5- Is Laser Hair Removal treatment painful ?  


We know that some of the earlier aesthetic lasers delivered painful pulses.But that was in old times now this technology has improved so don,t fear a similar experience if you have been treated one of those painful devices in past.Pain is subjective hence can be influenced by personal feelings.

Laser hair removal is pain free if certain conditions are met e.g less sensitive skin , expert therapist , using numbing cream , controlling stress , pain tolerance , maintaining level of comfort etc . Even in some cases numbing cream is not necessary with laser treatment. But if some one,s skin is sensitive or pain tolerance is low or different then an appropriate numbing cream e.g EMLA can be used.

Laser hair removal pain is described  like rubber band snapping against the skin . Laser hair removal treatment  uses special cooling system that lowers the temperature of the skin at the treatment area before, during and after laser exposure . so the treatment is generally not painful and can be tolerated.

Mostly people think tanning is dangerous and can occur due to laser hair removal treatment,but this
is false for every type of skin cure.Actually the problem is that in tanning a lot of heat accumulates in your skin because laser is used to heat up the area under treatment.Therefore treatment sessions must apart from each other making sure that there is enough time between each session so that to avoid overheating of your skin ( Max 1-2 weeks ).

10- What to see when choosing your laser hair removal therapist ?


The following four things you should consider when choosing a laser hair removal treatment provider :-

The Clinic : Choose a clinic having good media comments and ratings. Assess the clinic with your needs and get the answer that it,s main priority will be your desired result.Schedule at least 3-5 clinics before making any commitments.Don,t fall for marketing hype , these can vary by as much as 100-200% . So only consider their expertise and knowledge during your schedule.Avoid clinics using any inappropriate pressure building risky methods .

The Laser : Choose a best laser for your skin . Best lasers are mostly expensive because they are precise in heat usage on the other hand cheap lasers are not precise and may cause pain or some serious side effects.Here also do not fall for marketing hype.Schedule with your therapist considering laser choice and it,s setting for your skin.

The Laser Operator : Laser operator skills of operating laser and his experience matters a lot . Practical experience must be considered than the education on paper.So laser treatments should be performed by fully trained and certified practitioners.

The price : Prices vary from clinic to clinic,specialist to specialist and place to place.The price or cost of laser hair removal treatment also depends on the size , complexity and some other factors of the area treated . Discounts or special offers also affect price of laser hair removal treatment. Number of treatment is another cost / price determinant for laser hair removal treatment . office settings like Spa , Salon , Surgeon etc also impact costs and prices of laser hair removal procedure.

11- Who can actually perform a laser therapy ?


Laser hair removal treatments should be performed by fully trained and certified practitioners. They must have skills , experience and knowledge of this therapy.

12- Why does it take a number of treatments to clear an area unwanted hair ?



Number of treatments depend on area being treated , thickness , hair density , hair color , hair texture, skin type and your punctuality also determines it. So it varies person to person . Generally legs and backs treatment takes two hours and a half ,while an upper lip and ears tops take 8-10 minutes . The under arms and front of neck treatment can take up to 20 minutes.

Hair cycle also determines this. Different body parts have different hair growing cycle so when will hair grow you need a treatment . In dormant phase when no hair are growing there will be no much absorption of heat in target area because there will be no enough pigments to absorb that heat.

13- What are the alternatives of laser hair removal treatment?


The most common alternatives to this are tweezing , plucking , home waxing , hair bleach and chemical  depilatory such as  Magic , Veet , Nair etc.

14- What type of sensations i can feel other than pain during treatment by laser hair removal ?


The nature of the laser is to use  heat for the treatment so it is possible that the heat generated by laser may cause some minor burning sensation during the treatment but it will cease after the treatment.

15- How exactly laser hair removal pain or sensation feels ?


Generally it,s free of pain.But if there is some discomfort or a pain during each pulse,the feeling
will resemble a rubber band snapping against your skin for just a quick second .

16- How to handle laser hair removal pain or sensation ?

Any kind of discomfort during the treatment can be handled by using cooling gel , numbing cream , setting laser machine properly for treatment and expert staff .

