LASER HAIR REMOVAL

Photoepilation, or 'hair removal using light,' has gained dramatic popularity over the past several years. Excellent clinical results, as well as low-risk success for many practices have contributed greatly to the sensation of this amazing procedure.

While many methods can eliminate unwanted hair, very few can eliminate hair regrowth while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. And photoepilation is quickly becoming the most popular.

Lasers and light sources use the principle of selective photothermolysis to eliminate hair and its potential regrowth without damaging the surrounding skin. During a treatment, light passes through the skin and is absorbed by the melanin in the hair shaft. This absorption raises the temperature of the hair follicle and thermally destroys the cells responsible for regrowth. The attributes of the light (wavelength, pulse duration and power) are chosen to ensure damage to these cells and not the rest of the skin.
