Laser Hair Removal

Paramus New Jersey Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is a rapid, agreeable alternative for eliminating unwanted body hair from the face, neck, upper lip, chin, under-arms, arms, back, legs and bikini line. It can also reduce the appearance of ingrown hairs, diminish irritating razor bumps, and mitigate the appearance of acne.

At the Robert Zubowski MD Center for Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, we can offer you permanent hair reduction with our state-of-the-art hair removal laser technology. Our hair removal laser treatment is an FDA-approved procedure for delivering the permanent reduction of undesirable hair for both men and women. If you have tried shaving, waxing or endured electrolysis, this treatment has made all of these older methods obsolete. It offers a much faster, less painful and more permanent solution to removing undesirable hair. Undergoing treatments will also diminish the expense of razors and help eliminate the hassle of bleaching cream and depilatories.

HOW DOES LASER HAIR REMOVAL WORK?

Our laser treatment expels the coarse stubble that causes hair follicle inflammation. To start, Dr. Robert Zubowski will apply a topical anesthetic cream to numb the area. Then the laser emits gentle pulses of energy that pass through the skin to the hair follicle. This laser energy is transformed into heat, absorbed into the dark pigmented hair follicle where the root is then destroyed so that hair can never grow there again. This procedure should take between five minutes to one hour, depending on the size of the area being treated and you can return to your normal activities immediately afterwards.

AM I A CANDIDATE?

Laser hair removal can be applied to all areas of the body and used on all types of skin. Men and women of all ages have the potential to be candidates for this procedure. Our hair removal procedure is safe for people of all ethnicities.

Dr. Zubowski will discuss the removal of your unwanted hair and the importance of customizing a treatment plan for your needs. He will share how it works, your potential treatment plan, and the related cost of laser hair removal.

HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?

Normally patients will see results after two to three sessions, scheduled six weeks apart, though this average will vary based upon your skin tone, hair color and several other factors. Dr. Zubowski will explain the variables that may affect your individual results. In some cases, patients can experience a significant reduction in hair after just one session and will notice softer, smoother skin after the first treatment.

Dr. Zubowski is widely recognized as a top NJ plastic surgeon located in Paramus, New Jersey. He is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and has over two decades of surgical experience in cosmetic surgery.
