Eliminate Ingrown Hairs
Ingrown hairs can cause discomfort, infections and self-consciousness.

Risks associated with Laser Hair Removal

Hair color and skin type are the key factors that influence the success of laser hair removal. It's most successful on people with dark hair (brown or black) and light skin. However, it can also be used safely on people with darker skin types. Laser hair removal does not work for white, blonde, light brown or light red hair.

Complications from laser hair removal are rare. Bleeding during the laser treatment is extremely rare, as is the possibility of infection resulting from treatment. Side effects from laser hair removal include, but are not limited to: Incomplete hair removal or regrowth. Some hair may be resistant to the laser treatment or may regrow after treatment.

Darkening of the skin (hyperpigmentation). This is usually a temporary condition, but in rare instances, is long lasting or permanent.

Lightening of the skin (hypopigmentation). This is of special concern with people who have darker skin. Laser hair treatment is more successful on fair skin, but darker skin also can be treated.

Blistering, scarring and changes in the skin texture, rarely occur. Crusting or scabbing, if this occurs, it's temporary. Hair changes. New hair growth may be finer and lighter in color. In some cases, new hair may grow in areas adjacent to the treated areas. This can be successfully treated with additional laser treatments.

After laser hair removal, no medications or bandages are necessary. You may notice some redness and swelling for the first few hours. Also, stinging may occur for the first 24 to 48 hours. Some people experience a slight crusting of the skin. If crusting occurs, keep the area moist with petroleum jelly (Vaseline). Avoid exercise and exertion for the first 24 hours. Perspiration from exertion may increase irritation caused by the laser. Avoid exposure to the sun for several weeks after treatment. After this period, make certain you apply sunscreen whenever you're in the sun. Avoid tanning booths — the ultraviolet light damages the skin. Don't wax or pluck hairs for three weeks before treatments. Don't pick at or manipulate the skin in treated areas. Don't rub or scrub the treated area. You may gently wash the area with soap and water.

Technical aspects of the Lyra Laser System
The Lyra-I system combines the longest available wavelength with a unique flat beam profile to maximize patient safety and efficacy. The unique flat beam profile consistently delivers energy in the therapeutic range to all targeted structures. The Lyra-I Laser uniquely avoids high peak powers ensuring patient safety. All Lyra-I patients are protected by patented continuous parallel contact cooling that protects the epidermis.
These unique features provide optimal results through deep penetration to the hair bulb, deeper leg vein and to the papillary dermis for dermal remodeling while maximizing patient safety. The remarkable depth of penetration of 1064nm is due to its low scattering and epidermal transparency allowing the effective delivery of energy to deeply seated targets, such as blue and purple vessels while safely avoiding epidermal pigment. Computer adjusted fluence, delivered in adjustable pulse widths coupled with 1mm to 5mm continuously adjustable spot size is ideal for treating vessels from .5 mm to 4 mm.
