Why Consider Laser Hair Removal? - 9 Things to Know

1. Laser Hair Removal -- Most common areas to treat are:

a. Bikini area

b. Facial Hair

c. Underarms

d. Back Hair

e. Legs

f. Chest and Abdominal Hair Arms

2. Unwanted hair is a common problem. Shaving, waxing, and tweezing are not the answer because they are only temporary solutions. For many, electrolysis is too painstaking and it only treats one hair follicle at a time. Oral medications may not be appropriate for everyone. LHR typically requires fewer treatment sessions, less time at each session, and minimal discomfort.

3. Those with light skin and dark hair have best results. The more coarser hair, the better.

4. Usually not painful but may be uncomfortable, however.

5. Most return to normal activity right after the procedure.

6. LHR removal is safe if performed by an experienced person.

7. Possible complications include: darkening or lightening of the treated skin; burning / blistering of the treated skin.

8. 4-6 sessions are required for permanent hair removal in one area. The procedure can be repeated monthly.

9. The results of the laser can last for weeks before hair is even slightly visible.

a. Results in the upper-body last from seven to 11 weeks.

b. Mid-body results last from ten to 16 weeks.

c. Leg treatments last from 11 to 17 weeks.

This is a wonderful procedure. It helps so many people with their self-esteem and is literally life changing. If you are embarrassed by unwanted hair, try to learn more. I don't think you will ever regret you did.
