The Technology Behind Vectus.

Lasers such as the Vectus, spot particular chromophores or colors in the skin normally melanin. The melanin of the hair follicles gives the laser a target to focus on which results in the disruption of hair growth. This method heats the hair root selectively while leaving neighboring tissue intact. The lasers damage those chromophores allowing the laser to remove the undesired hair. The Cynosure Vectus Diode Lasers are complemented by chilling technology resulting in less discomfort then previous versions of the laser.

While shaving or waxing only removes what is visible, our Elite PLUS and Vectus laser technology reaches further to the source of your unwanted hair. Our light-based lasers pulse below the skin’s surface to destroy the pigment at the root of your hair follicles.

While the first session should lead to a noticeable reduction in unwanted hair, most patients will need 4-6 sessions to achieve lasting results. It takes multiple rounds to permanently target and damage all hair cells in a problem area.

Because laser treatments are only effective on actively growing hair, follow-up sessions need to be spaced out to allow surviving hair to re-grow. Only when hair is at the peak of its growth cycle, should it be re-targeted with another laser treatment.

Results You’ll Love

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM LASER HAIR REMOVAL IN SANTA BARBARA

  • Before your laser hair removal treatment:

    Before your first session, you will need to consult with your provider. They will need to review your medical history and any medications you are currently taking to come up with your best treatment plan. Your provider will prepare you with any information you’ll need to come prepared for your treatment!

    A few best practices will help ensure the most effective and smooth laser hair removal experience. To avoid blistering or discoloration, avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and even spray/self tans leading up to your treatment. Come to your session free of any topical products such as makeup, deodorant, or lotions.

    In addition, because the laser targets the roots of your hair follicles, you will also want to avoid plucking or waxing the target area for at least 4-6 weeks before your treatment. However, shaving all visible hair beforehand is essential. Shaving doesn’t affect the roots, but prevents burns and allows the laser treatments to be most effective. Plan on shaving 24-48 hours before your appointment. For more info on things to know and common questions see this blog 7 things you didn’t know about laser hair reduction treatments.

  • At your laser hair removal appointment:

    Before you begin, the lasers will be adjusted for your location, skin tone, and thickness. In addition, you will be given eye protection and offered topical anesthetic (for sensitive areas like the bikini line). A cooling gel will be applied to minimize side effects and protect the skin. 

    During your treatment sessions, you can expect to feel some heat as the laser light targets your hair cells. Most compare it to a light rubber band snap.

  • After your laser hair removal session:

    You may experience mild redness and swelling for a few hours after your treatment. Keep in mind that these side effects are generally less severe than the itchiness, redness, and cuts that come from traditional shaving or waxing. 

    Planning your treatment during your lunch break? No problem. You should be able to resume your normal activities immediately following your treatment!

Laser Hair Removal Santa Barbara FAQ’s

How long does it take?

An Elite PLUS or Vectus laser hair removal treatment lasts less than 30 minutes. Small treatment areas such as an upper lip may only take a few minutes. 

How many treatments will I need?

Patients generally need 4-6 treatments for lasting results. Remember that hair can only be removed when actively growing. To permanently reduce unwanted hair you’ll need to allow surviving hair follicles to regrow before re-targeting. Schedule 4-8 weeks between each session.

How long will the results last?

After completing the initial treatments, results can last for several months to years. When the hair eventually regrows, there tends to be less. Also, the hairs are generally finer and lighter. With one or two maintenance sessions a year, laser hair removal can be a permanent hair removal solution!

What areas can be treated?

See our blog for an in depth breakdown of  laser hair removal treatment areas. Laser Hair Removal treatments can be used for any area with unwanted hair. The most commonly requested areas include:

  • face
  • underarms
  • arms
  • chest
  • legs
  • bikini/Brazilian area

Laser treatments have other uses as well! In addition to hair, the same device we use for laser hair removal can also reduce spider veins and broken capillaries!
