Hair Removal Ottawa
Pulsed light hair removal is a fast, comfortable and permanent alternative to shaving, waxing and electrolysis. The Palomar pulsed light hair removal system emits light that disables the cells responsible for growing hair. The system works in a way that is very similar to “laser hair removal” but the difference is that the Palomar system can treat a larger area.
The system is very safe however, due to the intensity of the light it uses it should not be used around the eyes. The treatment is comfortable although you may experience a sensation similar to a mild sunburn. This usually lasts 2 to 24 hours and can be soothed with cold gel or ice packs. In order to achieve a permanent result several treatments will be necessary.
