Who
is a candidate? |
 |
Women with hormonal imbalance that has resulted
in excessive body or facial hair; women or men
who have excessive hair growth due to medications;
anyone tired of shaving their legs and/or underarms
every day; anyone that gets a rash, irritation,
or bumps from shaving; anyone who gets ingrown
hairs, even women who have noticed embarrassing
hair growth from their chin or upper lip. About
80% of men and women suffer from some degree of
unwanted hair. Laser hair removal does exactly
what it says: it removes (unwanted) hair using
a laser beam of light.
Everyone knows that laser light is the
best way to remove unwanted hair.
Of the laser methods available today, those based
on alexandrite laser have proven over the years
to be the most effective and the safest to use
on the widest variety of hair and skin types.
Alexandrite laser hair removal is better than
traditional methods – shaving, waxing, depilatory
creams, tweezing and even electrolysis –
which have been inadequate and disappointing.
Unlike laser hair removal, they are time consuming,
frequently expensive, and usually only temporary,
meaning you have to perform them again and again,
sometimes daily. Marino's Clinical Division offers
a new generation of laser hair removal solutions
to help you achieve permanent results quickly,
effectively and affordably. |

How
does laser hair removal work? |
 |
Hair grows in three stages. Laser technology
is designed to treat hair in its active phase
of growth:
| 1 |
Highly concentrated laser light
is transmitted 1-5 millimeters into the skin. |
| 2 |
The laser targets the melanin, or pigment,
in air follicles while they are in their
active phase. |
| 3 |
The hair absorbs the light, where it is
converted into heat, causing thermal damage
to the follicle without harming the surrounding
tissue. |
| 4 |
The follicle is disabled, and hair re-growth
is impaired. |

 |
How
many laser hair removal treatments does it take? |
 |
Treatments are spaced approximately 4-8 weeks
apart, based on hair growth cycles. Usually5 treatments
are required in order to achieve the long-term hair
removal you desire. |

 |
Is
laser hair removal safe? |
 |
Yes. Laser hair removal treatments at Marino Salon
& Spa are extremely safe, and Marino technicians
are extensively trained and experienced in laser
treatments for long-term hair removal. The technologies
used have received FDA clearance. |

 |
What
are the benefits of laser hair removal? |
 |
Marino’s Clinical Division brings you
the latest advances in laser hair removal to get
you the safe, effective results you desire. Our
laser hair removal treatments are based on pulses
of light, scientifically calibrated to your unique
skin and hair type. Laser hair removal treatments
do not pull hair out like waxing or individually
probe each follicle like electrolysis. This means
minimal discomfort and no recovery time. It also
means an end to ingrown hairs and the unsightly
rashes caused by other outdated methods. Numerous
follicles are treated at once. This means that
for one laser hair removal appointment, you are
in and out of our studio quickly – you can
even have your treatment performed on your lunch
break. Because they are tailored to your individual
needs, laser hair removal treatments are far more
effective then previous methods you have tried.
Simply put… you will never have to shave,
wax or tweeze again. Get rid of your razor bumps.
Get rid of ingrown hairs. It’s the fastest
methods of long lasting hair removal. Treatments
are affordable, safe, gentle and fast. |

 |
Does
laser hair removal hurt? |
 |
Discomfort is generally mild and transient. Side
effects are uncommon and generally temporary. It
may feel like a quick snap of a rubber band. We
can use a topical numbing solution for discomfort. |

 |
Does
the laser hair removal treatments produce permanent
results? |
 |
It does vary with each individual, however, after
a series of treatments, you can expect a longer
time before re-growth; thinner, finer re-growth
and in many cases, permanent reduction of hair growth.
With treatments spaced 4-8 weeks apart, you can
expect a permanent decrease in the amount of hair
in the treated area. |
