Permanent Hair Removal with Sciton Forever Bare BBL™
At Invigue Medical Aesthetics & Wellness, we offer cutting-edge laser treatments, including hair removal with the Sciton Forever Bare BBL system. This state-of-the-art treatment uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to effectively reduce hair and inhibit future growth. Forever Bare can treat hair on various areas of the body, including the legs, arms, abdomen, back, bikini line, chin, and neck.
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Forever Bare uses precise light energy to gently heat and destroy hair follicles while protecting the surrounding skin. The BBL device delivers even and accurate coverage, making it an efficient option for both small and large treatment areas.
Preparing for Laser Hair Removal
Before your Forever Bare treatment, be sure to follow these preparation guidelines:
- Avoid waxing, threading, or using depilatories for 6 weeks before treatment (shaving is okay).
- Avoid sun exposure and discontinue sunless tanning products for 4 weeks prior to treatment.
- Stop using exfoliating products, like glycolic acid or retinol, one week before treatment.
What to Expect During Laser Hair Removal
One of the key benefits of Forever Bare is its sapphire-plated handpiece, which cools the skin to ensure your comfort. You may feel a warming sensation, often compared to a hot stone massage. Treatment times vary depending on the area, but most sessions take under 20 minutes, making it quicker than many traditional laser systems.
Recovery After Laser Hair Removal
There is no downtime with Forever Bare treatments, and you can resume regular activities immediately. Some mild redness or swelling may occur but usually resolves within a few hours. We will give you aftercare instructions, and it’s very important to avoid sun exposure on the treated areas.
Candidates for Laser Hair Removal
Forever Bare BBL is a suitable option for most people who want to reduce or eliminate unwanted hair. Laser hair removal is often most effective for individuals with dark hair and with lighter skin tones. However, Forever Bare’s advanced technology allows it to be used on those with darker skin tones (up to Fitzpatrick Type V). Unfortunately, laser treatments do not work on blonde hair.

Yes, laser hair removal is safe when performed by an experienced provider. Common side effects, such as redness or irritation, are temporary.
Once a hair follicle is destroyed, it won’t regrow hair. However, laser hair removal is often referred to as “laser hair reduction” because hair regrowth can occur from follicles that were in the resting phase during your treatment. This is why multiple sessions are recommended to achieve the best results.
Yes! Many men choose laser hair removal to eliminate unwanted hair on the chest, back, or other areas.
