Throughout human history, people have burned, scraped, shaved, and waxed unwanted facial and body hair in the hope of attaining smooth skin. But these methods only provide temporary relief because the hair grows back. For long-term results, some individuals have turned to Laser hair removal Atlanta to destroy the follicles that produce the hair growth. This procedure is safe for most skin tones and produces superior results compared to traditional methods.
Does laser completely remove hair forever?
Lasers work by directing pulses of light into the pigmented hair follicles. The melanin in the follicles absorbs the light, which damages the follicle and slows future hair growth. The treatment can be performed anywhere on the body, but it is most popular on the legs, underarms, face, and bikini area.
The most common side effects of laser hair removal are redness or swelling, which resolves quickly. Other side effects are darkening or lightening of the treated area, but these changes are rare and are usually limited to the areas directly exposed to the laser. The best way to minimize these side effects is to avoid sun exposure before and after your laser hair removal treatments.
