LaserAway Is the Safe, Easy Answer to the
Removal of Unwanted Hair

Imagine a hair-free chin, upper lip, legs, and bikini line without shaving tweezing, waxing or electrolysis. LaserAway offers the most advanced long-term laser hair removal. It's quick, easy, and safe.

Unwanted hair can be a great problem for many people and a simple nuisance for most others. Until now, options to remove hair were limited to smelly creams, sharper razors, tweezers, stinging wax, painful electrolysis, or treatment with lasers that were not developed for hair removal.

Dr. Taylor was one of the first physicians in the country and the first in south Texas to offer patients effective laser treatments for a variety of skin problems such as birthmarks, spider veins, and tattoos. Dr. Taylor was the first physician in San Antonio to acquire the new Epilaser™ hair removal system.

The Epilaser was developed by leading physicians at Harvard University. It is a laser developed specifically to treat unwanted hair.

Laser treatments leave your skin looking and feeling smoother and silkier. Best of all laser hair removal treatments are fast, gentle, and very effective when compared to other methods.

At last, there's great news for women who suffer the prevalent problem of excess facial hair. The Epilaser is faster and more efficient that traditional methods and is more considerate of the sensitive feminine skin.

Now you can eliminate the tedious routine of shaving your legs! The Epilaser uses the most advanced technology for removing unwanted hair and is well suited
for large areas of the body.

Finally, there is an almost painless and quick method for men who want to rid themselves of that unwanted hair on their back,chest, neck, etc. Depending on your needs, all body areas can be treated using this easy technology.

The laser uses a low energy laser to gently remove unwanted hair. Because the laser fires over an area about the size of a dime, it is possible to treat larger areas such as the back, face, arms, and legs. Laser treatments are effective on almost any area of the body.

Laser Hair Removal is a gentle process involving several steps. First, it is usually required that a few day’s hair growth is visible to determine the areas for treatment. The areas are than cleansed and shaved. Then the areas are scanned with the laser. The laser energy passes through the skin and is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicles. This disables the hair follicle. The treatment session with the laser can last from a few minutes to ½ hour, depending on the size of the area treated.

     Immediately after treatment, the treated area is left with what could best be described as a very mild sunburn. If there is some
mild blistering, this is usually healed within several days. The treated area must not be exposed to the sun for several weeks following treatment. If it is an area that is difficult to keep out of the sun (such as the face), it must be protected with sunscreen and total sun block.

The number of treatments you may require for optimal long term benefits depends on your skin pigmentation, the area you wish to have treated, and your hair’s growth cycle. Although it might not be possible to have "permanent" removal of your hair, most individuals can obtain 3-6 months of delayed growth with 3 or 4 treatments to the area. Each area, such as the upper lip or chin, requires 3-4 treatments to the whole area before long term delay of growth can be obtained. Even though the hair removal might not be "permanent," the hair that grows back is usually lighter in color and thinner than what it was prior to the laser treatments.

Your hair grows in cycles. The hair follicle has to be treated at the right phase of the growth cycle, so that several treatments might be necessary to achieve the desired, long term result. As described above most areas require at least three or four treatment sessions. Treatment costs vary as to the size treated. Each treatment session averages $200-350.00, although some areas may be treated for less.
