Laser Hair Removal is Growing in Popularity

Laser hair removal is growing consistently and significantly in the United States as a means for shedding unwanted hair efficiently. Some sources point to nearly 3 million people nationwide using laser hair removal in 2017 alone, which is over a 20% increase since 2010!

Laser hair removal seems to be growing in popularity for American men and women due to convenience, time and cost savings.

Convenience and time savings

Face it. Other means of removing unwanted hair can be tedious – and eternally repetitive. Shaving and waxing is never “done”. Some people even need to shave more than once a day!

Because of the growth cycle of hair, laser hair removal can entail up to eight treatments. Even with the number of treatments, it’s a process that can have you parting with your razor or wax within a few months. When you consider how all that time adds up, you have at least one very strong reason to choose laser hair removal.

Cost management

While personal care routines can shift with the endorsement of the celebrity du jour, shaving as been a steady and growing trend for women for about a century. Some estimates have women in the U.S. spending over $1 billion annually on razors. At the individual level, women are likely to spend over $10,000 and as much as $23,000 over the course of their lifetimes on hair removal. In comparison, the cost of laser hair removal is extremely economical. A strong financial reason exists for electing laser hair removal.

Continuous enhancement in technology

When initially introduced, laser hair removal was not very easy. As described in Skin Inc., “The first generation of laser hair removal technology focused mainly on heating up the hair follicle, and machines were not accompanied by pain-reducing features.”

However, today’s lasers including our Cynosure’s Elite+ Laser System are extremely advanced. The Cynosure Elite+ offers two optimal wavelengths in one system. This allows the ability to switch between wavelengths during a single procedure and select the most appropriate laser for any given hair or skin type. Best of all, though, is that the latest laser technology minimizes pain during treatment.

Add to all this the self-confidence that comes with the freedom from excessive and unsightly facial, back, chest, leg, underarm, and arm hair, and it’s easy to see why so many people are turning to laser hair removal.

These are just a few of many reasons that both women and men increasingly are choosing laser hair removal. One of the best reasons, however, is YOU! When you’re self-conscious about unwanted hair or simply tired of your current hair removal routine, it can be the perfect choice for you as well.

Re.You Studio offers FREE CONSULTATIONS on laser hair removal that provide you the information you need to make the decision that’s best for you. You can schedule your consultation online or by phone (513-321-1234).

Hey Guys! Laser Hair Removal’s for Men Too!

When it comes to hair, men seem to be locked in this paradox: losing the hair on their heads more quickly than they’d like while chest and back hair seems to sprout with just like dandelions in the neighbor’s yard. And be just about as welcomed.

Could Laser Hair Removal Give You an Extra 1,415 Hours?

When you dream of the beach this summer, does every sound you hear, from seagulls cawing and waves breaking to fog horns warning, seem to be mocking the hair your bikini doesn’t cover? Are the minnows darting in the shallows scurrying from hairy legs? Do dolphins leap by taunting you with their smooth skin?

Making the Most of your Laser Hair Removal Treatments

Preparing for Laser Hair Removal Treatments

You’ve taken the plunge into the realm of laser hair removal and now you need to know how best to make your treatments most effective. Well, you’ve come to the right place! Let’s look at what you need to know before you come in for your laser hair removal treatments.

First and foremost, it is very important that the areas being treated are free of sun exposure at least 4 weeks prior to your laser hair removal treatments. Sunless tanning creams, and spray tans are also to be avoided before your treatment, as well as waxing, threading, and cream depilatories. And of course shave the area within 24 hours of your appointment. Shaving will preserve the hair follicle and hair shaft as well as make your treatment more comfortable.

