Did you know that Vancouver Laser & Skin Care Centre
was started over 20 years ago by Dr. Martin Braun
when he brought the first laser hair removal machine
to Canada? Fast forward 20+ years and we are still
the “go-to” place for men and women from all over
Canada to remove their unwanted hair.
Why Choose Laser Hair Removal Over
Alternate Hair Control Methods?
Laser hair removal technology has come a long
way over the last 20 years. Laser hair removal
machines today are faster, more comfortable and way
more efficient than those that first were on the
market in the 1990’s. In fact, Vancouver Laser & Skin
Care Centre has 2 of the premier laser hair removal
machines, Fotona® SP Dynamis, available 6 days a week
to rid you of your unwanted hair. The cost, though
appears to be more costly than other methods
initially, actually works out to much less over a
lifetime of waxing and it is way less tedious than
shaving every couple of days.
What Areas Can You Treat?
Anywhere! Really! From your nose to your toes
and pretty much everything in between (including the
famous uni-brow).
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
We are asked this question every day. As most
hair grows on a 3-month cycle, new hair is
continually popping up. We recommend treating with
multiple sessions spaced about 8 weeks apart to
ensure that we are not wasting your time or your
money treating hair that has already been treated.
Can Any Hair be Treated?
For a hair to be successfully removed it must
still have pigmentation as this is how the laser
energy passes down the shaft to destroy the follicle.
The best reduction results come from hair that is
dark or black. Once the hair has turned grey, red or
blonde the likelihood of reduction is very slim as
there is less pigmentation in the strand.
What do I Need to do to Prepare for my
Laser Hair Removal Session?
Shave. Yes, I know it seems strange, but we
require that all our laser hair removal clients
arrive freshly shaven. As the laser energy targets
the pigmented hair, any hair above the skin’s surface
will also be targeted. This increases the possibility
of complications and can result in pigmentation and
scarring. The goal is to destroy the hair below the
skins surface to ensure maximum results with minimal
downtime.
Is Laser Hair Removal Safe?
Absolutely, as long as you visit a reputable
clinic. Laser hair removal machines are very powerful
and require regular maintenance and also highly
trained technicians to operate them. At Vancouver
Laser & Skin Care Centre our laser technicians go
through rigorous training both in clinic and
certifications from the laser company of the machine
they are using. Your safety is of paramount
importance to us.
