Choose the right clinic for laser hair reduction

Unwanted body hair is a common concern among men and women. Laser hair reduction treatment is growing increasingly popular to get rid of unwanted body hair. Indeed, the treatment is effective, but the effectiveness largely depends on the technology used and the person carrying out the treatment.

To get the best results from laser hair reduction (LHR) it is crucial to choose the right LHR clinic. This article will discuss everything one needs to know about laser hair reduction and why one should get it done from UnCover clinics.

What is Laser hair reduction treatment?

Laser hair removal/reduction is a medical procedure where unwanted body hair is removed using a concentrated beam of light (laser). Here, the melanin in body hair absorbs the light emitted by the laser. This absorbed light energy is quickly converted to heat. The heat destroys the hair-producing tube-shaped sacs called hair follicles within the skin. 

The entire motive of the process is to stop or delay future hair growth. It might be tough to entirely stop hair growth in a region, but laser hair reduction is highly effective in significantly reducing and delaying hair growth for long periods. However, multiple sessions may be required to see effective results for hair removal. 

What are the benefits of Laser hair reduction treatment?

Listed below are the top benefits of laser hair reduction:

Long-term solution

Traditional hair removal methods like shaving and waxing are not long-term solutions. Laser hair reduction treatment helps destroy the hair follicles, which delays hair growth for a long period.

Pain-free

Hair removal methods like waxing are highly painful and can be messy. However, laser hair reduction treatment is entirely painless and side effects like redness, irritation, and swelling are eliminated. 

More importantly, the treatment removes ingrown hairs, minimizing bumps and inflammation. Also, it is low maintenance and requires only a few touch-ups annually. 

Versatile

Laser hair reduction can be used to effectively delay hair growth in regions like the legs, armpits, upper lip, chin and bikini line. In short, it can remove unwanted hair from almost any part of the body except the eyelid or surrounding area.

Quick and precise results

Laser hair removal sessions do not consume much time. Small body areas like the upper lip, underarms, and bikini line only take 15 minutes. Larger areas of the body may consume more time depending upon the size of the area to be treated. 

It can help a person precisely remove hair from hard-to-reach regions. Particularly the ones on a small skin section. It can also be used to shape eyebrows and beards. 

The laser hair reduction process

• A topical anaesthetic is given usually 20-30 minutes before laser treatment. This step helps to get a comfortable session, especially when dealing with sensitive areas such as the underarm or bikini line.
• Eye protection is given to the person before beginning the laser process.
• The laser settings are tweaked according to the skin and hair type. Thickness, location, and skin colour are a few factors that influence these settings.
• Some clinics may also apply a cold gel to eliminate inflammation and protect the outer skin.
• The laser beam is then carefully run through the area to eliminate the hair follicles. Here a slight warm pinpricking sensation may be felt. The first session usually causes more sensation compared to the upcoming ones.
• The session is completed within a few minutes to an hour based on the treatment region.
• Once the laser hair reduction treatment is done, an ice pack or anti-inflammatory cream can be given to ease discomfort.