What to Do After Laser Hair Removal

Now, you ask what should you do after laser hair removal treatments? To make the most of your laser hair removal treatments you will want to use a loofah about a week after your treatments. Exfoliation is an important part of maintaining healthy skin after undergoing laser treatments. Removing dead skin cells will encourage healthy circulation as well as allow the hairs to fall out more easily. As your treatments progress, there will be less and less hair to shave, however, you may continue shaving between treatments, but give your skin a chance to recover. We suggest that you wait a few days before shaving again. And, always remember to moisturize your skin. Moisturizers helps nurture your skin and control the inflammation that ensues after laser hair removal treatments. Aloe Vera is a great choice as far as moisturizers are concerned as it aids in the alleviation of inflammation which often accompanies potential skin irritation from laser treatments. At Re.You Studio, we will guide you every step of the way, from your very first treatment through the triumphs of completing your laser hair removal process.

Laser Hair Removal for Chronic Razor Burn

Say Goodbye to Razor Burn with Laser Hair Removal

One of the most common reasons men seek laser hair removal is for a condition known as Pseudofolliculitis. If you’ve ever suffered from this condition, you know how uncomfortable and bothersome this can be. Pseudofilliculitis is an unpleasant ailment typically affecting men’s beards, women’s bikini’s and or other delicate areas. If you suffer from chronic razor burn, barber’s itch, razor bumps then laser hair removal is your answer to smoother, softer, hair free skin without all these side effects associated with shaving, waxing or tweezing. Pseudofolliculitis Barbae are hairs that after being shaved, begins to grow back slowly and Curly hairs or coarse hairs tend to curl into the skin instead of straight out the follicle, leading to an inflammation reaction. PFB can make the skin look itchy and red, and in some cases, it can even look like pimples. These inflamed papules or pustules can form, especially if the area becomes infected. The pseudofolliculitis can be further classified as either extrafollicular or transfollicular. Extrafollicular hair is hair that has grow outside the skin and then re-entered through the follicle. Transfollicular, or ingrown hairs never exit the skin, but coil inside the follicle instead.

Pseudofolliculitis should not be confused with razor burn. Although they are similar conditions, razor burn is characterized by milder redness. Razor burn is also considered a transient condition, whereas pseudofolliculitis is recurring.

Laser hair removal is an effective treatment for pseudofolliculitis because it removes hair permanently from its origin therefore negating the need for continued shaving. Without shaving, no ingrown hairs can occur, making laser hair removal an effective treatment on areas prone to the condition, such as men’s beard area and women’s bikini lines.

The Hidden Costs of Laser Hair Removal Through Groupon

That Groupon Deal Might Cost More Than You Think

A job or project sits unfinished.  Is there anything more aggravating? Yet, that’s what can happen with some Groupon offers recently published for laser hair removal.

Local Groupon offers currently available in the market are redeemable for a series of four laser hair removal treatments.  However, it’s unlikely that four sessions will complete the process and attain the desired result.  The Groupon offer-takers are apt to find they will need additional sessions to complete the desired hair removal, and purchasing those additional treatments will add cost that exceeds a full treatment series at Re.YouStudio.

Just consider if Groupon presented an offer for a great price on one Gucci shoe, limit one.  Or an offer on a one-way flight to Australia.   When the cost of the other shoe or the return flight approaches or exceeds the regular price of the complete pair, or of the round trip, the promotional offer seems silly.

Laser Hair Removal Takes Several Treatments

Purchasing a series of four laser hair removal treatments is very similar.  More treatments will be necessary to complete the job, and the cost of those individual treatments will likely exceed the regular price of a full course of laser hair removal treatments.

At Re.YouStudio, we provide a free consultation with customers about their laser hair removal needs in advance of treatment.  The consultation establishes upfront the number of treatments required.  Re.YouStudio is generally less expensive than many larger chains.  You can take advantage of package pricing, as well as promotional discounts that may be available at the time of your consultation.

You’ll start the process knowing the real cost will be fair and competitive, AND that it will complete the process!

Whether you want to remove unwanted hair for beach season, a honeymoon or other special trip, or just a better look in summer clothes, the professional staff at Re.YouStudio will help you get the job done.  In its entirety!
