Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that uses concentrated light beams (lasers) to reduce unwanted hair growth. The laser's energy is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair, converting it into heat that damages or destroys the hair follicle, thus inhibiting future hair growth.It's a more permanent solution compared to methods like shaving or waxing, offering long-term hair reduction.
-
The laser targets the melanin in the hair shaft, which absorbs the light and converts it into heat. This heat damages the hair follicle, preventing it from producing new hair.
Effectiveness:
Laser hair removal is most effective when the hair is in its growth phase (anagen phase). Since hair follicles are in different stages at different times, multiple treatments are typically required for optimal results.
-
While some people achieve permanent hair removal, others see significant hair reduction that can last for months or years.
