The hair goes through three different cycles of growth. The first phase is called the anagen phase, which is the active growth phase, and is the phase where laser hair removal is effective. The second phase is called the catagen phase, which is the shedding phase. The last phase is called the telogen phase, or the dormant phase. 

The duration of each cycle is highly unique to each person and area of the body. At InHype Sanctuary, we will customize your laser hair removal treatment intervals to target your unique hair cycle to assure that your treatments are occurring during the anagen phase or the best results.

Laser Hair Removal vs. Waxing

Laser hair removal and waxing are two extremely popular ways to remove unwanted body hair. However, they work in different ways and provide different results. Laser hair removal uses a laser light to remove unwanted hair, and results are long-lasting. Waxing uses hard or soft wax to remove hair from the root, and results are temporary. Both are great options to enjoy smooth, hair-free skin.
