Frequently Asked Question
Laser hair removal uses concentrated light energy to target and destroy hair follicles. The laser's energy is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair, which damages the follicle and inhibits future hair growth.
Laser hair removal significantly reduces hair growth, and in many cases, the results are long-lasting. However, some individuals may experience hair regrowth over time, though the new hair is usually finer and lighter.
Most people require between 8 to 10 treatment sessions to achieve optimal results. The number of sessions depends on factors like hair type, skin type, and the area being treated.
Most people experience only mild discomfort, often described as a snapping or tingling sensation. Many modern lasers have cooling mechanisms to minimize discomfort during the treatment.
Advances in laser technology allow treatment for a wide range of skin tones. However, the effectiveness may vary based on hair and skin color, with darker hair and lighter skin often yielding the best results. Always consult with a qualified provider for personalized recommendations.
Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, or mild irritation at the treatment site. These usually subside within a few hours or days. Serious complications are rare when performed by a trained professional.
