Hair removal is not a new concept. Waxing, trimming and even shaving are kinds of hair removal. In fact, evidence suggests that women in ancient Egypt, Greece and Middle East also practiced various kinds of hair removal techniques. In modern times, the latest and the most long lasting technique is Laser Hair Removal.
Even though it seems a little absurd than people in ancient times had the necessary know-how to get rid of body hair, now it has become a common practice. Almost all women take steps to reduce and remove hair from their bodies. Like all other aspects of life, hair removal too has been affected by technology. Laser Hair Removal is a relatively recent development and gives what can safely be called ‘permanent’ results.
In this process, a long pulse laser is aimed at the hair follicles to disable their active growth. Any person can benefit from this technology by modifying the laser light and duration of the pulse to match the conditions of the hair follicle. The laser light is absorbed by dark pigments of the hair and is harmless to the skin.
One thing to bear in mind that although the procedure is completely safe, it should only be handled by a trained and experienced laser specialist. Since the depth of a hair follicle depends on which stage of growth it is in, the laser needs to be adjusted and readjusted many times. Laser Hair Removal can be done on almost all parts of the body including the face, back, underarms, etc. If works especially well with fair-skinned people with dark hair, since the laser can easily be concentrated on the dark pigment.
Laser Hair Removal requires around 6 to 8 treatment sessions, so be patient and listen to the doctor. Investing time in these few sessions will save you countess hours every other week trying to get rid of hair through non-permanent measures. A few days before the treatment begins, the area to be treated needs to be shaved to allow the laser to target the follicles. Once the treatment is done the hair follicles come up to the surface and start shedding. If often seems like they are growing back, but there is nothing to worry about. The skin needs to be treated with aloe Vera. Each session will be about 6-8 weeks apart.
Even men have started opting for Laser Hair Removal. The best part about Laser Hair Removal for men is that it can have a thinning effect for the hair on their arms, chest and back. This is especially beneficial for people who do not wish to become completely hairless but want their body hair to reduce. This flexibility is not available in almost any other kind of hair removal technique, most of which simple remove all the hair, which comes back after a few days.
People who have the uni-brow problem can also make use of this process to give their face a clean new look. Since excessive hair growth can create insecurity in women and men both, Laser Hair Removal proves to be a great solution for everybody.
