Experience the freedom of being hair-free!
Precision, high-volume, lasting laser treatment for unwanted hair
At Alchemy Wellness Medspa, Dr. Saima Jehangir understands, empathizes with, and accounts for the many parts of you that contribute to your systemic health and overall well-being. Dr. Jehangir leads a team in Austin, Texas, that appreciates the toll excess hair can take on your life. We know unwanted hair can be a source of embarrassment. It can make you feel less than your best, and you deserve to lead your fullest, richest life! Furthermore, we appreciate conventional hair removal is plagued by pitfalls not limited to the following:
- Temporary, unfavorable results
- Costly supplies
- Too much time in the bathroom tweezing and shaving
Laser-assisted treatment by our professionals is the answer to these conventional methods of temporarily addressing unwanted hair. Our use of the Cynosure Vectus® Laser system also presents a well-tolerated and efficient alternative to other forms of earlier-generation “permanent” hair reduction. These methods have included electrolysis, which can be painful and requires treating each follicle one at a time. So, it can also be a painstaking process!
Due to the design of this laser device, the Vectus® is considered to be your answer for “high-volume hair removal.” When directed toward the area(s) of unwanted hair, the laser precisely targets the follicles within these zones. This allows Dr. Jehangir to treat more hair faster during each treatment session. So, you spend less time “chairside” at our office and more time enjoying your increasingly smooth, hair-free skin and appearance.
The laser generates controlled heat to damage the follicles through which the hair grows. Additionally, many built-in features and safeguards promote the most comfortable treatment experience and optimal and customized results. This includes Advanced Contact Cooling™ to prevent damage caused by the application of excessive heat to the skin/treatment zone.
More on what to expect
Permanent professional laser hair removal can treat almost any part of the body and some portions of the face. These areas include the chest, back, legs, underarms, and bikini line. Following a consultation, we may recommend treatment with the Vectus®. We will go through everything to expect before, during, and after treatment, including any preparation and post-treatment care.
Each treatment session also involves wearing protective eyewear. We ensure your safety from potential damage caused by this powerful laser technology. Unlike other devices and approaches, our laser uniformly treats the follicles. So we don’t have to keep passing the laser over the same areas repeatedly. In fact, we can treat even big areas (like the back or chest) in around five minutes. With earlier-generation lasers and treatments, treating such spots may have required an hour or longer.
Frequently Asked Questions About Laser Hair Removal
What is the Cynosure Vectus Laser, and how does it work?
The Cynosure Vectus Laser is a state-of-the-art, safe, and efficient hair removal device. It uses advanced diode laser technology to target and disable hair follicles without damaging the surrounding skin. The Vectus Laser delivers fast treatments with consistent results and is suitable for a wide range of skin tones. Its built-in cooling system enhances comfort during treatment, making it one of the most effective and patient-friendly options available today.
Why is the Vectus Laser better than other laser hair removal systems?
The Vectus Laser stands out due to its powerful performance, safety features, and speed. It uses Skintel melanin reader technology, which measures your skin tone before treatment to customize settings for optimal safety and effectiveness. This makes it especially beneficial for clients with darker skin or those concerned about irritation. Its large spot size allows quicker treatment sessions, even on larger areas like the back or legs.
What areas of the body can be treated with the Vectus Laser?
The Vectus Laser can effectively reduce unwanted hair on any body part. Common areas include the face, arms, bikini area, underarms, legs, chest, back, and abdomen. Thanks to its precision and versatility, the Vectus system is ideal for both large and small treatment areas. Whether you want subtle refinement or a full, smooth finish, your treatment can be tailored just for you.
How many sessions are needed to see results with the Vectus Laser?
Hair grows in cycles, and the laser is the most effective during the active growth phase. Most clients need six to eight sessions spaced several weeks apart. The Vectus Laser’s high performance often leads to quicker and more noticeable results than traditional systems. We will monitor your progress closely and adjust your treatment plan to help you achieve the best outcome.
Does the Vectus Laser treatment hurt?
Most clients describe the sensation as a mild snap or warmth against the skin. The Vectus Laser features Advanced Contact Cooling to keep the surface of your skin comfortable during treatment. While sensitivity can vary depending on the treatment area and hair density, discomfort is typically minimal and far less intense than waxing or other hair removal methods.
Are there any side effects or downtime after treatment?
Laser hair removal with the Vectus system involves little to no downtime. You may experience mild redness or slight swelling, typically fading within a few hours. We advise avoiding direct sun exposure, hot showers, and vigorous exercise for 24 hours after treatment. Our team will provide personalized aftercare tips to ensure smooth results and healthy skin.
