Let’s face it. No one loves their shaving routine. It’s inconvenient at the best of times and painful at the worst of times. We’ve all dreamed about not needing to pack a razor for a trip or never having to twist yourself into a pretzel to shave those hard to reach places… and you don’t need to!
We talked to the laser hair removal experts at Milan Laser Hair Removal about ditching the razor, and here are their top six reasons to ditch your razor for laser hair removal now.
Permanent Results
With shaving, you’re only removing a portion of the hair that will grow back in a few hours or days. On the other hand, each laser hair removal treatment provides permanent results by using a laser pulse to destroy the hair follicle so it can never grow again.
That said, new hair follicles can become active for a variety of reasons such as pregnancy, menopause, or genetics and new hair can grow. To avoid paying touch-up fees down the road, Milan Laser recommends finding a package that offers unlimited laser hair removal sessions for life at no additional cost.
Skin Irritation
Razor blades can leave your skin feeling dry, itchy, and painful. And continuously shaving to maintain your results means your skin rarely heals from this damage, which can lead to ingrown hairs and razor burn. With laser hair removal, you don’t have to worry about skin irritation because the laser removes unwanted hair without damaging the skin.
Cost
Shaving may seem less expensive, however, it’s an endless expense. If you spend an average of $30 a month on shaving supplies, you could be spending $360 yearly and upwards of $18,000 in your lifetime. When you compare that to the cost of laser hair removal, it’s easy to see that you’ll save money and time with the permanent results from laser treatments. Most places also offer payment plans to help make it more affordable, like Milan Laser’s no-interest payment plans with payments as low as $29 a month.
Pain
While it doesn’t exactly tickle, laser hair removal is significantly less painful than waxing, and any discomfort fades much faster than the annoying pain of razor nicks. For the most comfortable laser hair removal treatments, you’ll want to go somewhere that uses a laser with a built-in cooling mist like the one Milan Laser uses. This technology releases a cooling mist immediately after each pulse of the laser during a treatment.
It’s for Everyone
While some might wonder if laser hair removal only works for certain skin tones or hair colors, technology advancements have made treatments safe for everyone. For example, Milan Laser’s GentleMax Pro laser provides the safest laser hair removal treatments. That’s because it’s really two lasers in one machine, which allows treatments to be customized to treat the specific skin tone and hair type of each client.
Get It While You Can
When it comes to laser hair removal, sooner is better than later. That’s because the laser targets the pigment in the hair follicle to permanently destroy it. If there isn’t enough pigment in the hair (if it is gray or completely white), the laser has nothing to target, you’ll have missed your opportunity to ditch your shaving and waxing routine! This should not be confused with blonde hair, which is usually treatable.
