ABOUT LASER HAIR REMOVAL

While methods such as waxing, plucking and shaving offer only temporary solutions, laser hair removal will help you achieve more permanent results, without the discomfort of side effects like ingrown hairs and skin irritation. The treatment is performed by a licensed healthcare provider who operates sophisticated medical equipment, which generates medical-grade laser beams.

What is Laser Hair Removal?

 

Laser Hair Removal is a medical non-invasive procedure that employs a pulse of laser to eliminate, reduce, or redesign unwanted hair selectively. The treatment is performed by a licensed healthcare provider who operates sophisticated medical equipment, which generates medical-grade laser beams.

The laser intensity or pulse wavelength is selected based on the patient’s needs and skin type to ensure the best results. Depending on the number of areas to treat, the session will take from 20 to 60 minutes to complete. It is essential to realize that during the treatment, your healthcare provider will expend all the time needed to get the desired effects. The procedure is relatively painless, and patients can resume their daily activities immediately afterward.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?

Full Body Laser Hair Removal is achieved through the damage or destruction of each hair follicle, or follicular unit. This selective destruction of the follicular unit is done without damaging the surrounding skin. To get a better idea of the process, the reader needs to know some basic concepts:

  • Melanin is a natural pigment responsible for giving color to the hair and skin. Melanin pigment can absorb and concentrate light.

  • Melanin is present inside each human hair. Therefore, medical-grade laser targets melanin. The laser beam is a high-energy light that can increase the temperature inside the hair cells.

  • The medical equipment emits or generates a light that is absorbed and concentrated by melanin, heating the hair shaft inside the hair follicle, causing its destruction.

  • The heat destroys hair bulbs preventing hair from regrowing. This process is called photo-dermolisis, and it is the principle behind the laser hair removal.

FAQs

  • Prior to getting a laser machine, I did lots of research. The reason I picked DermaLase IPL is that it is Health Canada approved and CSA certified. The Dermalase IPL has been clinically proven to be safe and has been rigorously tested for efficacy.

    Another reason I chose the DemaLaser IPL is that it has a large sapphire crystal head that allows me to treat clients quickly and the built-in, exceptional -5 degree cooling system keeps you comfortable and that makes it pain-free.

  • 6-8 treatments depending on the area. Some future touch-up treatments may be required, due to hormonal or other medical reasons.

  • Approximately 20% reduction of hair per treatment

  • People with active skin conditions such as eczema, urticaria, warts, herpes and active pimples should not use laser hair removal. Laser hair removal is also not recommended for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

  • While laser hair removal can be done on almost any skin color and hair type, hair color is essential.

    However, the light emitted by the laser is absorbed into the melanin or dark pigment in the hair follicle so that the dark hair can be treated much more effectively. DermaLase IPL system can’t treat red, grey or blonde hair.

  • Yes, of course, any person, regardless of his gender, can benefit from laser hair removal. In fact, during the last three years, the number of men who want to have a neat image has been growing. Consequently, some laser hair clinics have more men patients than women. There is no age or gender limitation for this treatment.
