Arizona Permanent Laser Hair Removal

Permanent laser hair removal is easy to tout among medical centers and health spas that offer it. In truth, laser surgery is still a recent enough phenomenon that data is not yet so extensive as to guarantee 100 percent permanent hair removal. However, laser hair removal does offer safe long-term results and patients often speak of being able to stop shaving for good.

The procedure targets unwanted hair with a laser light calibrated to the pigmentation in each patient's hair. A cooling gel is spread on the skin and the laser fires into the sub-dermal follicles beneath, targeting the roots. Growing hair is stopped and prevented from coming back. Multiple sessions are typical in order to target new growth in affected area. Since hair grows in cycles, new hairs will come in after the initial treatment. Spacing a number of sessions several weeks apart allows the laser hair removal to be more thorough and permanent.

Permanent Laser Hair Removal in Arizona Means No More Shaving

Hair loss of 60 to 80 percent is typical for patients undergoing laser hair removal. Many report permanent hair loss as well--especially those with dark hair against pale skin, which the laser can target more readily--and even if hair comes back, it is usually much thinner and less noticeable than it was before. Experienced technicians can ensure a more painless procedure, and a variety of lasers calibrated at different wavelengths can effectively treat patients with dark skin and/or lighter hair.
