If you're not happy with shaving, tweezing, or waxing to remove unwanted hair, laser hair removal is worth considering.
Laser hair removal isn’t just ''zapping'' unwanted hair. It is a medical procedure that requires training to perform.
Laser hair removal is one of the most commonly done cosmetic procedures in the U.S.
Highly concentrated beams of light are sent into hair follicles. Pigment in the follicles absorb the light. This destroys the hair.
If you are planning to undergo laser hair removal, you should limit plucking, waxing, & electrolysis for 6 weeks before treatment. That's because the laser targets the hairs' roots, which are temporarily removed by waxing or plucking.
Benefits of laser hair removal include:
🔸Precision: Lasers can selectively target dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged.
🔸Speed: Each pulse of the laser takes a fraction of a second & can treat many hairs at the same time. The laser can treat an area approximately the size of a quarter every second. Small areas such as the upper lip can be treated in less than a minute, and large areas, such as the back or legs, may take up to an hour.
🔸Predictability: Most patients have permanent hair loss after an average of three to seven sessions.
