Why do I need multiple treatments?

Your hair doesn’t grow constantly. It grows in cycles that include stages of shedding and rest. Lasers can only reduce growth when follicles are in their active growth or “anagen” phase, but not all follicles operate on the same schedule. That’s why our professionals strategically schedule a series of treatments, so they can catch every follicle at the right time.

Is laser hair removal permanent?

No laser can offer truly permanent results, but at JK Med Spa, our physician-led team uses industry-leading technology to offer long-lasting results. Hormonal changes like pregnancy and menopause change your hair’s growth cycle, so the duration of your results depends on your body. If you notice new growth after completing your treatment plan, we’ll help you schedule maintenance sessions to restore your smooth results.

How do I prepare for my appointment?

Avoid sun exposure for the 2 weeks leading up to your treatment to avoid developing a sunburn. Otherwise, we’ll help you reschedule, as the sun makes your skin more sensitive to laser energy and interferes with its effectiveness. Shave the treatment area a day or 2 before your appointment to help the laser target the follicles at the root. Do not wax the area, as this removes the follicle entirely. Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup, lotion, self-tanner, and other products, as these can act as a barrier between your skin and the laser.

Is there any downtime?

While you can return to your routine immediately, your skin may feel more sensitive for 24 to 48 hours after treatment. In the meantime, you can apply a cool compress to the area to reduce any redness or swelling. Stay out of the sun and stick to gentle products to protect your skin as it heals.

Smooth Skin That
Stays Smooth

We get it—you’ve got better things to do than shave every other day. That said, we know that when life gets busy and you skip shaving, you might feel limited by what you’re comfortable wearing or even skip out on a spontaneous pool day.

At JK Med Spa, our physician-led team helps you break free from the cycle of shaving, irritation, and stubble. Using InMode’s revolutionary Diolaze technology, we zap unwanted growth at the source, so you can embrace smooth skin that lasts. Using high-powered light energy to gently heat unwanted hair follicles, we can slow down their natural growth cycle.

We use Diolaze technology because it works. Not only does it offer you more effective, comfortable, and shorter treatments, but it’s uniquely designed to work on all skin types. Our medical professionals tailor every treatment to your exact needs, adjusting the settings based on your skin and hair type, to give you the results you deserve.

Results & Maintenance

You’ll notice your hair grows back slower and finer after each treatment. Most people see initial results within a few weeks and achieve lasting results after a full series.
