Painless Laser Hair Removal in Santa Monica | Kare Plastic Surgery | Rated #1
Laser hair removal uses a process known as photothermolysis to zap away unwanted black hair from the face and body. Although the current generation of laser hair removal lasers are less painful than before, new strategies can be used to reduce discomfort with laser hair removal in our Santa Monica cosmetic dermatology clinic.
Dr. Raffy Karamanoukian and staff are proficient in laser hair removal techniques. Our office uses the Candela Gentle Yag laser hair removal system which is safe on all skin types and complexions. If you are sensitive to pain and discomfort, the Gentle Yag laser hair removal treatment sprays a cooling liquid nitrogen splash microseconds before the laser pulse in order to minimize your discomfort.
Additional measures to make laser hair removal less painful include topical numbing creams, Cooling Cryotherapy, and Aloe Vera gel to minimize the heat of the laser. Our goal is to optimize your treatment with the most effective laser hair removal treatments available.
Patients who desire laser hair removal for the face, body, or bikini are evaluated during an initial consultation to determine candidacy for treatment. Please call our patient care coordinators in Santa Monica to schedule an appointment for laser hair removal.
