Laser Hair Removal Lancaster Information

Laser hair removal has completely revolutionized the problem of unwanted hair. With our improved understanding of laser skin interactions and advances in laser technology, successful laser-assisted hair removal has become a reality. Before laser hair removal, the only long term hair removal method was electrolysis, which is permanent, but extremely slow; it can only kill one hair follicle at a time. Laser hair removal has significantly sped up the process by treating hundreds of hair follicles simultaneously

Lasers have been utilized by physicians in both esthetic and medical procedures for over 10 years. As technology has progressed, lasers have been designed to customize to each individual treatment. The laser can be adjusted depending on each individual's skin type and density. This customization assures the best laser hair removal treatments possible.

During the treatment, a laser produces a beam of highly concentrated light that is directed over the area being treated. The pigment located in hair follicles absorbs the light emitted by the Laser. The laser produces precisely controlled pulses of energy that are concentrated in the follicles under the skin. The energy pulse plus the absorption of light causes vaporization of the pigment and the disabling of the follicles in order to eliminate or significantly impede the hair's re-growth.

Laser hair removal cannot remove all hair in one treatment; therefore patients will need multiple treatments in order to effectively reduce unwanted hair. Most patients will need anywhere from 3-6 treatments, but some might need up to 8. Laser hair removal is currently the number one laser treatment performed in the United States; therefore patients can trust that the laser hair removal procedure is a safe, fast and effective way to permanently reduce any and all unwanted hair.
