Get The Facts About Laser Hair Removal

If you are interested in trying something different rather than your traditional methods of hair removal such as using a razor, tweezers or hot wax to keep hair junk at bay, you must first think about getting laser hair removal to achieve a smooth, hassle free look.   Most people are not aware that laser hair removal has been around for quite some time.  However, during the last 5 years there has been a considerable incline in patients seeking this treatment because of it's affordability.  You may want to learn the basics before getting this procedure.

Laser Hair Removal machines use a beam of light to rid of stubble for long periods of time.  Eventually after a few treatments  the follicles are too damaged to grow properly. This works better for some people than others, and therefore there is no guaranteed time period during which to have smooth skin. Most people will need more than one session for best results, and some people may notice the follicles growing only a few months later, while others do not see this happening for years. In fact, this procedure is best for people with light skin and dark hair.  They will achieve the best possible results.

Laser hair removal is often used for removing fuzz from the upper lip, bikini, armpits and legs. Unfortunately, some people experience side effects no matter what area they decide to use this treatment for.  Some people notice that their skin is irritated for a brief period afterward.  This is very normal for most patients and usually will diminish within 48 hours. This treatment can also temporarily darken or clarify the skin when using a lightening laser, it can change the pigment for a short period of time. However, these side effects should usually disappear on their own. They are very rare to begin with.

The important part of this treatment is choosing an ideally qualified individual. Some spas and salons offer laser hair removal, but to insure consumer safety, it is recommended that you seek a plastic surgeon, who has the experience to handle this equipment and the credentials that go along with it too.
