subject: Benefits Of Laser Hair Removal [print this page] Almost our whole body is covered with hair, on our arms, legs and head. Many of this hair is not even visible, but some find darker hair which they do not want and feel sub-conscious about. If it is embarrassing, or simply bothers you, then there are other methods other than shaving and waxing which can help to remove the hair - for good.
The trouble with shaving is that it is only temporary, and the hair soon grows back usually the next day. This is time consuming for many as well as a continuous expense in the form of razors or waxing strips.
Laser hair removal has many benefits, including the fact that it is a permanent solution to unwanted body hair; a one-off expense which has permanent and long lasting effects.
Laser hair removal is basically electrolysis. This involves a very fine probe inserted into the hair follicle and allowing an electrical pulse to cauterize the hairs ability to grow. Although it sounds slightly invasive, the procedure is quick, easy and virtually painless. Patients can return to normal immediately after the treatment, making it a timely solution as well. For those with sensitive skin, the area may appear red or slightly irritable, but these effects will soon pass with moisturising.
This procedure would benefit those who need a boost in their self confidence, want to achieve smoother looking skin, want to save time and money, and generally want to improve their hair removal methods.
Laser hair removal in London has increased by 6% in the last year, showing that the procedure is growing more popular as people see the benefits of the treatment.
Although the treatment is less evasive than other cosmetic procedures, it is still classed as cosmetic surgery and therefore you will have to pass a candidate eligibility test before being allowed to book an appointment. This is for the reassurance of both yourself and your surgeon, who needs to ensure you are aware of all conditions and issues.
