B8 THE OAKVILLE BEAVER Wednesday, May 17, 2000 m 0 4 }om en Q ^n Acupuncture Lynne C. Ganong, B.Math, DAc. m in e s Treating Oakville women for 15 years Dr. Cynthia Blair has been practising in Oakville for the past 15 years. In th at tim e, she has delivered over 2,000 babies and has concentrated her time in w om ens health care. Dr. Blair also offers cosmetic services as part o f her continuing objective to help w omen achieve their physical and emotional goals. "W om en feel it inside when they don't like w hat they see outside," com ments Dr. Blair. "N ow we have medical help to improve their self-image." As her client base is aging, she has noticed that there is less need for her obstetric services, and has made more services available. O n e o f which is the new LightSheerTM D iode Laser for hair removal needs. Now, there is a better solution for unw anted hair... as a w oman, you may be surprised to learn that just about your entire body is covered w ith hair. Because m ost o f the hair is fine and pale, it usually isn't visible to the naked eye. In fact, you may be surprised to know that the largest num ber o f hair follicles is actually on your forehead. But when darker, coarser hair appears in places we don't like or expect - like on the face, neck, abdom en, breasts, or arms --or prevents us from wearing a high-cut bathing suit, shorts, or even a short skirt, it may be tim e to consider hair removal w ith the LightSheerTM D iode Laser.The new L ightSheerTM D iode Laser, a state-of-the-art system specially designed to remove unw anted hair faster, less painfully, and more reliably than electrolysis. Understanding laser treatm ent: T he light em itted by the LightSheerTM D iode Laser is absorbed by the pigment located in hair follicles. T he laser pulses for a fraction o f a second just long enough to vaporize the pigment, disabling several follicles at a time to eliminate or significantly impede the hair's regrowth. Im portantly, LightSheer's special contact-cooling hand-piece is perfect for a w omen's sensitive skin. It directs the laser energy to the hair root while protecting and cooling the surrounding skin. W hat you can expect: T h e length o f a laser session may be a few m inutes to an hour or more, depending on the size o f the area being treated. Because the laser tends to treat hair follicles that are in an active growth phase, more than one treatm ent may be required to disable hair follicles that subsequently enter this growth phase. Laser treatm ent itself may cause a slight tingling sensation. M ost patients tolerate the procedure well. But because some areas o f the body are more sensitive than others, topical anaesthesia is always available. T he appearance o f the treated area immediately after a laser session will vary from patient to patient depending on the extent o f treatm ent and skin type. Immediate after-effects, if any, are minor. T hey may include redness and swelling, which disappear in a short time. M ost people return to normal activity right away. .
