Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that uses concentrated beams of light (lasers) to remove unwanted hair from various parts of the body. The laser targets the pigment (melanin) in the hair follicles, damaging them to inhibit future hair growth.
How It Works:
The laser emits light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair.
This light energy converts to heat, which damages the hair follicle.
Damaged follicles produce thinner hair or stop producing hair altogether.
Multiple sessions are usually needed to catch hair in different growth cycles for best results.
Commonly Treated Areas:
Legs
Underarms
Bikini line
Face (upper lip, chin)
Back
Chest
Benefits:
Longer-lasting hair reduction compared to shaving or waxing.
Precision targeting of hair without damaging surrounding skin.
Less irritation and fewer ingrown hairs.
