A Hairy Situation – Are you bothered by too much or too little of it?

Everyone is unique when it comes to hair growth – or lack thereof. Some people have too much hair in all the wrong places while others have too little hair in all the right places. Dr. Lupo and Dr. Souyoul rely on cutting-edge technology to treat patients on both ends of the spectrum.

Too Much Hair

Having unwanted hair can be burdensome and embarrassing, and hair removal methods such as shaving, plucking or waxing are only temporary. With summer approaching, patients are turning to laser hair removal as a permanent fix. With the most state-of-the-art lasers, hair removal at the Lupo Center is better than ever – offering a safe and effective solution for all skin and hair types on any part of the body.

Treatments, performed by a trained and certified laser technician under the supervision of our board certified dermatologists, are spaced out over several weeks to ensure the laser treats the hair in an active growth cycle. Most patients get optimal result in three to seven sessions, depending on the hair’s response to treatment and the thickness of the hair. Since laser hair removal specifically targets hair, the surrounding skin remains unharmed. It is recommended that patients not tan in the sun or spray tan before or during treatments because the tanned skin, which is not the body’s natural color, can hinder the absorption of the laser light energy into the hair follicle.

Too Little Hair

Comb-overs, wigs, extensions, microfiber hair bonds, scalp dying… the list goes on for measures people are taking to cover their thinning hair. If you suffer from hair loss and aren’t satisfied by your current strategy to hide it, we can help! Combining PRP scalp injections and Nutrafol healthy hair supplements can provide natural hair growth for a thicker appearance.

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injections stimulate dormant hair follicles to help them begin producing hair. PRP involves withdrawing a patient’s own blood, processing it so that only the enriched PRP cells remain and injecting those cells into the scalp. PRP contains essential proteins that stimulate natural hair growth. New growth occurs after one session, but for a thicker appearance, treatments are continued based on the patient’s needs and desires. PRP therapy is very safe since the injection material is derived from the patient’s own body and there are no foreign materials used.

NUTRAFOL is a daily dietary supplement to naturally help grow and thicken hair from within. Using the latest biotechnology, NUTRAFOL is formulated with patented, standardized and clinically-tested ingredients. The components of the vitamin act to reduce the effects of stress on the body especially as it relates to hair loss.

Laser Treatment For Men And Women Eliminates Unwanted Hair

Shaving, bleaching, plucking, waxing, or trimming unwanted or excessive hair on your face or body may grow tiresome over time and may irritate your skin. That’s why we have been offering safe and effective laser hair reduction treatment for men and women since 1999.

How laser hair removal works

One of the most popular laser treatments, hair reduction and removal allows you to put away the creams, razors, and tweezers for good. Light energy targets the pigments in each hair. As the light is absorbed, it creates heat energy, which eliminates the hair follicle and stops hair growth.

To prepare for the procedure, patients are asked to refrain from waxing or plucking hairs so that the hair is present in the follicle. Shaving immediately before the treatment maximizes the effectiveness of the laser, allowing the laser energy to penetrate into the follicle to heat and destroy it.

Who is a candidate for laser hair removal?

Laser hair reduction works best on patients who wish to remove darker hairs. Because the laser focuses on pigmentation, grey, blonde, or white hairs are not responsive to treatment. Laser hair reduction effectively removes undesired hair on the face, chin, neck, back, underarm, legs, and bikini area.

How many treatments are needed?

Treatments vary by patient, pigmentation, and thickness of hair to be removed. Hair grows in cycles so the procedure is typically scheduled to address each new growth cycle for optimal results.
