Body Hair
There are a few different reasons why laser hair removal might be the treatment for you, including PCOS or deranged thyroid menopause – where the reason for excess hair growth is hormonal levels. Also, laser hair removal encourages the hair to grow straight, so it’s a great solution for ingrown hairs.
While most of us may be thinking that dark, coarse hair in females is only a cosmetic concern, the truth is that this hair may be an indication of an underlying hormonal imbalance, which needs to be diagnosed and treated. By getting a laser under the supervision of a trained dermatologist, you will receive the right medical management and the amazing laser technology under one roof.
There can be various different reasons for excessive hair growth such as:
*Genetic
*Some women experience excessive hair growth during Pregnancy
*Hormonal imbalance for e.g. PCOS in women
*Thyroid can be a reason for excessive hair growth
*Side effects of certain medicine
*IR Issues;
*Frequently waxing or tweezing the unwanted hair may eventually lead to excessive hair growth.
Laser hair removal works by heating the follicle and destroying the hair at the root. The skin around the hair remains unaffected.
Laser hair removal is a safe and effective treatment for the most common areas of the body, including the face, back, legs and arms. For the most delicate areas, including the underarm and bikini line, laser hair removal is a gentle process.
During the treatment the patient might feel sensations on the skin which is tolerable. In case of patients who feel more sensitive a local anaesthesia can be given before the treatment.
While some patients may experience long term hair removal your results depend on the characteristics of your hair, treatment area, and hormonal issues.
Upto eight treatments are needed for maximum results for most of the patients and the treatments are typically scheduled at an interval as suggested by the dermatologist. Only “touch-up” treatments are required after your first series of treatments.
