Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is one of the recent advancement in the
cosmetic medicine field. This is a technology that continues to
be developed. For example, at this point in time laser hair
removal technology allows removing black and brown hair. It is
still very hard and many times impossible to use the laser hair
removal technology on white and red hair, but as technology
develops, more and more possibilities are opening. There are
many clinics that offer laser hair removal services and many
doctors that can tell you what the laser hair removal procedure
can do specifically for you (based on your type of hair and
skin).
In general, the laser hair removal is a medical procedure that
allows men and women to eliminate or reduce the hair coverage on
many areas of their body. Though the laser hair removal is a
method that allows for permanent hair removal, this is not done
right away. You will have to attend several laser hair removal
therapy sessions (usually five to ten sessions) during a certain
period of time (usually eight to fifteen months). Only going
through the full laser hair removal treatment will result in
long-term results. The actual number of treatments and the
overall laser hair removal treatment period will depend on the
type of your skin, hair and the type of laser used for the
procedure.
In general, the laser hair removal is the process that is used
to destroy the hair follicles without causing any damage to the
skin. You will be advised to stop waxing the skin area where you
would like to have the hair removed for the period of
approximately two months before the laser hair removal
treatment. The reason for several sessions is the fact that not
all hair follicles are destroyed. The new hair that grows after
one session is removed during the next laser hair removal
session. This process goes on until almost all hair follicles
are destroyed.
