How does laser work ?
Laser cause selective destruction of hair follicles and achieve long term hair reduction after multiple sessions of treatment
How many treatment sessions are needed ?
Lasers do not achieve permanent hair destruction after one single treatment. Several sessions (between6-10) are needed for significant hair reduction. This is because laser attack melanin present in hair. Only growing hairs contain melanin and hence only growing hair are destroyed. The resting hairs reach growing stage after 3-4 weeks and hence laser needs to be repeated 4-6 weeks later to remove this second generation of hair

If viewed as fees per session, it appears expensive when compared to cost of a bottle of depilating cream or waxing. However when viewed long term and recurrent cost of other treatments are considered over several years, laser hair removal is actually more cost effective
What are the precautions for laser hair removal ?
Before laser treatment, you should avoid waxing and plucking of hair for 2weeks. Avoid excess sun exposure. This is to avoid damage to the overlying skin as the tanned skin will also absorb the laser light

Can laser hair removal be performed by beauty clinics ?
