Laser Hair Removal Benefits
Laser hair removal is best in taking out unwanted hair along
the leg, arm, underarm, face, bikini lines and other areas in the body. In
comparison to other hair removal method, laser has a number of benefits that
anyone will appreciate.
Lasers are efficient in targeting dark and coarse hair,
leaving smooth surrounding skin undamaged. Each pulse takes only a fraction of
a second, but can affect many hairs at the same time. Upper lip treatment can
take less than a minute for the treatment to be completed. Larger areas like
the leg or back will take less than an hour. Lastly, laser hair removal is
effective in removing hair permanently. Up to 90% of patients who used this
method do not experience regrowth after 3 to 5 sessions.
What To Expect During Each Session
Before each procedure, you will need to undergo hair
treatment which will trim your hair so that only a few millimiters is left. The
laser equipment will then be adjusted according to your specific hair type.
Information like color, thickness, and location of the treatment area will all
be considered. You and your technician may be required to use protective
eyewear during the treatment. In addition, a cool jelly will be applied to your
skin so the laser will be able to penetrate into the follicles better.
For first time sessions, the technician will first observe
if your skin will have adverse reaction to the treatment. Once the procedure is
completed, you may use ice packs and anti-flammatory
creams to reduce discomfort.
Things To Remember When Choosing A Treatment Center
It is important that you choose a treatment center wisely.
Remember, laser hair removal is a regulated procedure, it may still cause
plenty of damage to your body if the technician is not well trained. Not all
laser hair removal tools and treatment are the same, ask your spa or treatment
center if it will be effective on your skin and hair type. Check out laser hair
