Is waxing, shaving, tweezing, and other painful hair removal methods being phased out by laser hair removal? Laser hair removal advertisements abound, but does it really work? Dynamic Clinic answers the fundamental questions that everyone should be aware of before undergoing laser hair removal in Dubai.
What exactly is the procedure for laser hair removal?
The primary goal of laser hair removal is to target and destroy hair follicles with a laser. Hair will not grow back once the hair follicle has died.
How can I obtain the most effective laser hair removal treatment?
For best results, multiple treatments are required. I recommend at least 12 treatments, but there is no set number of treatments that a person can have in order to achieve optimal results. The key to success is to maintain consistency. Make sure to return on time, which is usually 4-6 weeks depending on the body area.
Is there any part of the body that people should stay away from?
I can laser almost anywhere, but I never use it to shape my eyebrows. It's not precise enough for brow shaping, and it's too close to the eyes.
Is it painful?
The procedure is typically not painful, but certain areas of the body, such as the bikini line or upper lip areas, may be more sensitive. Because pain tolerance differs from person to person, it is impossible to say. If a patient experiences discomfort during the procedure, a topical numbing cream can be applied one hour before the appointment to provide relief.
What risks exist?
Welts, scarring, pigment changes such as hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation, or the possibility that the hair cannot be permanently removed and grows back are all risks.
Is it compatible with all hair colours?
On dark, coarse hair, laser hair removal works best. It will not respond to red, white, or blond hair because the laser light looks for dark pigment in the hair follicle and will not detect lighter hair.
Is laser hair removal suitable for all skin tones?
All types of skin can be treated with the right laser. Because the laser looks for dark pigment, the lighter your skin, the safer the procedure. Darker skin types, such as Asian, Hispanic, or African skin, must be treated with greater caution so that the laser does not burn the skin or disrupt the pigmentation.
Will laser hair removal be affected by pregnancy?
Because pregnancy changes hormone levels, which can cause hair to grow back, I've seen hair brows grow back in pregnant women. Things usually return to normal after a few laser treatments after the baby is born and hormones return to normal.
What are your thoughts on Groupon?
Be wary of Groupon offers for salons and spas. There isn't always a doctor on hand to keep track of the treatments.
Is laser hair removal in a salon or spa safe?
I recommend that patients visit a doctor's office, preferably one that specializes in dermatology or plastic surgery and has a doctor on staff who understands the complexities of skin.
