In fact, in beauty salons, laser hair removal is carried out using a variety of devices, for example, such as diode laser hair removal, and with different goals, so let's talk in more detail about only the most effective of them:
• photoepilation is based on the use of diode lasers. Treatment consists of several stages aimed at damaging the hair follicle and any cells responsible for the formation of new hair. Ideal for light and medium skin;
Before starting treatment, it is necessary to consult a dermatologist. The specialist will check whether there are any contraindications to its performance, conduct the necessary assessment of the condition and type of skin and hair, and then select the most favorable and safe type of laser hair removal. Before the procedure itself, a laser test will be conducted, which consists in irradiating the selected part of the skin with a small beam of light.
Effects and cost of laser hair removal
To achieve permanent visible effects of epilation, one procedure will not be enough - depending on the specific case, it should be carried out from 3 to 6, with an interval from 4 to even 12 weeks (depending on the hair growth cycle). In the vast majority of cases, about 30% of previously removed hairs do not grow back after the first procedure.
The cost of the procedure, depending on the selected part of the body for waxing, ranges from PLN 100 to PLN 500. However, it should be remembered that this is the price of one procedure, and to achieve the best result, it is necessary to repeat it several times. Summing up all the costs, it will certainly be a considerable sum, but it should be remembered that, although for many it is a rather significant expense, it is still effective and allows achieving sustainable results.
Advantages and disadvantages of laser hair removal.
In many cases, laser hair removal can be the most convenient and effective method of getting rid of unwanted hair. However, this is a procedure that must be approached wisely, taking into account all its advantages and disadvantages. The main arguments in favor of laser hair removal are:
• high efficiency and durability (compared to other known methods of hair removal),
• a sense of comfort – thanks to hair removal, we will not be ashamed of visible and unnecessary hair.
And what about the disadvantages of laser hair removal? One of its biggest disadvantages, of course, is the fact that not everyone can join it, because there are certain situations in which it will not be useful for health.
Who should not choose laser hair removal?
For obvious reasons, laser hair removal procedures for pregnant women are excluded. However, this is not the only group that has to refrain from holding it due to health reasons. Treatment is also not a good solution in the following cases:
• when the epidermis is seriously damaged,
• when taking drugs from the photosensitizing group (mainly steroids, vitamin A, retinoids, antidepressants, as well as some antibiotics and herbs),
• when there is a tendency to discoloration of the skin,
• with such diseases as epilepsy, insulin-dependent diabetes or cancer,
• in the presence of atypical skin changes,
• with skin diseases, such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis or mycosis,
• if there is a violation of skin pigmentation.
In many cases, after laser epilation, skin color changes are observed in the places where it was performed, in addition, people with dark complexions may develop blisters after the procedure.
Laser hair removal is an effective and safe procedure, which must be carried out by a specialist, using high-quality equipment and observing all the necessary procedures. Therefore, before making a final decision to carry out the procedure, you should familiarize yourself with various offers and reviews of individual beauty salons or clinics of aesthetic medicine.
