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 performed an incredible job! He’s one of the sweetest and compassionate doctors/surgeons I’ve ever encountered. He made me feel incredibly comfortable and relieved, putting all my anxieties to rest. I underwent a transaxillary breast augmentation, and I’m thrilled with the results. All of my friends and family are blown away by my outcome. I have a new sense of confidence that has changed my life. While I was in my recovery room, Dr. Moradian not only took care of me but also spoke to my family and answered all their questions. He exudes a sense of safety and ensures that you receive the best possible outcomes. He took the time to personally check up on me and kindly encouraged me to reach out to him. Dr. Moradian genuinely cares about your concerns and takes the time to explain everything in detail. I am so fortunate to have found him!
Simon was phenomenal. I decided at age 16 to gauge my ears and stretched them far beyond the point of them closing on their own. I am getting married and wanted to be able to wear regular earrings for the first time in 20 years. Simon came to rescue after I was quoted waaaaay too much from another surgeon that basically wanted to cut my ears that day without letting them heal on their own and told me he could inject them with filler after they healed (like, WHAT?) Simon was so thorough and patient during our consultation and even more so during the actual procedure. He let my ears close naturally for a while to avoid removing too much tissue so they would look normal and healthy after they healed. EVERYONE is shocked (including me) that they look so good. You would never know that I had enormous holes in my ears for 20 years. 10/10 recommend for any procedure.
Dr. Schierle and his team are THE BEST!! I got breast augmentation on January 9th. It’s Perfect! Love my new look! I feel more confidence now than before. Thank you again for your best work.
Had DCF rhinoplasty with Dr. Schierle, Dr. Moradian, and Monica in Dec of 2024. Definitely THE best experience I had ! The consultation was personalized, you could tell they are some of the best surgeons in the game. I never had any surgeries, so I was very nervous. But they made the process so smooth. I loved the results so much. They kept my natural beauty and elevated the new nose to complement my face better. Even some of my close friends wanted to book a consultation with them after seeing my new nose! 100000/10 recommend!
Amazing experience with Robyn for all of my injection and skincare needs! The staff is amazing and highly skilled. The entire staff is super welcoming and warm. I always recommend to my friends and family!
