-
HOW EXACTLY DOES LASER HAIR REMOVAL WORK?Laser hair removal works by using a laser beam to target the pigment (melanin) in the hair follicles. The laser emits a beam of intense light that is absorbed by the melanin in the hair. The heat from the laser shrinks the hair follicles, which slows or stops hair growth. During the treatment, the laser is directed at the area being treated, and the laser beam is absorbed by the hair follicles. Future hair development is prevented or slowed down by the heat from the laser, which harms the hair follicles. Laser hair removal is most effective on individuals with dark hair and light skin because the laser targets the melanin in the hair. However, newer laser technology allows for safe and effective treatment of individuals with all skin types. It's important to note that laser hair removal treatment typically requires multiple sessions for the best results. The number of sessions required will depend on the individual's hair and skin type, as well as the area being treated. It's important to have a consultation with our licensed professionals to determine the number of sessions needed for optimal results.
