Time to say goodbye to hairy upper arms! At CHRIS you're assured of professional laser hair removal.
Having unwanted hair on your arms can be uncomfortable for many women and affect your self-confidence. Using traditional hair removal methods, such as shaving, waxing or hair removal creams, can be painful, irritate the skin and, on top of that, only have a temporary effect. With permanent hair removal of your arms, such as laser hair removal, you can enjoy smooth, hair-free arms without the worries and hassle of regular hair removal.
In addition, permanent hair removal of the arms also has benefits for your health. It can, for example, help prevent ingrown hairs and reduce the risk of infections and irritation caused by traditional hair removal methods. In short, by choosing permanent hair removal of your arms, you can not only enjoy the comfort of smooth, hair-free arms, but also contribute to healthier skin.
What exactly does laser hair removal of the upper arms involve?
Removing unwanted hair on the arms is a common wish among women. Fortunately, permanent hair removal of the arms offers a popular and effective solution. With this treatment, unwanted hair is permanently removed and both arms are treated, from below the shoulder joint down to the elbow. Since the arms are among the larger treatment areas, a session usually takes around twenty-five minutes. Would you also like to get rid of other unwanted hair? Then consider trying laser hair removal for the armpits, hands and legs as well.
Which factors influence my laser treatment for arm hair?
There are various factors that can influence your laser treatment for the arms. Laser hair removal is suitable for all skin tones, but the success of the treatment depends on the contrast between your skin and hair. It can be more challenging to treat dark hair on dark skin or light hair on light skin, which may require more sessions. But don't worry, we also offer the option of electric hair removal for these cases. Genetics and the hair growth cycle also play a role. If you have strong hair growth or high hormone levels, you may need extra sessions. Have you waxed in the past? Waxing reduces hair growth in the long term, so you may have less hair to treat. In that case, six treatments may be sufficient.
How to prepare for an upper arm laser treatment?
Laser hair removal of the upper arms is fairly simple. It's a quick and convenient way to remove unwanted hair. Here are some tips!
- Keep your arms out of the sun by wearing long sleeves.
- Avoid tanning beds or intense UV radiation.
- Tell your therapist about any medication you are taking.
- Cleanse your skin and keep it free of lotions, creams, moisturisers, perfumes and make-up.
- Make sure you shave 48 hours beforehand, or at least three hours before your session.
When will I see results after laser hair removal of my arms?
Permanent hair removal of the upper arms is a convenient solution for getting rid of unwanted hair, but it's not a quick fix. Each session only tackles a maximum of 20% of the hair. So after each session you'll see a reduction of about 20% of your hair. After a week the hair already starts to fall out, and after the third session you should have lost at least 50% of the hair. But keep in mind: to make the treatment effective, it's important to schedule each session about four to six weeks apart. If you don't, it will take longer to achieve the results you want. So stay consistent and stick to the schedule!
