Restorations utilizes a system of pulsed light to safely and effectively remove hair at its source. Pulsed-light systems work by emitting pulses of intense lamplight into the hair follicles. The light is absorbed by the pigment in the follicles and converted to heat. The heat then loosens the hair and disables the cells responsible for growing new hair. Traditional waxing and threading treatments, which essentially rip the hair from the skin, can be quite painful. Most people, however, find pulsed-light treatments to be significantly more comfortable. In addition, since the pulses of light penetrate the skin, you do not need to let your hair grow out before you are treated. With pulsed-light treatments, you can remain virtually hair-free all the time!
