Virtually your entire body is covered with hair. Because most of this hair is fine and pale, it usually isn’t viable to the naked eye. But, when darker, coarser hair appears in places which may make you uncomfortable,it may be time to consider hair removal with the LASER. Now men and women alike are making unwanted facial hair and body hair a thing of the past .No more painful waxing, electrolysis or razors!
When the LASER pulse is delivered, some patients experience a mild pinching or stinging sensation but no local anesthesia or pain medication is typically required; however, some patients may prefer to use a topical anesthetic when sensitive areas are treated.
Principle of LASER for hair reduction:
The laser has a wavelength that specifically targets the pigment ‘melanin’ contained in the hair follicle & shaft. It penetrates the skin to the depth of 1.5mm which is where the hair bulb is located. Thus it works on the principle of selective ‘photothermolysis’.The laser pulses for a fraction of a second, penetrates the hair bulb without destroying the surrounding skin & vaporizes the pigment in the hair follicle.Thus the follicle is either destroyed or its re-growth is impeded. This is a non- invasive procedure & a large number of hairs are targeted in a single flash of light .
Commonly Treated areas:
- Chin
- Underarm
- Upperlip
- Chest
- Back
- Legs

Side Effects:
Most commonly noticed are slight reddening and local swelling of the skin.These effects typically last for several hours or less. In rare instances, blistering may occur.
