Laser
hair removal is considered a permanent way to reduce unwanted hair. Although called laser
hair removal the procedure does not remove all hair, but permanently reduces the total number of hairs in the area treated. The
hair follicle must be in an active growth stage for the laser to disable
the growth. Hair
follicles may enter their growth cycle after your treatment, Any area with hair growth can be treated, but the most commonly treated areas are the upper lip, chin, neck, back, chest, underarms, bikini line and legs. The treatment is described as feeling like an elastic band snapping against your skin, but can feel painful in sensitive areas (underarms, bikini line) so it is possible to have a anesthetic applied to the skin before the treatment. An ideal candidate for hair removal is someone with a pale complexion and dark hair, but darker skins can also get good results. It has been reported that blond hair does not react to the laser, but new technologies it may be possible to reduce lighter hair. Laser hair removal, like many non-surgical procedures, does not have to be performed by a plastic surgeon, but care should be taken when choosing a clinic. Some clinics have estheticians with no medical training at all performing
laser hair removal so it is important you carefully choose who to perform
your treatment as a laser is a powerful tool that can cause damage in
unexperienced hands. Many Canadian plastic
surgeons have medical aesthetic staff performing laser hair removal treatments at their clinics.
