Laser Hair Removal has become increasing popular but it is not
for everybody. The most basic requirement is that the hair must
be darker than the surrounding area of skin. Those with very
darkly pigmented skin can absorb too much of the laser energy
into the skin and are not recommended to have laser treatment
unless at a specialist hair removal centre.
Treatment costs can be high depending on the area of hair
removal required. Obviously upper lip treatment would be less
costly than entire legs or back area. Although one session can
produce log-term hair removal an average of four sessions is
usually recommended initially.
Skin and hair color can influence the effectiveness of Laser
hair removal. A light skin color aids faster and fewer
treatments. Darker hair absorbs more of the laser energy and
course dark hair will benefit the most. Lighter hair is more
difficult to treat and blonde or red hair very hard to treat.
Any area can be treated except those very close to the eye. The
most popular areas are the upper lip and face, the chest and
neck, underarms and back, the bikini line and the legs.
Several studies have shown that treatment with the latest Lasers
can lead to permanent hair removal. Obviously results vary
between patients and studies suggest the more treatments the
more long lasting the effect. However never believe a clinic
that guarantees permanent hair removal. Most reputable clinics
will not give guarantees as results vary between patients. Also
always seek out a clinic based on the highest quality not on the
lowest treatment price. Laser treatment requires specialist,
trained staff, as with most things in life you generally get
what you pay for!
Laser Hair Removal is now a realistic choice for those seeking a
more long lasting solution than other more traditional methods
of hair removal.
