin to expel hair between 5-14 days after treatment in Toronto. It is expected and normal to not have all the hair fall out at once due to the different stages of hair growth during your treatment. This is why normally there are multiple different sessions, which will be discussed during your consultation with our team at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto.
Laser Hair Removal is intended to target hair follicles with small, high-temperature laser pulses. While you may not feel the heat, you may feel as if a rubber band is snapping on your skin. You may also feel modest discomfort following the operation, such as light sunburn-like redness and irritation. However, it is tolerable overall.
Due to the fact that hair grows in cycles and not all body hair is in the same stage at once, total removal requires multiple treatments. The outcome also depends on hair quality, the quantity of hair follicles, the individual’s metabolism and hormone level, but typically at least four to six treatments are required to eliminate all hair.
The Fotona Dynamis/Spectro Line that we offer at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic, has the most appropriate pulse profile, speed, and power for rapid and effective hair removal with both ultra-short FRAC3® pulses and normal long pulses. SOE (Scanner Optimized Efficacy) technology can be used to swiftly fill the whole treatment area with uniform energy at high laser pulse power densities, delivering quick, precise, consistent, and comfortable FRAC3® laser treatments for treating vast body portions of diverse shapes. The outcome is a safer, more consistent laser treatment devoid of hot spots and energy loss.
Light itching can be a typical side effect that can occur during or after laser treatment. As sensitive skin reacts to stimuli, this is quite normal. Some people may also experience slight redness or swelling in the vicinity of the treated area. Moreover, these effects are known to resolve quickly.
Unfortunately at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto, we are not able to remove hair that is over a tattoo. We can treat about a 3cm gap around the tattoo. The reason for this is that the laser works on identifying pigment, so with the tattoo colouration the laser will target the tattoo rather than the hair which can result in damaged skin.