17- What is the difference between a laser and IPL - Intense Pulsed Light ?


Laser : It uses powerful laser radiations heat energy on a targeted hair follicle.The heat damages the targeted follicle and thereby preventing any future growth.This heat energy absorption into targeted follicle depends on correct wavelength of light and SPTL( selective photothermolysis ) . Selective photothermolysis ( SPTL ) means that the wavelength of light emitted by the laser will target precisely a particular tissue color , ensuring that the resulting heat damage is localized to that targeted color area only. In laser hair removal the target area is melanin which is a group of pigments found in the hair follicle which are responsible for giving hair it,s color.So these are destroyed by absorbing heat energy and hence destroyed.



IPL: Every one should know that Intense Pulse Light ( IPL ) treatment is not a laser hair removal treatment . Both methods work with same practices but the laser machines are better and precise in terms of wavelength and time duration for particular pigment area but IPLs are not precise . In IPL technology a big group of lasers is being used all at once. That is why  IPL is more risky than lasers in terms of side effects e.g burning due to intense heat.

20- Why do i need a free consultation with my therapist before making any commitments for laser hair removal treatment ?

It is very important to schedule with your local doctor before starting laser treatment procedure to discuss and seek knowledge whether your skin type and hair are suitable for laser therapy or not and how many laser treatment procedures do you need ?


There must be a patch test for your skin also to confirm that you don,t have any sensitivity towards lasers. Your discussion with your laser treatment doctor and observation will also help you in getting an idea whether he / she has relevant , knowledge , expertise or not and what will be the cost / price of laser treatment So after seeking this information you can make an informed decision for your skin hair laser treatment procedures.


21- Is laser hair removal therapy | treatment | procedure safe ?


As for i know laser hair removal treatment or therapy is approved by FDA - Federal Drug Administration of US and also it is practiced world wide . So it means it is safe if applied appropriately.But before any commitments with your therapist initial free consultation and patch test is recommended for your safety and informed decision making.


22-What is  laser hair removal treatment Growth Cycle? How this relate to hair removal treatment ?

Hair Growth / Production Cycle: Hair grow on each body part in a cycle and that hair growth cycle of each body part is different.Term cycle means a natural process of hair growth which starts from a point and ends at a point while passing through different stages of it,s growth or production .So understanding hair growth stages is very important if you are going for a hair removal treatment.This will help you in making an informed decision regarding number of sessions required with how many weeks apart.


There are three main stages of hair growth cycle or hair production cycle ,  which are given below:

1-Anagen
2-Catagen 
3-Telogen.

1-Anagen ( Very fast and active )

This is the first stage of hair production cycle and this is the most fast and active hair production stage.At this stage hair fiber grows at first time.When this stage completes, the hair growth cycle automatically transfers into next stage.

2-Catagen ( Slow and club hair )

This is the second stage of hair production cycle.It starts when first stage ends.
It means active growth of hair is ended now.This stage continues for some weeks and
then makes a club of hair.After this stage hair growth enters in the next stage of production.

3-Telogen ( Tiredness and Resting )

This is the final stage of the hair growth cycle or production cycle.
At this stage hair are tired and need some rest , which means a noticeable loss of hair.
On a daily basis at noticeable level hair shedding and loss occurs at this stage .
After this stage the whole cycle starts again from start to end.

How hair production cycle relates to laser therapy ? Laser hair removal therapy is done during these hair growth cycles and not in dormant time when there is no hair growth.So it is effective in anagen stage of growth , which is active and very fast hair growth stage.Hence, you need a number of treatments in order to destroy each follicle of hair as it enters the anagen phase of growth after a certain time period .



23-What type of laser hair removal machines are popular  ? 


There are five popular types of hair removal lasers in the market which are being used for laser hair removal treatment . These are given below :

Laser hair removal therapy or laser hair removal treatment is a world wide procedure for the removal of unwanted ugly body hair. Dermatologists have covered its methodology , safety , effectiveness in details that is why now it is accepted world wide and has become one of the most common pain free cosmetic practice. Here we are going to explain  laser hair removal information regarding it,s working .

