Laser, which stands for “Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation”, was invented in 1960. Three years later, Leon Goldman became known as ‘the father of lasers in medicine in the United States’ when he began using the technology for dermatological purposes. Today, the one place you are most likely going to find a dermatologist on staff, specializing in laser hair removal, is at a NYC med spa like Eureka Body Care and Spa.

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive procedure that works by selectively concentrating light energy in hair follicles. It is a comfortable process offered in most med spas. Depending on the areas treated, it can take anywhere from ten minutes to an hour. One session fits perfectly into the hustle and bustle of New York City. After each session, New Yorkers can slip right back into the hustle and bustle without worrying about the effects.

You might understand the process but have questions regarding laser hair removal and its necessity. Consider this comprehensive list of shaving-related facts and statistics:

The human body has as much hair per square inch as a chimpanzee!
74 % of men and women are turned off by body hair.
65 % of women consider body hair to be a factor when choosing a spouse or partner.
Close to 100 % of men prefer women to have clear, smooth skin.
A woman’s total hair removal area is 18 times greater than a man’s.
Women shave for an average of 54 years, between the ages of 13 and 67.
In one lifetime, a woman will spend a total of 2 months shaving, use 2 bathtubs worth of hair removal cream and spend approximately $10,000.

Armed with that information, consider laser hair removal as an alternative. It is the # 1 non-invasive aesthetics treatment. The average lifetime cost of laser hair removal is $3000, compared to $10,000 for shaving and $23,000 for waxing. Those who undergo the process find it to be comfortable and report only tingly sensations. A small area takes about a minute. Large areas take up to an hour. After anywhere between 3 and 6 procedures, permanent hair loss is achieved.

Eureka is a NYC med spa that uses the MeDioSTAR Laser, which works up to 10 times faster than any other laser hair removal machine. Schedule an appointment every 6-8 weeks. After 6-8 of these sessions, you may need a touch up package with 8-12 week intervals until all hair is removed.
