Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is a technique for removing undesirable hair from the face or other places on the body. Since every single hair on the body comes from its own follicular unit or hair follicle; destroying this unit removes the existing hair and prevents the unit from growing hair in the future. In laser hair removal, light energy from a laser is used to destroy the hair follicle. Hair in the treated region may not begin to grow back for several months making laser hair removal a permanent hair removal technique—more permanent than most other hair removal options. In fact, with repeated treatments, laser hair removal may prevent hair growth in the treated area for greater than six months.
