Unwanted hair is a common concern for many individuals, both men and women but laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that can remove face and/or body hair. At our office in Tampa laser hair removal works by emitting light energy into unwanted hair follicles in a treatment area.
The energy penetrates the melanin in these follicles and the pigment is then absorbed by the energy, which destroys hair in that growth cycle. At Vein & Cosmetic Center of Tampa Bay, in addition to laser skin resurfacing, we offer the latest laser hair removal options to help you reduce or eliminate hair growth and achieve smooth, touchable, and hair-free skin in treated areas with greater comfort and results than ever before. Dr. Jeffrey Hunt, our board certified physician, performs hair removal using Fotona with FRAC3® technology at our state-of-the-art practice. This advanced laser light modality is designed to comfortably kill hair follicles for lasting hair removal for a wide array of areas, including the face, back, chest, legs, bikini, and more.

In the past, laser hair removal was only appropriate for certain patients. Advances in technology have made it possible to address a wide range of hair colors and skin types with typically excellent results. Introducing Fotona FRAC3®, an innovative and versatile laser hair removal technique that offers virtually pain-free hair reduction for both large and small areas. Fotona uses an Nd:Yag laser, which is designed for use on pale, medium, and even dark skin tones without causing damage to the surrounding tissue. During your initial consultation, we can determine if this method best suits your needs and goals.
Fotona utilizes proprietary FRAC3® technology, a 3D treatment pattern that makes addressing larger areas, like the back, legs, and chest, faster and easier than ever before. Fotona may require fewer treatment sessions to reduce unwanted hair, and there is typically no downtime, so you can get back to your life sooner. Sensitive areas, such as the face, bikini line, and neck, can be treated with little to no discomfort, and the deep penetrating laser offers longer-lasting results than traditional laser techniques. If you’re tired of shaving, waxing, or plucking, or if you’ve been disappointed by other laser hair removal modalities, Fotona may be the solution you’ve been waiting for.

While you may see hair reduction in the treated areas after the first treatment, most of our patients need somewhere between six and eight treatments to remove all the hair. That’s because hair grows in cycles, so not all follicles are in the active growth phase while you are in treatment.
Side effects can vary depending on hair color, skin type, your laser hair removal treatment plan and your adherence to after care instructions. In general, the most common side effects include mild discomfort, irritation, and swelling and redness and these typically subside on their own within several hours.
Yes. Laser hair removal removes ingrown hairs because it kills the problem at its root: the hair follicle.
No. While it can cause mild and temporary stinging sensation, we provide topical anesthetic creams to ensure your maximum comfort during your laser hair removal treatment.
If you have unwanted hair, chances are you’re a candidate however laser hair removal tends to be most effective on individuals with light skin tones and dark hair.
No, shaving will not have any effect on your results. You should however, refrain from direct sun exposure or tanning treated areas as your skin will be extra sensitive following treatment.
While laser hair removal is long lasting, it is not permanent and new hairs may eventually grow back. Lasers are often touted as offering permanent hair removal but most patients will require at least one touch up over the years.
