Shaving, waxing, and threading are time-consuming, temporary, and often irritating. Our Colorado Springs team offers permanent laser hair reduction with Triton Laser so you can stop managing unwanted hair and start forgetting it was ever there.
Understanding Your Concern
Most traditional hair removal methods share the same limitation: they remove the hair, but they leave the follicle that produces it completely intact.
Shaving cuts the hair shaft at the skin surface, which is why regrowth appears within days. Waxing pulls the hair out from the root, which does take longer to grow back, typically three to six weeks, but again the follicle itself is untouched and fully capable of producing new hair through the next growth cycle. The hair always comes back because nothing has changed at the source.
Laser hair removal works differently. It delivers targeted laser energy into the follicle, where it’s selectively absorbed by the melanin pigment in the hair. That absorbed energy converts to heat, which permanently damages the follicle’s ability to produce new hair. The follicle doesn’t regrow.
Because hair grows in cycles, and laser energy can only affect follicles that are in the active growth phase at the time of treatment, a series of sessions spaced across those cycles is needed to achieve comprehensive reduction across the entire treatment area. Most patients find that after completing a full course of treatment, regrowth is dramatically reduced and, in many areas, eliminated entirely.
Shaving, waxing, and threading remove the hair without damaging the follicle. The follicle remains intact and produces new hair within days to weeks.
Hair follicles cycle through growth, transition, and rest phases. Laser energy only affects follicles in the active growth phase making multiple sessions necessary to catch all follicles.
Laser hair removal targets melanin in the hair follicle. This is why it works best on darker hair and requires different wavelength considerations for different skin tones.
Treatment Results Last Long-Term
The number of sessions needed depends on the treatment area, hair colour, skin tone, and how your hair grows. Dr. Dunham and his team will walk you through what to expect and put together a realistic plan for achieving lasting results.
Permanent hair reduction for all skin types and body areas.

Laser hair removal permanently reduces the number of active hair follicles in the treated area.
Most patients achieve 80 to 90 percent reduction after a full series of 6 to 8 sessions.
Some fine or lighter hairs may remain or regrow over time and occasional maintenance sessions can address these.
Triton’s three-wavelength system treats a broader range of skin tones than single-wavelength lasers.
However patients with very dark skin tones or very light gray or blonde hair should discuss candidacy with Dr. Dunham and his team before booking a series.
Most patients need 6 to 8 sessions to achieve optimal permanent reduction.
Sessions are spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart depending on the treatment area and hair growth cycle for that area.
Most patients describe the sensation as a brief warmth and mild snap with each pulse.
Triton’s built-in cooling system keeps treatment comfortable throughout.
Discomfort varies by body area with more sensitive areas like the bikini line typically feeling more intense.
Pricing depends on the treatment area and number of sessions.
We offer package pricing and financing through our partners.
