In the laser hair removal procedure, a concentrated beam of light (laser) is projected to remove unwanted hair from the body. It is a medical procedure performed by trained cosmetic doctors.

During the procedure, a laser emits light absorbed by melanin peasant in the hair. The light is then converted into heat that damages the follicles responsible for hair growth. It helps to control hair growth by delaying it.

Another thing to remember is that this procedure only delays hair growth and does not permanently stop it. For the initial hair removal, multiple laser treatments are needed together with maintenance treatments. Though it is best for people with light skin and dark hair, it is suitable for all skin types.

Laser hair removal generally takes 2 to 6 treatments. The interval between the treatments usually depends on the part of your body that needs hair removal. For instance, if treatment needs to be conducted on upper lips where hair grows rapidly, the interval between the treatments will be four to eight weeks. But in case of slow hair growth, the treatment is repeated every 12 to 16 weeks.

You will be given special goggles for eye protection. Moreover, if your surgeon finds it necessary, an assistant will shave the area again. Moreover, a local anaesthetic may be provided to avoid discomfort.

During Procedure

A laser instrument will be pressed on the area that needs to be treated. A cooling device or a gel might be used on the tip of the instrument to protect the skin and lower the risk of any possible side effects.

When the laser is switched on, the beams pass through the skin to the hair follicles and the intense heat damages it. During this procedure, it is common to feel a little discomfort as a warm pinprick and a cold sensation from the gel.

If a small area needs to be treated, the procedure will take a few minutes, but if the target is a larger area, it might take hours.

After Procedure

After the laser treatment, there might be redness and swelling in the treated area for a few hours. Your doctor will provide you with steroid cream in case you experience any skin reaction. In addition, you can apply ice to reduce redness and swelling.

After and between the treatment, avoid sun exposure. Do not use a tanning bed as told by your doctor. Above all, use SPF30 sunscreen daily.

It is always best to have a consultation with your doctor about everything you can and cannot do during and after the treatment.
