Laser hair removal is one way some people decide to get rid of their excess and unwanted hair.

The treatment time for laser hair removal depends on several things, like the area being treated and also the extent of the treatment.

Laser hair removal itself involves beaming a laser beam through the several layers of the skin, which then gets attracted to the hair and skin pigment. The laser beam focuses on the hair follicle and burns it, to stop it from growing back for a long amount of time. Some people say laser hair removal is permanent, to some it may seem permanent but most people like to say that it is semi permanent, needing top up sessions every now and again.

The best bit about this treatment is that it requires no anaesthesia and is almost painless. Some compare it to a rubber band snapping against the skin and you can return to work instantly afterwards.

Photothermolysis (SPTL) is the main principle behind this treatment technique which uses a specific wavelength of light, matched with a pulse.

Laser hair removal of often said to be ineffective on red hair. However, advancements in technology may mean this is no longer the case – we investigate here…….

[We have now updated this article – you can read our in-depth article here instead – Laser on Red and Ginger hair] 

A noticeable investigation showed that most lasers still don’t work effectively on red hair, despite claims that suggest otherwise. In an experiment, the laser hair removal treatment cleared darker hair from an area, but left red hair behind. This is because there was red hair mixed in with the brown hair to start with and the laser left the red hair behind. This shows just how effective the laser is in distinguishing between the hairs.

In essence, you should talk to your laser hair removal clinic about how many treatments you will need and what the estimated cost will be. You may not be able to achieve results on red hair with the laser alone, but advancements in technology suggest combination methods may well work on removing your unwanted red hair.

Laser hair removal is gaining popularity, but why? Many experts say it is because the procedure saves time, cost and hassle of waxing and shaving. However, cost does seem to be the main factor, The cost of treatment used to be a lot higher but lately it has been more affordable.

Most people will ask about the laser hair removal price but it is dependant. The price depends on several factors including the number of sessions you’ll need to have. Some people need more than others if their hair is more difficult to treat and remove.
You should think about the long term savings of no longer having to buy razors or wax strips, when considering the cost of laser hair removal.

There are various other factors affecting the price of laser hair removal.

1. How big is the area being treated? As mentioned before, smaller area of skin takes far less time than bigger areas of the body. This affects the price.

2. The area of the country also decides the price. Further north salons in the UK may offer cheaper treatments than more exclusive areas of the south.

3. How many sessions will you need? Linked with point 1, the area of skin being treated may need more sessions. Four sessions is typical, but it might be up the eight sessions. The more sessions, the higher the price.

4. The colour of your skin and hair also affects the price. This is because the energy from your laser is absorbed through the pigment inside the hair, so dark hair on light skin responds far better to laser hair removal treatment than red hair or dark tanned skin. Dark tanned skinned may need more sessions, increasing the price dramatically.

Choose a clinic which has qualifications is vital. Don’t settle for second best when it comes to your skin and hair. Try to find a physician which is Board Certified in Dermatology and that has had training with the laser and good client testimonials. You should expect to have a professional consultation too.

When choosing your clinic you should enquire about the experience of the person performing the process on you. If it is possible, you should try and speak to a couple of former patients about their expertise when it comes to having the procedure at the specific laser hair removal clinic. This should give you a good idea about the clinic’s reputation.

Having a lot of body hair can be embarrassing, and for many people it is a lifelong battle. Removing hair can also hurt and may irritate the skin, leaving unsightly rashes and spots. It is also highly time consuming.

A popular trend in hair removal is laser hair removal. Many people have decided to have laser treatments to get rid of unwanted body fur and hair. This increasingly common treatment removes the hair quickly by using a laser, which comes out of a handheld machine that a clinician uses. The laser hair removal procedure stops a head of hair from growing for a much longer period of time than traditional methods of shaving or waxing.

Professionals in the laser hair removal field claim that the hair is removed instantly from the root with little irritation and also that the hair will re grow at a much slower rate so you can have longer results.

There are several benefits other than those mentioned of laser hair removal.

The main reason that people have laser hair removal is for the relief of getting irritating and constantly thicker body hair removed by old hair removal methods like shaving. This saves money in the long term, on buying new shavers and waxing strips and some people go to the salon to get their legs waxed, all of these costs add up.

laser hair removal is also a benefit to people with a large area of body hair that they would like to cure. This usually includes the back and chest, areas which men in particular like to have treated.

Laser hair removal doesn’t cure everyone, though. People with fairer complexions who also have darker body hair will get the best results. This is because the contrast is easily seen by the laser, so darker skin is more difficult to treat.

Laser hair removal is also highly safe. It is regulated and approved by the FDA. Laser hair removal works by the heat from the laser which damages the hair follicle and so stops hair growth for a long period of time.

Hair laser removal treatment lasts from around 15 minutes to up to an hour; this depends on the area receiving the laser hair removal treatment.

Follow up treatments are needed for most people for full effectiveness. Treatments will last around eight weeks for the average person but this does depend on the kind of area being treated. For example, a lip treatment won’t take as long as a leg or back treatment.

Using laser hair removal, almost all of your undesired body hair will be removed and this means you are left with the ultimate result which lasts far longer than shaving or waxing. Skin is smoother, and more desirable, something everyone wants to achieve.

Laser hair removal is not totally permanent although it can achieve hair free skin for a lot of months, sometimes even a year. This is the main purpose why using this method has acquired like level of popularity over time.
