About Laser Hair Removal

Laser removal of hair uses laser light energy on the hair target area. Heat from the lase source is absorbed by pigment in the hair which triggers follicle inflammation. This process causes the hair follicle into a resting state in which the follicle produces no hair.

Different wavelengths of laser light targets the pigment within the hair shaft. A physician well-trained in laser hair removal carefully targets hair pigment without damaging the skin itself. The laser is applied just long enough to target the hair with heat while not permitting it to damage the surrounding skin.

Number of Treatments and Affordability

Depending upon the specific hair removal area and volume of hair, a series of 3 to 7 treatments are necessary. Thereafter, maintenance treatments are required at intervals which may only be once per year.

The cost of treatments will vary depending upon several factors. Expect fees from a hundred dollars up to several hundred dollars. It's always best to consult with several laser hair removal physicians not only to verify qualifications but prices for treatments as well.
