Excess hair on the body on the back, face, chest, and arms, in addition to other areas, can be embarrassing and frustrating to deal with. Shaving must be done constantly and leaves razor burn and ingrown hairs. Waxing is painful and messy. Depilatories are a hassle, stink and are only a temporary solution.
People that want to get rid of their unwanted body hair can use laser hair removal. It can reduce the anxiety related to excess hair quickly and easily with long-lasting results. This system uses a laser, which in an invisible bean of light and heat, to destroy the hair at its root in the hair follicle. Laser hair removal works on all skin types, but, unfortunately, does not work on grey or red hair. Laser hair removal treatment has proved to be safe and most efficient for treating ingrown hair. Since this is safe on the skin, you need not worry about irritation or red bumps.
For patients considering laser hair removal, they should investigate the laser the doctor will use. There are four lasers that are currently used in Beverly Hills laser hair removal: the Alexandrite, Ruby, Diode, and ND and LP ND Yag.
During the treatment, patients will wear goggles to protect their eyes from the laser. The patients may feel slight impulses, prickling and/or a slight burning sensation. This can be minimized by anesthetic creams. The patient may also smell singed hair, but that is normal.
Laser hair removal may take just a few minutes if it is a small area, like the upper lip, but it also may take a few hours, if the patient is having a larger area treated, like their back. Post-laser hair removal, the patient may experience some swelling or redness, much like a sunburn. In the case of a slight crusting of skin, vaseline can be applied to moisturize the area.
Hair will continue to fall out for two weeks following the treatment. Patients should protect their skin with high SPF sunscreen and should not rub, pick or do any additional hair removal on the treated areas.
