Why Use EMS for Laser Hair Removal with Athena Ice Technology

Advanced, Medical-Grade Permanent Hair Reduction at Seymour Health Centre

Experience smoother skin with the Athena Ice Laser by Incredible Devices. Our clinic provides a physician-led approach to hair removal, combining state-of-the-art technology with the highest standards of clinical safety.

 What is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive medical treatment that uses focused light energy to target hair follicles. The energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, generating controlled heat that disrupts the follicle’s ability to regrow—all while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed.

 Why Choose the Athena Ice Laser?

Unlike traditional lasers that can be uncomfortable, the Athena Ice system is designed for a premium patient experience.

  • Integrated “Ice” Cooling: Built-in technology protects the skin surface and minimizes heat sensation.
  • Medical-Grade Precision: A powerful platform designed for safety across a wide range of skin types.
  • Efficiency: Fast treatment times with consistent, long-term results.
  • Physician Oversight: All treatments are performed by trained professionals under the guidance of Dr. Tatiana Cardoso.

 Safety & Candidacy

The Athena Ice Laser is safe for a broad spectrum of skin tones. During your consultation, we will assess your skin type, hair characteristics, and medical history to ensure optimal settings.

 Ideal Candidates Are Looking For:

  • A permanent alternative to shaving, waxing, or threading.
  • A solution for painful, recurrent ingrown hairs.
  • A non-invasive treatment with immediate return to daily activities.

Contraindications:

Treatment may not be suitable for those with active skin infections, recent sunburns, pregnancy, or those taking certain photosensitizing medications (e.g., Accutane).

 Patient Care: Pre & Post Treatment

To ensure the best results and protect your skin, please follow these clinical guidelines:

Before Your Appointment

  • Shave the Area: Please shave 24 hours before your visit (not immediately before).
  • Avoid the Sun: No direct sun exposure or tanning (including sprays) for 2 weeks.
  • No Plucking/Waxing: Stop waxing or threading 4 weeks prior; the follicle must be intact.
  • Product Check: Stop using Retinoids, Glycolic Acid, or harsh exfoliants 5–7 days before.
  • Clean Skin: Arrive with no lotions, deodorants, or makeup on the treatment area.

After Your Appointment

  • Keep it Cool: Avoid hot showers, saunas, and intense exercise for 24–48 hours.
  • Sun Protection: Apply SPF 30+ daily. Avoid direct sun for 2 weeks.
  • Be Gentle: Do not scrub or pick the treated area. Hair will shed naturally over 1–3 weeks.
  • Maintenance: You may shave between sessions, but do not wax or pluck.
