What is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is mainly aimed at melanin, which contains a large amount of melanin in the hair follicle. These melanin preferentially absorbs laser light and converts it into heat energy, causing local high temperature, only destroying the hair follicle without damaging the surrounding skin, so as to achieve the purpose of permanent hair removal, and there are basically no side effects.

Does Laser Hair Removal Affect Perspiration?

Will not. Sweat is discharged from the sweat pores of the sweat glands, and hair grows in the hair follicles. The sweat pores and pores are completely two unrelated channels.

Is Laser Hair Removal Enough? 

Hair growth is divided into anagen phase, catagen phase and telogen phase. Hair in the growth phase contains the most melanin, absorbs the most laser light at this time, and has the best hair removal effect, while the hair follicles in the resting phase have less melanin content and the effect is poor. In a hair area, generally only 1/5-1/3 of the hair is in the growth phase at the same time period. Therefore, it is necessary to wait for the laser effect to be ideal after it is in the growth phase. 

In addition, hair color, thickness, treatment area, etc., will affect the effect. Therefore, 10%-25% hair reduction can be seen after the first treatment. It takes 3-6 treatments in total, with an average of 4 treatments, before the hair is completely removed. The more times, the better the effect. Lip hair is the most difficult to take off, and some even take 8-10 times.
