If you are not satisfied with trimming your unwanted body hair with a Gillette or a home epilator, using a laser to remove this hair is probably an attractive option for you. In general, the process of laser body hair removal is one of the most common methods of correction, in which laser light with appropriate intensity is used. During this procedure, laser light is shined on the hair follicles, then the pigments of the follicles absorb the light and the hair is practically lost. In fact, the increase in temperature at the root of the hair is what causes the loss of the follicle. Then, after the destruction of the follicle due to laser radiation, the hair growth stops and after about 1 to 2 weeks, the hair falls out. But in the discussion of unwanted hair, there are always aspects and questions that we intend to examine in this article.
In order to perform body hair correction, at first, a person must cut his hair to a few millimeters above the skin surface. After this and by visiting the clinic in question, the operator usually uses local anesthetic 20 to 30 minutes before lasering the hair. The use of local anesthesia greatly reduces the pain caused by laser hair removal. In this regard, it should be emphasized that, in general, laser equipment settings are made according to the color of people’s skin and hair, thickness and place of growth of unwanted hair.
In the next step, the technician shines a light pulse on the desired area and examines that area for a few minutes to make sure that the settings work optimally for that person and that there are no reactions associated with sensitivity in the person’s body. Once there are no worrisome results, the operator will proceed with the procedure, after which you may be given ice packs, anti-inflammatory creams, or lotions to reduce any discomfort and possible burning or pain. Laser hair removal is usually scheduled over a period of four to six weeks until the hair stops growing. It is interesting to know that our body hair has constant growth and rest cycles. Therefore, if the hair follicle is in the resting phase during the hair laser, the laser beam has no effect on it; For this reason, to remove all the hair, several sessions of laser treatment are needed, with specific time intervals.
If you are going to have laser hair removal, you should avoid any hair waxing or electrolysis for six weeks before the treatment. Because such measures can target the laser hair roots and make the laser process less effective. Also, six weeks before and after laser treatment, you should avoid sunbathing, because exposure to sunlight makes laser hair removal less effective and increases the possibility of complications after treatment.
Using a laser to remove unwanted hair on the face, legs, chin, back, arms, armpits, bikini line and other areas of the body, or in other words full body, is completely effective and practical. In fact, the use of these devices is associated with benefits that generally include the following.
High precision: It is interesting to know that by using a laser you can selectively and with high precision target your dark and coarse hairs, so that the skin around that area is not damaged in any way.
High performance speed: Generally, each laser pulse only takes a fraction of a second to remove hair, and you can also use it to remove many hairs at the same time. In other words, the laser device can shave an area the size of a square one by one every second. In this regard, small and delicate areas such as the top of the lip can be corrected in less than a minute, and large areas such as the back or thighs may take up to an hour.
Results: Most of the people who are treated with laser, on average, after three to seven treatment sessions, they no longer see excess hair growth!
Without any functional limitations: using a laser device, there are no limitations for removing unwanted hair in any part of the body. Due to the wide range of types of laser devices and various treatments, you can remove hair from any spot. Also, the risk of side effects with laser hair removal in sensitive areas such as the bikini or face is not higher than any other point, and as mentioned below, it is not very common.
