Understanding Laser Hair Removal
Both men and women have problems with unwanted hair. While the areas on our bodies where we experience these problems can differ, the methods of permanent hair reduction remain the same. Laser hair removal is a permanent treatment that is now very popular with both sexes.
Women often seek permanent facial hair removal for their chins, upper lips and neck. They also often want to prevent hair re-growth under their arms and in their bikini area. Men on the other hand often seek laser treatments to achieve permanent back hair removal or to tackle ingrown hairs on their neck and shoulders. The procedure makes it possible to remove hairs anywhere on the body. Wherever your problem areas are, talk to a laser hair removal specialist to learn how your problems can best be solved.
Before embarking on any permanent hair removal treatment you need to assess if your unwanted hairs are due to a medical condition. If you have experienced a sudden increase in unwanted hair it could be due to something happening inside your body or because a change in your medication. For example, hormonal imbalances can often cause sudden unwanted hair growth in women. If you are unsure it is always best to consult with a doctor prior to any procedures.
After determining that your unwanted hair growth is not due to anything unusual you may find yourself ready to pursue laser hair removal to achieve a smooth, bare complexion that lasts. Have you tried other methods in the past that resulted in pain and skin irritation? If you are concerned about trying something more permanent because it may possibly be taxing on your skin, don’t worry. While permanent hair removal with lasers can cause some people discomfort, an experienced specialist can ensure each session is comfortable and incredibly effective.
Aside from the effectiveness of laser hair removal, what are the other advantages? Compared to other treatments, such as electrolysis, using a laser is a speedy procedure. As a result it can be performed on larger areas of hair. Whether you want to clear up hairs from your entire back or just your bikini line, anything is possible. It is also widely considered to be a more gentle treatment than waxing. Many people think that the mild pinch of the laser does not sting nearly as much as waxing.
It takes between three to six sessions to achieve permanent hair removal using a laser. Most people find that their unwanted hair is gone after three sessions, but you will get a much better idea about how long it will take for you by speaking with your laser hair removal specialist. The period of rest between sessions can vary depending on your skin and your hair re-growth rate. Some redness and swelling can occur after a session, so if you are scheduled for permanent facial hair removal you may want to consider taking a day off work.
When it comes to the permanency of laser hair removal this varies a great deal from person to person. Some that are treated do not see a single hair grow back for five years, and some may experience some thinner hairs appearing after six to 12 months.
Whether you are a man looking to make your back smooth in time for a beach holiday, or a woman who wants to have a glowing facial complexion for an upcoming wedding – laser hair removal can be an effective and comfortable treatment that provides extraordinary results.

IPL is a waste and not proven to be permanent long term, it’s much better to stick to laser, like GentleLASE if you want permanent removal. Much more efficient and faster and doesn’t need messy gels. To another poster, laser IS permanent but reduction not removal. It will permanently remove the hair it treats, but it’s only called reduction because it can’t remove fine or lighter hairs. It doesn’t mean the hair will start coming back later on.
In one decade technology will allow consumers to purchase units to use at home with the same power as units used by dermatologists.

One of the side effects of laser hair removal are burns. While burns are not always part of the treatments, on very sensitive skin, major burning can occur. Because you are trying to get hair removed in such a sensitive area, I would look into all possible side effects. If you think you can stand any of them on your genitals for ever treatment (there are usually several), then maybe this is okay for you. But for most people, I would say leave the hair or find a different solution.
I think before you do anything, you need to talk to your doctor just to make sure. Because one of the side effects of this syndrome is excess body hair, the physical response to laser hair removal may not be as effective as with people without this syndrome. The hormonal response of hair growth will probably not be stopped by laser hair removal. However, this does not mean that you should not get it. As with most people, laser hair removal is not a permanent treatment. Often times it serves as a way to thin unwanted hair, to make hair management easier. If this would be enough for you, then this might be an effective way to make your life easier.
My wife's aunt is a dermatologist and had this done for free. She never would have had paid for it if it wasnt' for her aunt. But knowing what she knows now, my wife would have paid for it in a SECOND! The results were outstanding and permanent (3 years so far)
It works…it REALLY works. Keep in mind it will take AT LEAST two treatments, maybe even three or four depending on your hair, the area, and thickness.
Also, find a reputable dermatologist. There are very minimal risks involved, but lot of fly by night companies are doing these procedures. The risks are amplified if you go with someone that doesn’t know what they are doing. You can end up with scars and burns if you go with an amateur . You shouldn’t worry about this with a true MD. If it is an MD find out how long they have been doing it.
I don’t know how it works, but the laser only “zaps” dark colors. Non-caucasians (Latinas, blacks, or other dark skinned people) may have to go through more treatments. The laser will have to be turned down as to not burn the darker skin. Some very dark skinned individuals may not be able to have the procedure done.
The $750 – $1000 sounds inline with what you should pay for TOTAL removal…ie multiple sessions. That sounds pretty high for a single session.
You should expect lots of red splotches and some light to moderate swelling in the treated areas for a few days. So if you have your upper lip done people at work will know you had something done the next day. It look kind of like a fresh waxing times two or three. I don’t think it is anything to be ashamed of. But if you are self-conscious about this you may want to have the procedure done on a Thurs or Friday and take a day or two off of work.
It can be a little painful in some places. Not severe, but you will feel a little something.
Hope that helps!
There's is a great webiste that has some good tips and techniques that you can use on your hair. There are also some third party options that are reliable. The site is http://www.hairfinish.com
It is not like that laser hair removal work for the darker skinned people..It is quite suitable for all the people and it is quite easy but cost is high when compared to other treatment..It is not suitable for the people who have sensitive skin…It is also simple and safety way to remove the hair…
I am getting it done also for the first time next Tuesday – and they told me to shave. They even said if I don't – that's fine, they'll shave it for me!!
Sounds gross – but I guess that means that it should be smooth. It isn't the actual hair that the lazer zaps – its the pigment of the hair that it detects.
Anyway – hope it works for you!
Laser hair removal has actually been surpassed by IPL hair removal (in Australia – that is). As a Laser Aesthetician I have used and experienced both. I have dark hair and olive skin. I did have some hypopigmentation from the Ruby Laser but it resolved. I have had no side effects from the IPL and all my hair has gone…. legs, underarms, bikini. It's wonderful, not having to worry about it anymore. Both laser and IPL are attracted to the melanin in the hair and only goes as deep as the hair root.It is not invasive at all and feels like a slight rubber band flicking the skin. It doesn't cause cancer !!!! Either way it will take several treatments to be hair free.
when i went to get laser hair removal on my underarms, they told me that i had to have shaven the area within twenty four hours of the procedure. where ever you're getting it done you should ask if they think the laser hair removal will work on the short thin hairs you have under your sideburns because i heard it doesn't work on hair that's almost like peach fuzz.
