Illinois Professional Laser Hair Removal

Professional laser hair removal is one of two options that returns long-lasting results. In the hands of a skilled technician, the procedure permanently reduces growth in the desired area.

Professional Laser Hair Removal

Professional laser hair removal returns great results for most of the people who choose to try it. This is how it works:

  1. The technician uses a hand-held wand to target specific areas, usually a few centimeters in diameter.
  2. The device is activated and a beam of light hits the target area.
  3. The light penetrates the skin and targets the melanin in the root bulb.
  4. The heat from the light burns away the root bulb.
  5. The heat in the root bulb permanently damages the surrounding follicle, making it incapable of regenerating.
  6. The wand is moved, and the process is repeated until the entire area has been treated.

Laser hair removal can have side effects, both temporary and permanent. Changes in skin pigmentation are common and usually temporary, though some people experience permanent changes or scarring. One of the best ways to avoid serious side effects is to make sure that the technician is experienced and well trained. Make sure to look for an establishment that has both good estheticians and medical personnel on site.
