Orange County Cosmetic Surgery Practice Offers Laser Hair Removal Special

NEWPORT BEACH, CA, January 03, 2013 (Press-News.org) A leading cosmetic rejuvenation practice in Orange County, CosmetiCare (http://www.cosmeticare.com), has announced the return of its popular laser hair removal special for a limited time. In recent years, the practice has performed hundreds of laser hair removal treatments to help its patients achieve smoother skin.

"There's no reason to put off feeling great about your body," says CosmetiCare's founder, Dr. Michael Niccole. "This special, available through the end of January, helps prospective patients get the results they want without worrying about spending too much."

The special gives patients 50 percent off a package of six laser hair removal treatments. Although an individual laser hair removal treatment is very affordable, the total cost of the repeat sessions that are needed to see lasting results can add up.

"A lot of people don't realize that permanent hair reduction doesn't happen with just one session," explains Dr. Niccole. "Hair can only be eliminated during its growth phase, and not all hairs in a particular area enter their growth phase at the same time. Patients have to come back a few times to make sure all hair follicles are targeted." He also stresses that areas of heavier hair growth will require more sessions, so discounting the total package rate can make a big difference.

With the affordable offer for new patients of the practice, many people in Orange County are choosing laser hair removal for multiple areas of the body. CosmetiCare's modern equipment is able to treat a wide variety of skin and hair colors successfully.

"The type of lasers we use can remove hair from virtually anywhere on the body," adds Dr. Burr von Maur, another plastic surgeon at the practice. "Legs, underarms and the bikini area are all very common areas for treatment. But we can also get rid of facial hair, unwanted hair growth on the back, or just about anywhere else. Laser treatments are also much more convenient than bleach or wax, and offer a lasting solution."

Laser hair removal works by using concentrated laser energy to kill the hair follicle, preventing any regrowth. The procedure is noninvasive; no anesthesia is required, although a topical anesthetic may be applied to the targeted area to minimize discomfort. Those with dark hair find the most successful results with laser hair removal, since darker pigments absorb the laser energy better than light-colored hair. The treatments are performed on an outpatient basis, and a session can take less than an hour, depending upon the surface area that needs to be treated.

CosmetiCare (http://www.cosmeticare.com) was founded in 1982 by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Niccole. Serving thousands of patients each year, CosmetiCare is an award-winning practice that has become one of the most recognized names in aesthetic services in Southern California and throughout the nation.
