Arizona Painless Permanent Hair Removal

Painless permanent hair removal usually means laser surgery, since other methods are either less permanent or involve a great deal of discomfort. The key lies in the calibration of the laser: the wavelength needs to match the pigmentation in the hair to be removed and be able to distinguish it from the pigmentation in surrounding tissue.

Dark hair against pale skin is the easiest to remove. A laser with a relatively low wavelength, such as an Alexandrite laser, can make the distinction and treat the hair follicle in a comparatively painless manner. With darker skin and/or lighter hair, however, the laser cannot distinguish between them as clearly. It may treat the pigmentation in surrounding tissue as well as that in the hair, which is the cause of most discomfort in laser hair removal treatments. A laser with a wider wavelength, such as an Nd: yag or Diode laser, can treat darker skin in a more painless way and ensure that the results are more permanent.
