How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
So, How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Laser hair removal techniques were originally pioneered in the 1970s, and were originally classified as Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) epilators. These early techniques and more modern techniques result in the permanent removal of hair. The techniques are used for spot hair elimination, or for larger areas of the skin such as hair removal on the back, under arms, bikini lines, face and other areas of the body. The laser procedures eliminate the hair and seal the growth points for hair follicles resulting in a permanent hair removal.
Variety of Laser Techniques
At CosMed Clinic, our practice employs a variety of laser techniques for hair removal, fat removal and skin resurfacing. The various techniques include:
- Photoderm Vasculight LaserTM – this modern, truly monochromatic laser system effectively and permanently removes hair and hair follicles from small or large areas of the skin from around the lips to larger areas of the skin including the back, legs and arms. Most patients indicate that this procedure induces considerable less pain than plucking hairs and results in permanent hair removal, preventing regrowth.
- Photo Rejuvenation – using IPL technologies and CO2 lasers, skin resurfacing, removing dead layers of skin results in smoother, healthier skin. Cosmetic surgeons frequently use these techniques to tighten skin after weight loss, to remove hair, and to reduce scarification.
- Laser Skin Tightening – using the latest in laser technologies including the Fraxel Re:Store TreatmentTM and Thermage® allow cosmetic surgeons to tighten skin (particularly useful after weight loss or surgery), resurface skin, and remove moles, wrinkles, sagging skin and other work on other problematic skin conditions.
