HOW DOES HAIR REMOVAL BY LASER WORK?
Laser hair removal works by sending a beam of laser light to a group of hair follicles with enough powrer to disable or destroy the root, but not enought power to harm the surrounding skin. This process is called selective photothermolysis. It is selective because it targets only the hair and not the skin. The surrounding skin is usually cooled. Some methods include a gel, a spray or a cooling tip.
The laser beam finds the hair follicles by targeting the substance that gives skin and hair dark colour - melanin. Therefore, the ideal candidate for laser has dark hair and light skin.
Hair removal by laser is not electrolysis. Electrolysis is a method of removing individual hairs one one at a time by directing an electric current into each hair follicle. Laser hair removal is the modern day method of destroying massive amounts of hair follicles with a simple trigger pull.

WILL LASER HAIR REMOVAL HURT?
If you are considering laser hair removal for a specific part of your body, this is probably the first question that entered your mind. The level of pain from laser hair removal depends on the patient and that person's skin and hair type. Typically, the treatment tends to hurt less for people with lighter skin tones and finer hair. Most people however, tolerate laser hair removal well.
In the case the patient is uncomfortable, the laser technician offers topical anesthetic that numbs the sin or ice packs. A cool laser tip, gel or spray is always used to increase comfort of the laser hair removal treatment.
Laser hair removal clinics usually offer free consultations and will perform spot tests so you can see how laser hair removal feels.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
Everyone will need at least three treatments for good results, becasue while all hair is temporarily disabled during each treatment, not all hair is destroyed. A series of treatments is necessary to allow results to accumulate. Most people do not need to continue beyond six treatments.
HOW FAST IS LASER HAIR REMOVAL?
The greatest advantage of laser is speed of treatment i conjunction with long lasting results. So it is especially great for large ares such as backs, or legs when compared to electrolysis, which is permanent, but excruciantingly slow for large areas.
A back with laser only takes one hour, while a full back with electrolysis usually takes 125 hours. Another advantage of laser is that if hairs do grow back, they are typically finer in texture.
Laser hair removal is the most practical, least painful, most efficient, and probably least expensive professional method available to remove unwanted hair.
IS IT SAFE?
Yes. The laser was developed from years of research. The laser parameters were carefully defined to inhibit regrowth by studying the anatomy of the hair follicle and matching the laser light and pulse duration to the follicle size, depth, and location to safely and effectively remove hair.
