Laser Hair Removal

Excessive hair is a problem that plagues many people around the globe, both men and women and generally most would rather be rid of it. A hairy chest is one thing, but hairs on the back, or hairs on their legs, arms or face for women are generally not welcome and so the desire to have it removed kicks in.

Laser Hair Removal is considered to be one of the foremost treatments for getting rid of excess hair, as it provides exceptional results but has none of the side effects or discomfort and pain associated with electrolysis.

Using lasers the areas requiring treatment are easier to target, whether that is a small or large area and it is a much faster method to remove unwanted hair. The directed laser energy is absorbed by the hair follicle and simply burns it away without any damage to the surrounding skin this stops further growth of the follicle. This is repeated across the area that requires treatment.

The process has only minor discomfort associated with it, which is normally a slight stinging sensation, though this can be treated with an anaesthetic cream before treatment. There can also be a degree of tenderness and redness but this will soon pass. The process can take as little as 15 minutes for an upper lip, to about 45-50 minutes for the back, proving how fast this method is.

Normal daily routines can be resumed after treatment with no ill effects, though strong sun exposure should be avoided, and sunscreen on the affected area is advised. There can also be some hair growth in the treated area in the following days after treatment, but these lifeless hairs will fall out quickly.
