Laser hair removal targets individual hairs to destroy them and stop their future regrowth, typically taking less than one minute for small regions such as the upper lip or an hour for large surfaces such as back or legs.
Treatment for eyelash loss is relatively pain-free; patients have reported it feeling similar to a rubber band snapping, although we offer topical anesthetic for sensitive areas.
Safety
Laser hair removal is an efficient, painless solution to unwanted hair growth. Light energy from a laser heats up pigment in hair follicles to destroy them and stop future growth; results of treatment are typically permanent. Before opting for this procedure however, one should keep certain key points in mind before making his/her decision.
At the start of a laser hair removal procedure, a cooling gel or topical anesthetic will be applied to the treatment area in order to minimize discomfort while increasing the effectiveness of heat-producing light energy from laser beams. Once directed through skin layers to reach hair follicles, heat from laser damages them so as to stop future hair growth – the number of hair follicles destroyed depends on both your color and thickness as well as area being treated.
The FDA estimates that electrolysis can reduce unwanted hair by around 70%; however, some will still regrowth due to hair’s natural cycle of resting, shedding and growing phases; this regrowth usually has less noticeable and lighter hues than its original appearance.
Before scheduling a laser hair removal session, it is crucial that you discuss your medical history with both a doctor or dermatologist. This will enable them to identify any health conditions or medications which could interfere with the procedure, as well as any prior shaving, plucking, waxing or use of any sunless-tanner creams which darken skin tone that might interfere.
Laser hair removal should not be attempted by those suffering from certain skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis. Furthermore, people who have experienced herpes simplex or cold sore outbreaks should also not consider laser treatments as potential candidates for laser treatment. Likewise, Accutane or any similar medications that affect skin regeneration should also not be used because this could result in chemical burns that won’t appear right away but could become apparent after multiple sessions; redness and irritation could surface weeks later following treatments.
