Illinois Laser Hair Removal Facts

Laser hair removal has become a popular alternative to electrolysis for many women seeking to reduce unwanted growth. The technique has been approved for both body and facial use and is relatively safe, although some side effects may occur.

Important Facts about Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is less painful and more permanent than waxing and faster than electrolysis. Many patients report long-lasting results and a noticeable reduction in unwanted growth. If successful, the user will never need to worry about growth again. Before a decision can be made, though, some other facts about light-based hair removal should be considered:

  • Not all those who receive this treatment see lasting results.
  • Some patients experience permanent discoloration after treatment.
  • Laser hair removal can be expensive.

When discussing this form of treatment with a doctor or esthetician, make sure that all of the benefits and side effects have been covered. If a licensed professional decides that laser treatment is likely to work well and with few to no side effects, make sure that the clinic or spa where the treatment is performed has qualified personnel, clean facilities and many satisfied customers. These facts play a big part in the success of the treatment.
