Laser Hair Removal
About the EVO Laser
At Renew Wellness, we use the EVO Light laser with state-of-the-art technology that has transformed the hair removal process. With its unique features and benefits, it stands out from other laser hair removal devices available today. During a laser hair removal session, the device delivers pulses of laser light that are absorbed by the melanin (pigment) in the hair follicles. This absorption creates heat, which damages the follicles and prevents future hair growth. As the laser specifically targets melanin, it works best on dark, coarse hair while causing minimal harm to the surrounding skin.
Before & After
Laser Hair Removal FAQ
Is laser hair removal painful?
One of the standout benefits of the Quanta Light Evo laser hair removal machine is its ability to provide virtually pain-free hair removal. While traditional laser hair removal devices can cause discomfort during treatment, the Quanta Light Evo features an advanced cooling system that numbs the skin and minimizes pain. This makes the procedure much more comfortable for patients, allowing them to undergo multiple treatments in a single session without discomfort.
When can I expect to see results?
After laser hair removal, it’s important to understand that hair doesn’t fall out immediately. Instead, treated hairs will shed gradually over several days to weeks, typically starting one to three weeks after the session. This shedding is part of the hair growth cycle, as the laser targets hair follicles in the active growth phase, causing them to enter a dormant state.
​
The shedding timeline can vary based on factors like hair color, skin type, treatment area, and individual hair growth cycles. For example, facial hair may shed faster than hair on the legs or arms. While some patients notice reduced hair growth after the first session, multiple treatments are usually needed for optimal results, as the laser only targets hairs in the active growth phase during each session.
How long will the results last?
A key advantage of the Quanta Light Evo laser hair removal machine is its ability to deliver long-lasting results. After a series of treatments, patients can expect a substantial reduction in hair growth. Unlike traditional methods like waxing or shaving, laser hair removal provides a more permanent solution to unwanted hair.
What side effects should I expect?
After laser hair removal, it's common to experience mild reactions like redness, swelling, and a sunburn-like sensation, which typically last from a few hours to a couple of days. These effects occur as the laser targets melanin in the hair follicles. To soothe the skin, apply ice packs or cool compresses, and avoid sun exposure to prevent hyperpigmentation. Mild bumps or itching may also occur but usually resolve quickly.
