In order to maintain proper hygiene, the hair on the body, especially in the underarms or on private parts, is required to be removed periodically. There are many chemicals available in the market that are alternative to painful waxing and can also cause irritation and may darken the underarm skin area. Shaving may be feasible for body hair, but this is not the best option for facial hair, and waxing can cause damage to the facial skin. On the other hand, laser hair removal treatment is a highly safe, effective, and painless process to get rid of unwanted face and body hair, and it does not damage the outer skin layer.
Why choose laser hair removal treatment?
To remove unwanted hair, a laser hair removal procedure is performed. Hair color and skin type influence the success of this procedure. Not the pigment of the skin, but the pigment of the hair should absorb the light, is the basic principle of this procedure. The laser heat causes damage to the hair follicle, making this procedure safe and precise.
Laser hair removal has become popular because of its speed and efficacy, although some of the efficacy is dependent on the experience and skill of the laser operator.
Areas that can be treated with laser hair removal treatment:
Face
Neck
Bikini line
Shoulders
Back
Chest
Arms and underarms
Legs
Laser hair removal procedure:
The doctor or the specialist cleans the treatment area.
If the treatment area is sensitive, a numbing gel can be applied.
Everyone in the room needs to wear special protective eyewear to prevent eye damage from the laser.
During the procedure, the doctor presses a hand-held laser instrument over the target area of the skin.
A cooling device on the tip of the instrument or a cool gel might be used to protect the skin.
When the doctor activates the laser, the laser beam will pass through the skin to the hair follicle.
The intense heat from the laser beam damages the hair follicle by inhibiting hair growth.
The patient might feel a warm pinprick and a sensation of cold from the cooling gel or device.
Treating a larger area, such as the back, might take more than one hour, while treating a smaller area, such as upper lips, might take only a few minutes.
Pre-treatment care:
Avoid sun exposure before treatment. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF sunscreen before stepping out in the sun.
Doctor might prescribe a skin bleaching cream if the candidate has tan or dark skin.
Waxing, plucking should be avoided as they can disturb the hair follicle at least four weeks before the treatment.
Avoid blood-thinning medications before the procedure.
Shaving and trimming are recommended the day before the procedure.
Post-treatment care:
Candidate might notice swelling and redness for the first few hours after the procedure, which is normal and will resolve within a few days.
Apply ice to the treated area to reduce any kind of discomfort.
After the laser hair removal procedure, the doctor might apply a steroid cream to the affected area if the candidate has a skin reaction.
Avoid sunlight. Use a broad-spectrum SPF sunscreen daily for best results.
