Guide To Laser Hair Removal

Comparison To Other Hair Removal Techniques

Generally, laser hair removal is safer and faster than other methods of hair removal, and it provides longer-lasting results. Most patients report it is much less painful than waxing or electrolysis, and it does not carry the risks of infection and ingrown hairs that shaving and plucking often have. While it is suitable for the majority of body areas, doctors advise against using it for hair removal around the eyebrows or eyelids as this could cause severe eye injury. Laser sessions are more expensive than other hair removal methods performed at home, but the prices are coming down as laser technology improves and becomes more widely available. Anyone concerned about unwanted hair should ask a healthcare professional about the safest and most effective hair removal methods for their particular needs.
