LASER HAIR REMOVAL FAQ
Check out our laser hair removal page to learn the basics about this permanent, FDA-approved hair removal treatment. You can also visit our blog for more in-depth information and interesting facts about laser hair removal and other beauty treatments!
Results are unique to each individual. Most of our clients achieve the results they want within 6 to 12 laser treatments, but it may be more or less.
Laser hair removal hurts less than most other forms of hair removal, especially waxing. Our clients are often surprised to discover the treatment is much more painless than they expected! Many describe the sensation as similar to a snap of a tiny rubber band. All of our machines are equipped with a cooling feature that eases the sting immediately after each laser pulse.
At SEV, we use both Nd:YAG and Alexandrite laser hair removal technologies, allowing us to effectively treat customers regardless of skin tone.
For best results, make sure to come in every 4 to 6 weeks. This allows us to maximize your results while keeping your skin in great shape.
We use state-of-the-art laser equipment like the Candela GentleMax Pro and Cynosure Elite IQ. These cutting-edge machines are equipped with Alexandrite and Nd:YAG laser technologies, to effectively treat all customers regardless of skin type.
Yes! In fact, we require that you shave your treatment area 24-48 hours before your appointment. After your treatment, allow your skin a few days to calm down before shaving again.
Laser hair removal is approved by the FDA as a permanent hair reduction method. Most of our clients report complete or significant permanent reduction in hair growth after their treatments. In specific cases, fluctuating hormones can stimulate regrowth, in which case we recommend coming in for a touch-up.
Prior to laser hair removal, the most important thing is to avoid sun exposure and tanning for at least two weeks prior to your appointment. Take good care of your skin, avoid using harsh or exfoliating skincare products, and make sure to shave a day before your appointment. Please check out our customer care page for complete instructions.
Full body means just that. We’ll treat any part of your body where you would like to eliminate hair, including the face, legs, arms, underarms, bikini or Brazilian area, neck, chest, and more!
DERMAL FILLERS /INJECTABLES FAQ
All of the dermal fillers we use include lidocaine to numb the area and reduce pain. While you may feel the sting of the needle initially, the pain subsides quickly. Your treated area might feel tender for a few days following your treatment.
Dermal fillers are ideal for plumping up and adding volume to the lips, cheeks, nasolabial folds, undereyes, chin, and jawline. We’ll recommend the ideal filler for you based on your target area and desired results.
This depends on the type of filler and how your body metabolizes the hyaluronic acid. While most of the fillers we use last for up to 9 months, they start to lose their volume a little earlier.
Not necessarily! While swelling and bruising are common, temporary side effects, some of our clients don’t experience them at all.
Yes. Dermal filler can be dissolved with a simple injection of dissolver. That said, we still recommend you take your time to consider whether filler is right for you and how you’d like it to look. Constantly dissolving and re-injecting filler can lead to undesirable results.
Please avoid laser hair removal for at least two weeks before and after getting injectables.
Juvederm. Dissolver. Restylane. Restylane kysse. Voluma. Volbella. Kybella. BOTOX.
The Juvéderm range includes a lot of different products with different longevity. Depending on the filler, you can expect results to last anywhere from 6 to 18 months. In general, we recommend coming in at least yearly for touch-ups.
One syringe of Juvéderm holds 1 ml which is equal to 1/5th of a teaspoon. Have a look at the service menu above to see the precise cost depending on the Juvéderm product and SEV location.
The results from Kybella are very long-lasting, even with weight gain.
Kybella doesn’t simply melt fat, but it destroys the cells that store fat. This actively prevents the future accumulation of fat under the chin. Once you achieve the results you want, you can expect them to last for years and decades to come
No. Kybella is not considered a filler because it doesn’t add volume. Instead, it’s an injectable treatment that reduces the appearance of a double chin.
Restylane results can last up to 18 months, depending on the Restylane product, treatment area, and other factors.
Juvéderm Voluma is one of the longest-lasting hyaluronic acid fillers on the market. Its results can last for up to 2 years, although this also varies from person to person. We recommend coming in after a year for a touch-up.
Juvéderm Volbella is one of the most long-lasting lip fillers, with results usually lasting for 9 to 12 months. This is especially impressive compared to Juvéderm Ultra XC, which often requires a touch-up after 6 months.
BOTOX FAQ
Botox is extremely effective and popular for areas with wrinkles caused by muscle contractions. That includes lines between the eyebrows, forehead wrinkles, and crow’s feet.
Botox usually takes a few days to start working. You’ll start seeing results in 3 to 7 days after the initial injection, and they’ll continue to improve until you achieve peak results around 2 weeks after the treatment.
Tenderness in the injection site is very common. You may also experience a little bit of bruising, swelling, or small bumps.
In severe situations, there’s a minor risk of side effects like paralysis or difficulty breathing and swallowing. If you experience any of these, seek medical attention immediately.
Note that these side effects are extremely uncommon. They’re more likely to occur with medical Botox than with Botox injected for cosmetic purposes.
Immediately after your Botox injection, it’s best to leave the treatment area as undisturbed as possible.
