Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal reduces body hair, but how does it do that? Treatments use a laser to disable hair follicles. This damages the ability of the hair to regrow. Each treatment targets the pigment (melanin) in the hair’s follicle. The laser targets each hair follicle and penetrates it with a burst of high-energy light. To protect the skin, the wavelength is calibrated to penetrate only the pigment stored in the follicle. The melanin absorbs the laser’s energy and heats the follicle until an irreversible injury occurs. The damaged follicle can no longer support hair growth. This process is how laser hair removal works and how it results in permanent hair reduction.

Hair grows in stages. Lasers are only valid on hair in the anagen phase. This stage of hair growth is known as the “active” phase. It is during the active period that hair contains the highest levels of melanin. The high level of melanin is necessary during treatment for the laser’s energy to focus on the hair follicle properly.

Since only 20-30% of hair is in the anagen stage at any given time, numerous sessions are required to remove all hair from the targeted area. The number of treatments needed depends on the specific area and the patient’s response to treatment. Typically, 6 to 12 treatments are required to achieve the right amount of permanent hair reduction.

Laser hair removal is FDA-approved to reduce unwanted body hair in targeted areas permanently. When the high-intensity bursts of light damage the follicles of the hair, these follicles can no longer grow. The process makes laser hair removal a permanent solution for reducing hair.
