Painless laser hair removal is available in Sartell with the Motus Deka. Yes!!! It really is pain-free. No, being pain-free does not mean it is less effective.
A traditional laser hair removal machine is used in Isle. There. we use the Quanta EVO Light. All measures are taken for the most comfortable experience as possible.
Unfortunately, all lasers are unable to treat red, white, and gray hairs because they lack the necessary pigment for targeting.
Hair Cycle
Laser hair removal targets hair follicles during the active growth phase, known as the anagen phase. Hair on the body grows in cycles. Not all hair is in the same phase at the same time. This is why multiple treatment sessions are needed to achieve optimal results.
Here's an overview of the hair growth cycle in relation to laser hair removal:
1. Anagen Phase (Active Growth)
-
This is the phase where hair is actively growing and is attached to the follicle.
-
Laser hair removal is most effective during this phase because the hair is rich in melanin (pigment), which absorbs the laser's energy.
2. Catagen Phase (Transitional)
-
This is a short phase where hair stops growing and detaches from the follicle.
-
Hair in this phase is not as responsive to laser treatment because it is no longer actively growing.
3. Telogen Phase (Resting)
-
In this phase, the hair is not growing and is resting before eventually shedding.
-
Laser hair removal is less effective in this phase because the hair is not actively growing.
Why Multiple Sessions Are Needed:
Since hair grows in cycles, not all hair is in the anagen phase at the same time, multiple treatments are necessary to ensure that as many hair follicles as possible are treated while they are in the active growth phase.
Typically, laser hair removal treatments are spaced 4-8 weeks apart, allowing enough time for hair follicles to cycle through the various phases, with most people needing 6-8 sessions for optimal results.
Maintenance
Although laser hair removal can result in long-term hair reduction, maintenance sessions are often needed to ensure that any remaining or newly active hair follicles are treated. These sessions typically occur less frequently than the initial treatments (every 6-12 months, for example) but are important for maintaining smooth, hair-free skin over the long term.

Hair Cycles and Dormant FolliclesAs discussed, hair grows in cycles (anagen, catagen, telogen), and laser hair removal is most effective when the hair is in the anagen (growth) phase. Not all hair is in this phase at the same time, so multiple treatments are required to target hairs in different stages of growth. Dormant hair follicles (those in the catagen or telogen phase) may not be targeted during initial treatments. Over time, some dormant follicles may become active again, leading to new hair growth. Maintenance treatments can address these newly active follicles.
-
How do hormones affect laser hair removal?Hormones play a significant role in hair growth. Hormonal fluctuations, such as those experienced during pregnancy, menopause, or certain medical conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), can stimulate the growth of new hair or cause previously treated follicles to become active again. Understanding this can help set realistic expectations for the need for maintenance treatments.
-
Individuals Can Respond Differently to TreatmentNot everyone responds the same way to laser hair removal. Some people may have more resilient hair follicles that don’t respond as strongly to the laser, leading to some regrowth. Additionally, people with lighter hair or darker skin may need more frequent maintenance treatments, as these factors can affect the laser's ability to effectively target and disable hair follicles.
-
How do age and genetics affect laser hair removal?As people age, the body's hair growth patterns can change, and new hair growth can sometimes appear in areas previously treated. Genetic factors can also affect how well hair follicles respond to laser treatments. It's important to have realistic expectations and understand that maintenance treatments may be necessary.
-
Environmental and Lifestyle FactorsIn some cases, environmental factors or lifestyle habits may trigger new hair growth. Stress, diet, or even changes in medication can influence hair growth patterns.
Laser hair removal offers a highly effective and long-term solution to unwanted hair, with benefits including reduced risk of ingrown hairs, the convenience of eliminating the need for regular shaving or waxing, and minimal discomfort (available at the Sartell location) . While multiple sessions are required for optimal results, the long-term advantages can make it a worthwhile investment for those seeking smoother, hair-free skin.

Benefits of Laser Hair Removal
Hair Removal Process
Laser hair removal works by using concentrated light beams (lasers) to target and destroy hair follicles, preventing future hair growth.
Here's how it works step-by-step:

Laser Selection-
Our Technician choses the laser wavelength that is the best choice for your skin type.

Follicle Damage
The light energy is converted into heat, which damages the hair follicle at its root. This process, called "selective photothermolysis," targets only the hair without harming the surrounding skin.

Shedding
After the treatment, the hair will eventually shed naturally over a period of days or weeks, as the damaged follicles stop producing hair.
