Use of Laser Hair Removal to Remove Unwanted Facial and Body Hair
If you have lots of unwanted hair that you are tired of removing through normal hair removal options like waxing and shaving, you could consider trying laser hair removal. This is a permanent solution to unwanted body and facial hair based on the color of your hair and skin.
The best candidates for laser hair removal are those with the following traits:
1. People having fair or light skin tones with dark and thick hair.
2. People who can avoid sunlight for about 4 – 6 weeks before treatment
3. People who can make regular appointments with their cosmetic surgeon after the treatment.
Common body parts for laser hair removal
Men not only use laser hair removal to remove facial hair, but also to remove back hair and areas that are prone to ingrown hairs and shaving bumps. Men also opt for laser hair removal in the bikini line and along the neck and shoulders.
Preparation for laser hair removal
1. You should never tan before the laser hair removal procedure as it obstructs the hair removal process.
2. If you plan to use laser hair removal for your underarms, you have to stop using deodorants for about 3 days before the appointment.
3. Ensure that the entire area to be treated is shaved clean. This is best done about 2-3 days before the procedure so that there is some stubble to facilitate easier and faster laser hair removal. However never pluck or wax the region to be treated.
4. It’s better to take a pain reliever like IB Profen or Tylenol on the day of the appointment to reduce the associated treatment pain.
The process
While wearing special goggles for protection from possible leakage of laser light, the doctor presses a laser device on your skin along with a cooling device to maintain the health of the rest of the skin.
This laser passes through the skin’s surface to the hair follicles, where you will feel a sting. Once the air follicle is damaged, you will smell an odor peculiar to its damage. This is repeated over the whole treatment area, which may span for a few minutes or hours based on the size of the area to be treated.
You get better results if you avoid direct sunlight and direct contact with the treated region after the treatment. Other than this, there is nothing preventing you from returning to your daily routines after the laser hair removal process.
