Laser Hair Removal
The disposal of superfluous hair is currently one of the
foremost accepted cosmetic treatments, for both women and a
soaring number of men. In addition to the ordinary and often
temporary methods, employing shavers, waxing kits and
electrolysis, the more high-tech procedures such as intense
pulsed light and laser systems are becoming increasingly
popular.
although superfluous hair is chiefly believed to be a cosmetic
problem. It should be remembered that women every now and again
have supplementary hair growth during both pregnancy and
menopause. Additionally there are some diseases that have above
average hair growth as a characteristic, but they are less
common.
Dermatologists are continuing with their investigation into why
this approach works but it appears that the laser creates heat
damage to the hair follicle checking the growth of the
particular strand of hair. This happens as a result of the laser
being converted into heat as it travels through the skin and
being absorbed into the target, the pigment melanin, that is
found in the hair follicle. When the temperature reaches a high
enough level in a hair follicle during its active period, the
targeted hair properties are disabled, thus checking hair
re-growth.
The results vary but in clinical trials periods of up to two
years have been achieved before hair growth restarted.
Laser hair removal is a relatively gentle process it does not
need chemical preparations or painful scraping or injections, it
can be used on large areas of the body in a single treatment
session.
Laser hair removal today is a very effective method of treatment
for unwanted hair, ongoing research continues to improve the
process. The ultimate goal is to achieve permanent removal of
hair but this has not been achieved yet.
