Is Laser Hair Removal Safe? - Dr. Marwah's Clinic

There is so much trouble with removing unwanted
hair through waxing every month. Every girl
wants to have a hair-free skin forever, without
having to face the hassles and time to sit for
the waxing procedure every few weeks, let alone
the pain and discomfort they face. But then,
they feel there is nothing they can do about it,
and they helplessly go into the salon every
month to have their hair removed. But, do you
know that there is, in fact, a permanent
procedure for getting rid of your hair? Yes, its
true! Laser hair removal is a procedure that can
help you effectively remove hair from your skin
so that it returns never again.
How is the laser hair removal procedure
conducted? In the laser hair removal procedure,
unwanted hair is removed by exposure to laser
light. It works on the principle of selective
photothermolysis, which involves the use of a
specific wavelength of light to affect a
targeted tissue while having minimal effect on
the surrounding tissue. The excessive amount of
melanin present in the hair absorbs the pigment
to destroy the follicle, which results in
permanent removal of the hair. Because of the
property of dark colour reacting better, laser
hair removal works best for a dark hair- light
skin combination. And, this is the same reason
why it does not work for blonde or red hair. Is
laser hair removal a one-time procedure?

Generally, to get rid of unwanted hair
permanently, there is required at least 6-8
sessions of laser hair removal to completely
kill the hair follicles. However, the number of
sessions may be more, depending upon the
individuals skin and hair quality. The sessions
are continued until the hair growth is
permanently stopped. Is laser hair removal
safe? Laser hair removal is generally safe,
which brings amazing results. However, nothing
comes without side-effects. Some of the most
common side-effects include redness, itchiness,
and swelling. But, all of these normally
disappear in two to three days. Some people are
also known to encounter infections, or skin
lightening/darkening, depending upon their skin
quality. However, there is nothing to worry about
in such cases. These side- effects can be
avoided with proper moisturization of skin and
even if it happens can be treated, if action is
taken immediately. Also, you will experience a
little pain in your treated area while the
procedure. But, this is obvious, as we all know,
No pain, No gain! While most of the above
side-effects are common and go away with time,
other problems like infections, blisters, and
skin lightening/darkening can be avoided if the
right kinds of lasers are chosen for your skin.
