subject: Laser Hair Removal- A Permanent Solution To Unwanted Hair [print this page] The hair is considered to be the richest ornament especially for a woman but unwanted hair is always annoying. Unwanted hair on armpits, legs, bikini line, faces or any other body part of a women or a man is always a thing of disappointment. Every individual wants to get rid of them permanently.
Earlier, there were not many techniques for permanent hair removal but now advance evolution of technology has led to the development of modern techniques. These techniques have proved to be beneficial in pain free and effective removal of unwanted hair. One such technique is laser technique.
The basic principle behind this laser technique is that hair follicles lose capacity to regrow once they are exposed to heat. This heat is generated through a single concentrated laser beam which is applied on the hair follicles. With this continuous heat, hair follicles lose their growth ability gradually. Melanin in skin or hair absorbs heat and complete the process.
During the process, first of all long hair is cut short so that they become easy to manage. After this, the appropriate laser beam is selected according to the skin and hair color. Laser beam also depends upon the thickness of the hair. For desirable results, you should follow the guidelines of your technician.
A proper examination is needed before you undergo this process. Your complete body is examined and accordingly the specialists would tell you to take it or not. Generally 3-4 sessions are recommended for it but it can vary according to your skin and hair type. Some guidelines are given by the doctors after the treatment which should be regularly followed for better results.
Laser treatment is effective for both dark skin or light hair and light skin or dark hair individuals. In the former one, skin melanin absorbs heat while in the later heat is absorbed by the hair melanin. Along with being safe and reliable, this technique causes permanent hair removal so that you are free of visiting parlors every week or every month.
Are there any side effects after laser hair reduction?
This is the most general question that arises here. You will be glad to know this is completely safe and reliable technique. As this technique works only on the particular surface, no effect is caused on other body parts. Moreover, this technique just affects the growth cycle of hair leading to permanent removal. An added benefit is that this is completely pain free. What you get is the beautiful, smooth and clean skin after the treatment.
Several other hair reduction techniques are also available in the market but I would suggest you to take any after doctors advice. However, this technique is considered safe and secure for all skin types.