- Stay upright, and avoid bending forward or backward
- Lying down should be avoided for 4 hours after your treatment
- Don’t apply any pressure, ice packs, or massage to the treated areas
- For the first night, consider sleeping propped up on a pillow
- Avoid intense activities or exercise for 24 hours following your treatment
- Stay out of the sun, and wear sunscreen if you go outside
- Avoid using harsh and potentially irritating skincare products
- Stay hydrated, and avoid alcohol consumption
Your nurse will provide any additional aftercare guidance following your treatment.
MORPHEUS8
Morpheus8 is an incredible rejuvenating treatment that combines microneedling and radiofrequency. It transforms the skin on a very deep level, like a non-surgical facelift or body contouring treatment.
It stimulates collagen production in the underlying layers of the dermis, to encourage a natural anti-aging process. Expect tighter, smoother skin and faded wrinkles! Morpheus8 is very unique as it can penetrate 4 mm deep, resulting in the coagulation of fat tissue, for a more contoured physique.
Morpheus8 is a complete face and body treatment. We most commonly perform it on the following body parts:
- Face
- Neck
- Jawline
- Below the chin
- Chest
- Abdomen
- Buttocks
- Arms
- Legs
For best results, we normally recommend undergoing 1-5 Morpheus8 sessions. The precise number depends on your skin condition and goals.
For best results, we highly recommend purchasing a package of 3 or more treatments. While you may only need a single session initially, we recommend coming in for maintenance treatments once you see your results starting to fade.
You will begin to see some improvement in your skin just a few days after your treatment. As time passes, your skin will continue to improve thanks to increased collagen production, with the most noticeable results showing around the 3-week mark. That said, you will probably continue to see improvement in your skin for 3 months after your treatment.
For best results, we recommend coming in for Morpheus8 treatments once every 4-6 weeks.
Fractionated radiofrequency is deeply-penetrating energy that heats the skin. It’s scientifically proven to reduce wrinkles, stimulate tissue constriction, and rebuild collagen, for firmer, younger-looking skin. The combination of fractionated radiofrequency and microneedling amplifies the power of both technologies, creating truly stunning results.
We recommend waiting at least 24-48 hours after your Morpheus8 treatment before applying makeup.
Although Morpheus8 uses needles, it’s not usually painful. We will provide you with a topical numbing cream approximately 45-60 minutes prior to your treatment to ensure you’re as comfortable as possible.
FORMA
Also known as the “red carpet facial”, Forma is a gentle and non-invasive treatment for tightening the skin. It combines heat and radiofrequency to stimulate improved collagen production, therefore lifting, tightening, and contouring skin.
Most clients see immediate tightening effects from Forma, which is why it’s so popular as a pre-event facial. For lasting and dramatic results, we recommend coming in for at least 5 or 6 sessions.
Forma is fantastic as a one-off treatment when you want an immediate skin-tightening effect. For pronounced, lasting results, we recommend coming in for at least 5 or 6 sessions, followed by yearly maintenance sessions.
If you’re experiencing an increase in skin laxity and loss of tone, Forma might be for you! It’s gentle and non-invasive, so it’s a safe choice for all skin types. That said, for customers hoping for a more dramatic skin-firming or renewing effect, you may benefit from a more intensive treatment like Morpheus8 or Potenza.
Have a look at our Customer Care section to learn more about pre-treatment procedures and contraindications.
Not at all. The Forma device is pleasantly warm, and the treatment is often compared to a relaxing hot stone massage.
Forma is safe anywhere on the body, but we like it best for the face, neck, and chest. We tend to focus on lifting the jawline, jowls, nasolabial fold, eyes, eyebrows, forehead, and neck.
EVOLVE (TRIM TITE TONE)
Evolve is a non-invasive hands-free treatment for body contouring. Evolve has 3 modes: Tite for skin tightening, Trim for body contouring, and Tone for muscle toning. The device is designed to remodel the skin, treat adipose tissue (fat pockets) and activate muscles all in one platform.
We include a consultation as part of every appointment. During that consultation, your practitioner will discuss your body contouring goals and suggest the best Evolve modality for you.
Evolve can be done on almost every body part, but it’s most popular for the abdomen, arms, back of the legs, buttocks, and thighs.
Not at all!
During your treatment you can just lie back and relax. We’ll make sure the applicators are comfortably positioned. At most, you may feel a slightly odd vibrating or pulsating sensation.
The Evolve system transmits energy via a system of applicators that are attached to the skin. The specific energy and mechanism of action is a little different depending on the treatment.
Tite combines radiofrequency and vacuum, to heat fat tissue that is stored below the skin. It destroys the fat cells while remodeling the skin, for total body sculpting.
Finally, Tone uses electricity to stimulate the muscles, causing them to contract repeatedly which improves definition.
Results will be seen gradually, though are reported to be noticeable after the first few treatments.
You will notice some results within just one treatment, but generally, we recommend coming in for at least 6 to 12 treatments for more dramatic body sculpting effects.
LASER SKIN TIGHTENING
We normally recommend between 3 to 5 treatments to see desired results, along with occasional touch-up sessions.
As with any anti-aging treatment, the longevity of your results depends on your genetics as well as other lifestyle factors. We recommend coming in for yearly touch-up treatments in order to maintain your skin firmness indefinitely.
Yes! Laser is able to stimulate the deeper layers of skin where collagen forms. The process encourages new and improved collagen production, for firmer, smoother, more lifted skin.
