How Much Do You Know About Laser Hair Removal?

The common problem both men and women face is unwanted hair on their bodies. Shaving, waxing and tweezing are the traditional ways used by both men and women to remove their unwanted hair. However, the traditional methods are not able to produce permanent results and it can only be carried out on relatively small areas.

Here comes the useful innovation which is beneficial for men and women who are facing the same problem. Laser hair removal is specially designed to remove unwanted body hair permanently using the high intensity beam of light. The particular light energy gives off a lot of heat which is directed at hair follicles to damage and stop the growing process of the hair.

During the removing procedure, the area is firstly shaved and cleaned. The doctors will then apply an anesthetic cream on the particular area. The laser which is used by the doctors produces pulsed beams of highly concentrated light ray. The light will be absorbed by the pigment located in the hair follicles and slowly damages the surrounding follicle. The affected areas will normally become red and swollen for a very short period of time right after the treatment. The sign will disappear soon. In the case of facial hair removal, wearing goggles is compulsory as eyes are very sensitive organs. Different parts of the body experience different kinds of sensation depending on the sensitivity of the skin.

The investment cost of such procedure varies, depending on the parts of body, the number of sessions required, the services given by the doctors and so on. The minimum charge is USD 100 and above. Many people opt for laser removal because they find that it is not only time saving but also cost saving in the long run as they don't need to spend much time on shaving and they also can save money on purchasing hair removal cream from time to time.

Although this hair removal procedure can be uncomfortable, it is a fairly painless process which is able to remove small and large areas of unwanted hair from the body. The duration of the process can be few minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the treatment area. The hair removal method works best to those with fair skin and dark hair. The effects are extremely obvious on coarse hair rather than fine hair. In normal circumstances, most treatments require two to three sessions for removing the unwanted hair in a particular area permanently. However, in some cases, multiple sessions are required as follow-up. This is because the hair in the treatment area will re-grow thinner with each session until virtually all the hair follicles are damaged completely. The duration of the follow up treatments is within one year.

In conclusion, this type of removal is indeed an ideal way of getting a fine and smooth skin. It is definitely safe if it is carried out by experienced doctors.
