Arizona Permanent Back Hair Removal

Back hair removal is always an awkward and difficult process--requiring either acrobatic craning or the embarrassing prospect of asking someone to help--and permanent methods of removal make a tremendous amount of sense for that part of the body. Laser hair removal is designed to treat large areas such as the back, and many patients report long-term permanent hair loss of up to 80 percent.

The treatment takes place over a number of sessions: typically three to eight, each spaced a few weeks apart. Because hair comes in cyclically, multiple sessions are required to treat it (laser hair removal targets growing hairs rather than shedding hairs, and hair doesn't grow in all at the same time). The skin is covered with a cooling gel and a laser is applied to the treated area. It is calibrated to a specific wavelength matching the color of the patient's back hair and fires sub-dermally to treat the hair roots without breaking the skin. Hair removal for most patients lasts for several years--with permanent hair loss possible in some--and hair that does come back tends to be thinner and far less noticeable than it was before the procedure.

Patients are advised not to tan or expose themselves to the sun during laser back hair removal, since increased pigmentation in the skin makes it more difficult for the laser to focus on its targets. Mild discomfort is sometimes reported, akin to a stinging sensation. NuU Medspa in Mesa can give detailed advice on its permanent laser back hair removal techniques.