So finally we are going to answer the question , laser hair removal how does it work ? The answer to this question  is , this a practice of removing unwanted body hair via a long pulse laser . This treatment uses powerful laser heat energy on a targeted hair follicle . The heat of  laser light when contacts with hair follicle it destroys hair follicle and disables future hair growth .
 
This heat energy absorption into skin depends on correct wavelength of light and SPTL( selective photothermolysis ).Selective photothermolysis ( SPTL ) means that the wavelength of light emitted by the laser will target precisely a particular tissue color , ensuring that the resulting heat damage is localized to that targeted color area only. In laser hair removal the target area is melanin which is a group of pigments found in the hair follicle which are responsible for giving hair it,s color.So these are destroyed by absorbing light and hence destroyed. In SPTL only black or brown hair can be targeted successfully .





 

The target area is heated up to 75ยบ C for 1 minute via computer controlled technology so that the selective target under procedure is destroyed.This does not harm the surrounding skin.The amount of energy and timing are very important in laser hair removal treatment  because the amount of energy is the amount which can destroy that target area and the time is how long it will take to destroy it.Time and energy required can be altered by laser therapist when it is necessary in laser technology.

 As we know this is a practice of removing unwanted body hair via a long pulse laser.The LHR treatment is done by a specially trained and certified laser specialist or a doctor by pointing the laser at your shaved skin.

Laser hair removal treatment is done during hair growth periods . Hair growth occurs according to different body parts hair growth cycle .So mostly 6-8 treatments are needed at intervals of 8-12 weeks to disable hair growth at a specific body part .





Laser hair  removal (LHR)  is mostly done on all body parts having hair like as toes , fingers ,areolas ( nipple area ) , underarm, pubic area , inner bum , facial areas ,abdomen , upper lips ,chin , back , thighs , legs , buttocks , arms , neck , chest  , female and male brazilian , cleavage , ear lobes and beard area for men. In other words laser hair removal therapy can be applied effectively every where on all body parts.

But here another  question arises  " Does laser hair removal really work for permanent hair removal ? So,my answer to the question do laser hair removal work  permanently _ is that it just shreds hair to a minimum low level and extends the hair growth timing  , but does not removes hair permanently .

Bottom Line : Laser hair removal therapy uses laser technology light energy via a long pulse on the targeted hair follicle of  a specific body part during it,s hair growth time . The light energy destroys the hair follicle at growth stage hence preventing any future growth.This procedure is repeated every time when hair regrowth occurs at the area being treated . So it takes time to complete it e.g average 5-10 treatments at intervals of 8-12 weeks. Finally hair get shredded to an acceptably low level or may be permanently removed .

This is a common initial question of users of this technology.Mostly it is not , it,s pain free hair removal treatment and it,s comfortable too especially when compared with other hair removal methods . Even in some cases numbing cream is not necessary with laser treatment. But if some one,s skin is sensitive or pain tolerance is low or different then an appropriate numbing cream e.g EMLA can be used.

Using these creams is safest option for small areas specially. It is very important to use a cream that is properly compounded otherwise it can result in adverse side effects or even death . So the clients should consult with their doctor or there must be a patch test first.Laser hair removal,removes all the hair of skin in one pulse .

Laser hair removal pain is described  like rubber band snapping against the skin . Laser hair removal treatment technology uses special cooling system that lowers the temperature of the skin at the treatment area before, during and after laser exposure . so the treatment is generally not painful and can be tolerated.


As laser hair removal pain depends on the person and how sensitive the skin is ? As well as the area being treated , stress , fatigue , pain tolerance , menstrual cycle and the level of comfort or discomfort. This can be handled through use of some additional cooling devices like Candela Gentle Lase , Soprano BLU lasers . These devices decrease sensitivity during treatment by additional cooling.





Don,t use Caffeine Ibuprofen etc before treatment as it can make your skin more sensitive. You can take only mild pain reliever e.g Paracetamol.

Some areas like facial are very sensitive than others like legs .But surely we can say that laser hair removal is an alternative to painful methods of removing hair e.g waxing , tweezing or electrolysis .


