What Is Laser Hair Removal?
It is an advanced, US FDA-approved, dermatologist-led treatment that safely removes unwanted hair. It is a long-term solution that you can replace with other hair removal methods like waxing, shaving, threading without hesitation. The procedure involves using laser to target melanin in the hair. The hair absorbs the light energy, turning it into heat energy to damage the unwanted hair follicles. This inhibits future hair growth. It works on various skin types and hair colours, requires multiple sessions, and gives you long-lasting results.
How Laser Hair Removal Works On Face?
Laser hair removal is safe for all body areas, including sensitive areas such as the face. The procedure employs the same mechanism: it targets the melanin in unwanted hair follicles and destroys them, preventing future hair growth. It is effective on all facial areas including the upper lip, chin, certain areas around the brows, and cheeks. To completely remove unwanted hair follicles from your face, you might need 6-8 sessions of this minimally invasive procedure.
