What makes the Cynosure laser great for hair removal?
The Cynosure medical-grade laser leads to fast results, fewer treatments, and is safe for all skin types. Even better, most of our Buckhead and Alpharetta laser hair removal clients enjoy 90% reduction in permanent hair removal after four to five treatments, which are scheduled every four weeks for optimal results. Although some results will be noticeable within one to two weeks following your first treatment, your results will become more noticeable after each treatment. And if you’re concerned that laser hair removal is painful, know that most of our Buckhead and Alpharetta clients report no discomfort when we administer a numbing air spray to their skin.
Is Laser Hair Removal Safe?
Yes, for two reasons.
First, the lasers use non-ionizing energy, so there is no risk of skin cancer. Second, the laser never passes the dermis, or second layer of the skin, where the hair follicles are located. Still, you need to ensure that your laser hair removal treatment is administered by a trained and certified professional – such as the ones at Bella Medspa’s Buckhead and Alpharetta locations.
After enough treatments, laser hair removal is permanent, and it’s most effective when removing dark hair from light skin. Consequently, lasers are exceptionally good at permanently removing pubic hair.
THE NITTY-GRITTY ON LASER HAIR REMOVAL
Preparing for laser hair removal
Before receiving laser hair removal at our Buckhead or Alpharetta office, it’s essential to ensure that your body is hormonally stable and in good health. Medical conditions such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) can impact the effectiveness of the treatment and may need to be managed first.
Different Types of Body Hair
Understanding the types of body hair can help you know what to expect from laser hair removal. Here’s a quick overview:
- Vellus Hair: This soft, fine hair grows on areas like the face, chest, and back. It provides some insulation for the body.
- Terminal Hair: Coarser and darker, terminal hair grows on the scalp and, post-puberty, appears in areas like the armpits, pubic region, legs, and chest. It serves to protect and cushion these areas.
Certain medical conditions or medications (e.g., anabolic steroids) can lead to excessive hair growth, such as coarse hair on the chest, face, belly, and back.
Unsatisfactory Alternatives to Laser Hair Removal

Waxing