Note : We know that some of the earlier aesthetic lasers delivered painful pulses.But that was in old times now this technology has improved so don,t fear a similar experience if you have been treated one of those painful devices in past.Pain is subjective hence can be influenced by personal feelings.

It should be noted that not feeling any pain during treatment may be an indication that the laser is set too low to produce permanent results for your skin.

At the end comparing laser hair removal with other various hair removal methods like waxing , plucking , tweezing and epilation the general consensus is that this treatmentis less painful and quicker.

Real Self says about laser hair removal pain :

Laser hair removal not too painful. The level of discomfort depends on the treated area, the texture of the hair, and skin. Darker skin people are more sensitive because they have more pigment, not just in the hair, but in their skin as well. Patients with dark and coarse hair experience more discomfort as well

"Thomas Fitzpatrick Skin Chart ". Fitzpatrick  chart is based on his observations of responses to sun exposure and the degree of burning and tanning of people skins.His skin classification chart is very familiar to dermatologists and is used in determining skin type for laser hair removal. Fitzpatrick chart divided skin into six types which are given below:

Type 1 : Characteristics of this type of skin are very sensitive , always burns and never tans .Skin color examples are white , very fair , red blonde hair , blue eyes , freckles , Albino .

Type 5 : Characteristics of this type of skin are easy tanning , rarely burns and sun insensitive.Skin color examples are dark brown  , Mid Eastern skin types , Hispanic

Type 6 : Characteristics of this type of skin are sun insensitive  , never burns and tans very easily.Skin color examples are Black , African , Mid Eastern , Afro - American.

What are the side effects of laser hair removal procedure ? Is it safe or not ? Is laser technology is safe for hair removal procedure ?. This is the most concerned and common question about laser technology and it,s procedure and application in hair removal treatment . Here we will explain it.

Laser hair removal is the first and most popular tailored and decorated procedure . Hair removal by laser technology is  most researched and well known method of removing unwanted hair.This uses low heat level to remove hair safely . LHR treatment has provided safe and effective treatment for thousands of patients around the globe.Lasers do not remove skin so the risks are very low .

Laser Hair Removal treatment is also very flexible as patients can return to work easily or can play immediately . Before this treatment there will be an informed consent that explains all possible risks and side effects.

There are ten common temporary side effects of this treatment :

1- Redness for some days like sunburn
2- Itching
3- Follicular Edema ( temporary swelling of hair root )
4- Skin Irritation
5- Tingling or Feeling numbness
6- Skin brightening for some hours





The following side effects are indicative of inappropriate laser type or settings :

7- Minor Pigment changes
8- Purpura ( purple coloring of skin )
9- Crusting /Scab Formation
10- Bruising

The two most serious side effects are skin discoloration and a flare of acne after LHR treatment, but these two are not very common.

With the right machine & sufficient expertise , no body gets any damage to his / her skin . But some times rarely some patients may experience blisters or scarring.

Before starting any treatment each client should get a free consultation and patch test with a 24 hour waiting almost to ensure that skin is safe and test is clear. There must also be a full medical test before any LHR treatment .

The laser hair removal treatment procedure are also safe. Both client and specialist wear goggles , whilst the laser is directed onto the skin. when this is carried out by trained specialist the process is safe and completely safe.




Prices vary from clinic to clinic,specialist to specialist and place to place.The price or cost of laser hair removal treatment also depends on the size , complexity and some other factors of the area treated . Discounts or special offers also affect price of laser hair removal treatment. Number of treatment is another cost / price determinant for laser hair removal treatment . office settings like Spa , Salon , Surgeon etc also impact costs and prices of laser hair removal procedure. 

Hair removal cost also depends on some special considerations or risks involved  e.g who will perform the procedure doctor or assistant and complications like removing tattoos.  

Don,t get into hype of discounts and special offers. Three things you must consider when making an commitment Clinic Reputation , The laser being used and the Laser machine operator expertise.

Every one should compare prices,expertise,types of lasers used and other relevant factors among at least 3-5 clinics in a area before getting started a treatment.Below given average pricing information is used across different locations in US.
