What Patients Should Know
Laser devices send specific concentrated beams of light through the skin that are absorbed by the melanin (dark) pigment
present in the hair follicle shafts. The light gets converted to heat and affects the hair growing stem cells, which in turn
reduces the hair growth Because hair grows in cycles, repeated treatments are necessary to destroy the hair follicles.What patients should knowTreatments should be performed by or under the direct supervision of a dermatologist or other
physician who has appropriate training and expertise. Darker hair responds best to laser hair removal.Side effects
The most common side effects include discomfort, swelling, and redness that last one to three days.Expected results
The percentage of hairs removed per session varies by location on the body, with thinner-skinned
areas (e.g., armpits and bikini area) generally responding better than thick-skinned areas
(e.g., back and chin).About 10 percent to 25 percent reduction in hair growth can be expected with each treatment.
Treatments are repeated every four to eight weeks. The hair that regrows following treatment tends to be lighter and finer in
texture. Patients are instructed to avoid sun exposure and to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a Sun Protection Factor
(SPF) of 30 or higher following the procedure.
