Laser hair removal is a popular hair removal alternative to electrolysis, waxing, and shaving. It is not an overnight solution, since it requires multiple sessions; but unlike waxing and electrolysis, it can be an almost permanent change.When laser light is absorbed by the hair bulb and follicle it converts to heat energy which destroys the hair bulb halting future hair growth. There is some discomfort during the procedure, but it is usually well tolerated. Some areas are more sensitive than others. Our modern equipment has a cooling mechanism which greatly lesson any unpleasantness.
