Laser Hair Removal Treatment

What is ?
Well, is a process that involves burning the hair follicle with a laser to halt its ability to produce hair. The entire process doesn’t really take that much time, but usually multiple treatments will be required in order to be 100% effective.
When a skilled technician performs , he will take extreme caution. He will have to leave the laser on each hair just long enough to produce enough heat to make the hair stop growing, while not leaving in there too long. If a technician left the laser on the hair for too long, it can damage the underlying skin. This would cause problems with the skin’s pigmentation and growth process.
Since the process is quite tricky, experience will make a huge difference in a doctor/technician’s ability to remove unwanted hair properly without doing unnecessary damage. Hopefully you can see why it would be extremely unwise to go to a technician that had little experience.
Normally when hair removal treatment is performed with a laser, three to five treatments will be required to get it right. The exact amount will depend heavily on the thickness and color of the patient’s hair. There will be times when some maintenance will be required, and this will of course vary wildly from person to person.
