Laser Hair Removal – An Expose

Looking at ads in fashion magazines you come across many pictures of bare chested, hairless, good-looking men. This has become the new American norm. So now men join the women in the quest for smooth, shiny skin, less reminiscent of our ancestors.

Unwanted hair growth  has been a problem for women for many generations across many cultures. From the geisha of Japan that painted her eyebrows high above their natural place, to the women of Armenia who liked to look less hairy and shaved their arms.

In our modern times, the best way to achieve that smooth skin is laser hair removal. To understand why that is the case, here are the facts:

Since the modern world started using what we call a laser beam, our lives have been forever changed. Lasers are used in weaponry, industry, medicine, dentistry, cosmetic procedures, tattoo removal, and in the last few years, lasers have been used in hair removal.

It has become so popular that over 2 million procedures a year are performed in the United States alone. With so many uses and so many procedures, we understand lasers like we never did before. The treatments are quite simple. Specific treatments are designed for specific parts of the body, but what you can expect is a cooling gel being spread on the area, a few flashes of light close to the skin which will feel like little nip, zapping the hair follicle under the skin to prevent them from developing more hair. Then the gel is wiped, with all the unwanted hair.

Treatment length depends on several factors: the area treated, the color of the skin, the color of the hair and its density. Since lasers work on the melamine in the hair follicle, the darker the hair, the easier it is to target. Because the hair has to be in its growth stage to be affected, and our hairs grow at different times, repeated visits are needed to achieve smooth, hairless skin. Normal duration is somewhere between 4-6 visits.

Visit length depends on the area being treated, typically from 15 to 60 minutes.

The price varies as well. Just as botox can be found in different prices at different places, so can laser hair removal. Make sure it is a clean, reputable place. The laser is targeted to certain areas so the accuracy is very high, and the effectiveness long lasting. Research done in Ankara, Turkey, proved it is 60 times more affective than electrolysis, the other permanent hair removal method.

Side effects rarely occur, and when they do they take the form of mild redness that goes away after a couple of hours.
