Girls don’t like to talk about hair removal openly, but if properly done it can beautify your looks, develop confidence and make you feel great. It is really annoying to wait for the hair to grow to certain length and then wax it off. Not only this, today’s fast paced life doesn’t give us so much time to wait for the growth cycle of the hair. We, 21st century women, deserve the best technology to beautify ourselves.
Laser hair removal is a method of removing unwanted hair by using laser as energy. Mostly unwanted hairs are removed by shaving, tweezing and waxing by men and women. But these methods produce only temporary results and cannot be done in small areas.
In Laser Hair Removal, cream is applied on a particular area, and the area is shaved and cleaned. Then highly concentrated beam of laser light is focused upon the hair follicles, such that the light is absorbed by the pigment and the surrounding follicle gets destroyed. It is not a very painful process, though it may be little uncomfortable. How much time will laser session treatment involve, depends on the size or area on which it is carried out. Little redness or swelling after this treatment may appear which will disappears shortly after the process. And a person can resume his or her activity immediately. This process is completely safe, provided it is carried out by an experienced professional.
If the treatment is not carried out by an expert, the possible risk involves lightening or darkening, blistering or burning of the treated portion. Over exposure to the sun which results in tanning of the skin should be avoided because darker skin takes more time to be treated. For permanent hair removal usually 2-3 sessions are required. The process can be done monthly or by-monthly depending on the result.
Side Effects
Laser hair removal may have certain temporary or permanent side effects like other medical treatments. But these side effects are minor and can be reduced considerably, if treated by an experienced practitioner and if you follow the guidance suggested by them, before and after the process.
Temporary Side Effects
Patient feels pain during and after the process. During the process local anesthetic is given to the patient to reduce pain. Pain killers are often prescribed by the physician to get relief from pain. Sometimes patient can experience swelling and redness around the area which is being treated. This can be treated by using topical medicine prescribed by the physician. If the treatment is not carried out by expert, it can lead to permanent side effects like burns and scars on the skin
