Laser Hair Removal
The
following paragraphs summarize
the work of affordable laser hair
removal experts who are
completely familiar with all the
aspects of removing unwanted hair
with laser technology. Heed their
advice to avoid any surprises
when you are ready to get rid of
bikini hair.
Laser hair
removal is one of the newest
cosmetic procedures available
today. The process is to
permanently remove hair from any
part of your body that you wish
by the use of a light at a
designated wavelength, which is
projected into the skin by way of
a laser hand held
instrument.

What
the laser accomplishes,
after it's reached into
the interior of the
skin, is to focus on the
hair's pigment. The
laser destroys the
follicle of the hair but
does not damage the
remaining hair tissue
around it.
While
laser hair removal can
be quite effective and
has been so for many, it
is new, and, as compared
with older hair removal
treatments, relatively
untested.
What
this means is that we
really don't know yet
just how safe or unsafe
it might be and the
potential for side
effects.

The other
issue with the newness of this
laser hair removal process is
that no one has used it for long
enough to have continuity of
statistics that would indicate
the rate of response to the laser
hair removal treatment and the
rate at which the hair grows back
after each laser hair removal
treatment.
Hopefully
the information presented so far
has been applicable. You might
also want to consider the
following:
Two of the
most important elements to
consider in qualifying potential
laser hair removal candidates are
skin color and hair color.
1.
Skin Color. Light skin
makes laser hair removal easier
to perform. Due to the lighter
pigmentation, the laser hair
removal results happen more
quickly. Fewer treatments are
required, and better, faster
results are obtained. People with
darker skin can be treated, but
results are slower. They just
have to be content with the
knowledge that it will take
longer to see results and a
greater number of treatments are
probably going to be
needed.
2.
Hair Color. Laser hair
removal works best on dark hair.
The reason for the difference is
the pigment pheomelanin, which is
found only in red or blonde hair.
It is very hard for a laser to
penetrate pheomelanin. On the
other hand, the laser goes easily
through eumelanin, the pigment
found in black and brown
hair.
Treatment
costs can add up to more than
$1,000 as multiple treatment
sessions may be necessary to
obtain optimal results. This is
largely due to the fact that
laser hair removal is most
effective for hair which is in
the anagen phase (the growth
phase).
Since hair
grows in cycles, not all of the
hairs are in the anagen phase at
any given time. Thus, more
sessions are necessary to target
hairs while they are in
anagen.
How much
and how long an individual
respond to complete hair removal
by laser hair removal differ from
case to case.
So, no hair
removal clinics can guarantee
100% permanent results by a
certain period. Consumers are
nevertheless well advised, to
consult with licensed
professional and reputable laser
hair removal centers.
If you've
picked some pointers about laser
hair removal that you can put
into action, then by all means,
do so. You won't really be able
to gain any benefits from your
new knowledge if you don't use
it.
