What is Laser Hair Removal and How Does It Work?

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive procedure designed to permanently reduce hair growth on the face and body.

Through a process known as photothermolysis, the treatment delivers concentrated light-based energy to hair follicles.

In doing so, laser hair removal overheats and destroys follicles and prevents further hair growth.

What Areas Can Be Treated with Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal in 2019 can be performed on virtually any part of the face and body.

Popular treatment areas include: Bikini, underarms, arms, legs, back, chest, abdomen, neck, lip, and chin. 

What Are the Benefits of Laser Hair Removal in 2019?

Many women and men will elect to undergo laser hair removal in 2019 for the benefit of long-term hair reduction, which will save them time and money.

Additionally, the treatment minimizes ingrown hairs, rashes, and razor burn and reveals smoother, softer skin in the targeted area.

How Many Sessions Are Recommended?

While the number of recommended treatments can vary from patient to patient, most individuals can experience up to a 90-95 percent reduction following a series of eight sessions.

Ideally, these appointments are to be scheduled six-to-eight weeks apart.

Does Laser Hair Removal Hurt?

Thanks to technological advancements, laser hair removal in 2019 is an extremely quick and comfortable procedure.

Sessions can often be completed in five-to-10 minutes and may feel similar to a rubberband lightly snapping against the skin.

Can Laser Hair Removal Be Used on All Skin and Hair Types?

Laser hair removal is well-suited for all skin and hair types, except for white hair, gray hair, or very light blond hair.

That’s because these hair types lack sufficient melanin to produce desired effects.
