Shaving Bumps No More!

Why is Lyra The Best Solution For Pseudo-Folliculitis (Shaving
Bumps)?
The Lyra is the first laser FDA cleared for hair removal in all skin types. Lyra is the first and only treatment
FDA cleared for the treatment of shaving bumps. Prior to Lyra, dark complected and tanned patients could not be
treated with a laser due to the high absorbency of light in the pigment of the skin. Lyra's low absorption in pigment
makes it an ideal and safe treatment, achieving outstanding results while maintaining the normal appearance
of the skin. |

Introducing the new Lyra Laser Treatment
of Pseudo-Folliculitis
New technology attacks unwanted hair growth
in a revolutionary way!
|
How Does Lyra Work For Shaving Bumps?
Lyra laser beam passes through the skin and is absorbed in the hair follicle residing underneath the skin's
surface. The laser energy destroys the follicle with the heat it generates. Destroyed hairs are then either dissolved
within the skin or ejected by the body. |

What Should I Expect During Treatment?
Most patients experience a stinging or burning sensation when a laser pulse is delivered. While general anesthesia
will not be required, a topical anesthetic may be applied to sensitive skin. To further reduce discomfort, Lyra
utilizes a special patented cooling system that lowers the temperature of the skin at the treatment site before,
during and after laser exposure. |

What Should I Expect After Treatment?
After treatment with Lyra, you may return to your regular routine immediately. Some patients may experience
a slight reddening around the hair follicles immediately following treatment. This reaction typically disappears
within a few minutes.
It may seem that the hair continues to grow for a period of one or two weeks after laser treatment, but in fact,
these hairs are actually lifeless and are simply being cast out of your body. |

How Many Treatments Will Be Needed?
Laser treatment impairs the growth of hair follicles when they are in the growth cycle at the time of treatment.
All hair follicles are not active at the same time. Depending upon the growth cycle of the follicles when the treatment
is applied, multiple treatments, spaced a few weeks apart, may be required to obtain the overall desired effect. |

"After only a couple of treatments I have noticed dramatic
reductions in the facial hair areas. Shaving is much easier now and faster. The constant itching and scratching
is totally gone and I have a renewed sense of confidence about my appearance".

What Is Pseudo-Folliculitis?
Pseudo-folliculitis (PF), commonly known as shaving bumps, is an inflammatory condition, widespread among individuals
with thick curly hair. As the hair grows out of the skin, it curls and re-enters the skin. The skin reacts to it
as a foreign object and becomes inflamed and irritated, creating bumps and discoloration. Often hairs start curling
even before growing out of the skin, creating in-grown hairs. the bumps become quite large, causing discomfort
to the patient.
Sometimes relief can be achieved with the use of topical steroids and exfoliating agents. Growing hair is sometimes
curative as well. More commonly though, the ingrown hair is pulled out after each shaving session. Although this
is a solution, it can be painful and time consuming. Allow us to show you a far better method, using the Lyra!
