3Who are the best candidates for Laser Hair
Reduction?Because the lasers light energy is
absorbed by the pigment melanin in the skin,
people with greater contrast respond best. So
individuals with dark hair and light colored skin
get maximum results.Thats why one should avoid
tanning before and after the treatment for best
results.However, new laser technology has made
it possible for other people (including dark
complexion) to get signify
4W hat areas can be treated with laser? How much
does Laser Hair Reduction cost?The cost varies
depending on the area treated. The larger the
area, the greater the cost. However, your total
investment in laser hair reduction ends up being
significantly less than many other cosmetic
alternatives.There is evidence that laser
treatment can have some very long lasting
results, probably more so than any other.
5Does Laser Hair Reduction Hurt?Not really. As
compared to the pain from waxing or electrolysis
most patients say their laser treatment was
relatively pain-free. Many patients describe the
treatment as tingling or a slight snapping
sensation.Usually, the majority of patients can
easily tolerate this sensation without any type
of anesthetics. However you may elect to use a
topical numbing cream before your procedure.
6How does laser hair reduction work? Most hair
is permanently removed. Laser energy is
selectively absorbed by the melanin in the hair
follicle and converted to heat, diffusing to and
injuring stem cells in bulb and bulge.Regrowth
is finer and lighter than before.The principle
of hair reduction isSelective Photo the

-LightThermo HeatLysis -DamageThe laser can
only disable actively growing hair during your
treatment. And because hair growth occurs in
cycles, only a certain amount of hair follicles
are growing at any given time. The number of
treatments you may require for optimal long-term
benefits depends on the area you wish to have
treated, the hair density and your hairs growth
cycle.
7How far apart in time should laser hair removal
treatments be given? Because the hair removal
laser is only effective on actively growing hair
follicles, treatments should be spaced apart so
that the hair follicles in the area have time to
begin growing again. If the treatment is given
too soon, that particular treatment episode will
not be effective. The answer is dependent upon
several factors. But, for the bulk of cases, we
suggest about 4-6 weeks between treatments.
8What complications and risks are possible with
laser hair reduction?Lasers have been carefully
tested for their safety. Occasionally blisters
can develop, and very rarely, scarring or
infection. Also there is a possibility of hypo or
hyper pigmentation (if this does occur most
changes in skin color will fade away over time)
But these same effects can also occur with
electrolysis and even shaving or waxing.
9What do I need to do before Laser Hair Removal
treatment? Tanning should be avoided. Also, you
should leave slight stubble for laser hair
removal to be effective.Therefore, you should
not shave the areas to be treated for about 3
days prior to your treatment.Also, avoid waxing,
tweezing, or bleaching those areas several weeks
before laser treatment.
10What is the downtime? After your treatment,
you can return to your normal activities
immediately. The use of sun screen is recommended
on any treated areas exposed to the sun, and sun
exposure should be minimized before and after
laser hair removal treatment.After laser
treatment, there is usually some pinkness or
redness in the treated area which goes away after
a short time.There are no open wounds, bandages,
or anything like that. Most patients leave the
office feeling that they look.
11What are diode lasers?An extremely
high-powered (2900 W) diode laser (Light Sheer)
has been approved by the FDA for permanent hair
reduction.Long-term results suggest that the
pulsed, 800-nm diode laser is very effective for
removal of dark, terminal hair.Permanent hair
reduction can be obtained in 89 of patients.
This laser operates at 800 nm, has pulse widths
of 5-400 milliseconds, a 12 X 12-mm spot, a 2-Hz
repetition rate, a fluence of 10-60 J/cm2.
12Are lasers safe?The wavelengths of all three
modalities are within parts of the visible and
the near infrared portions of the electromagnetic
spectrum. They are longer than dangerous X-ray
wavelengths, yet shorter than microwaves which
can overheat the tissue.The technologies are
designed to cause selective heating of lesions,
but are safe for the surrounding tissues.To
prevent injury to the eyes, all laser and light
systems are shipped with wavelength specific
safety eyewear.
