What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Since its approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the 1990s, laser hair removal has quickly become one of the most popular cosmetic treatments on the market. This state-of-the-art approach to hair removal uses pulses of high-intensity light to target the hair follicles, creating touchably smooth skin that lasts. Best of all, laser hair removal can address unwanted hair throughout the body, including the arms, back, legs, face, chest, and intimate areas. If you're ready to discover the benefits of laser hair removal for yourself, we invite you to learn more by scheduling a consultation at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery. Reach out to either of our Chicago, IL med spa locations to get started.
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
On the day of your appointment, you will be asked to relax in one of our treatment rooms as we wash away any dirt or oil from the treatment area. During your laser hair removal treatment, our technician will slightly stretch the skin to create a clear pathway between the laser and the hair follicle root. The laser's energy will target and disable the follicle, which prevents it from growing again. On average, you will need several treatments over the course of 1 – 2 months to get your ideal results. Your sessions will be spaced out in order to give the treated areas a chance to heal. This also allows time for hair follicles in the dormant phase of growth to change to the phase of active growth so they can be treated. The sophisticated laser hair removal technology we use at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery targets the hair follicle alone to preserve the skin in the treated area.

Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery Reviews
Dr. Moradian was phenomenal before, during, and after my procedure. Before the procedure, Dr.Moradian was able to answer all of my questions and alleviated my concerns. His care and attention to detail during the procedure had me feeling confident about the future of my results. After the surgery, he set me up with a successful post-op regimen as well as followed up with me to make sure everything was healing correctly. I am only 4 months out and I have my ideal stomach. The words I can write to express to joy I feel every time I look at the results in the mirror could fill a book. Thank you Dr. Moradian
I’m so glad to have met Dr. Moradian. He’s a fantastic surgeon and his bedside manner is comforting as well as approachable. He was patient with my questions and I felt very at ease with him. I’ve recommended him to friends and family. He’s truly one of the best.
If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, experienced, and intuitive with the needle then go see Brittany!! She is hands down the best. I took my mom to see her for a consultation with hopes to fix a facial injury, she took the time to really listen and give her honest opinion on what would be best for treatment. After a very thorough consult, they landed on a plan for filler to improve her injury and help her feel like herself again. This treatment literally brought tears to my mom’s eyes and brought her confidence back! So go so Brittany for all of the treatments, you won’t regret it!
I can’t say enough, what a great experience I had with Dr. Simon Moradian. His work is outstanding, he is caring, patient and kind. I had an upper blepharoplasty, it was easy, painless and I was back to playing tennis is 9 days (don’t tell him). If you are debating, don’t, it is a good thing. Dr. Moradian is a great doctor to trust and be under his care. Hope you are as fortunate as I was.
Dr. Fine is simply amazing! I started this journey full of fear and uncertainty, and came out thrilled with the result. I never expected that my breasts would look better post mastectomy and reconstructive surgery, then my natural ones yet here I am, staring in the mirror every day with awe. I am super thankful to Dr. Fine and his team: wonderful Barbara, Monika and Kat and all the beautiful ladies who welcomed me with smile every time. 5 stars!
