WHAT, WHY AND HOW OF LASER HAIR REMOVAL IN GURGAON





 What is Laser?

Laser stands for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. The laser is a single wavelength or one colour of light.



What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser Hair removal is a process used to remove unwanted body hair with the help of a laser machine. The machine focuses a beam of laser light at the hair follicles of the area which is to be treated. The laser light then gets absorbed by the melanin (pigment present in the hair roots) which is why the hair follicles get destroyed and stop its future growth.



Is it only reduction, not removal?
The real term which is used is laser hair reduction because reduction occurs in terms of the thickness of hair, in terms of hairs and the rate of growth. The removal of hair happens after the reduction treatment where few maintenance sessions are needed to remove the rest of the hair. The required sessions depend on the area to be treated example areas like female facial hairs, underarms and private parts require more maintenance when compared with arms, legs and other big parts of the body. So, Laser hair reduction is more precise than laser hair removal in terms.



What is the best laser for hair removal?
There are many types of Lasers out there in the market example Diode and long pulse Nd: YAG. These lasers are the most popular in the Asian setups.  With the new technology, the process of laser hair removal has become more easy and painless with the help of new generation diode laser. For instance, at Garekars M.D. Dermatology Clinic in Gurgaon they use Meet SOPRANO PRO (810 nm diode, ALMA LASERS) SOPRANO PRO which is a step up from the technology which is currently available in leading aesthetic clinics. This latest model offers an additional stamping mode which is ideal for stubborn chin hair growth with nil risk of paradoxical hair growth stimulation. They use FDA approved machines to provide the latest and safest option available in aesthetics to their clients.



What is IPL?
IPL full form is Intense Pulsed Light. IPL epilators are not a laser. The Intense pulsed light (IPL) uses xenon flash lamps which emits the full spectrum light.



How many Treatment sessions are needed?
The sessions depend on the area to be treated, coarseness of hair, skin colour, any underlying hormonal imbalance and sex of the patient. Most of the dermatologist recommends an average of 5-8 sessions.

Why do I need so many sessions?
The growth of hair occurs in these phases anagen- the growing stage, telogen- the resting stage and catagen- the falling stage. The Laser can only affect the anagen phase hairs (actively growing hair follicles). After the session, the hairs which were in resting stage at that particular time starts to regrow and those hairs get treated laser in the next hair reduction session. This process is continued to target all the hairs and this is why several sessions are needed for laser hair removal.  

How much time does a session take?
The time depends on the area that is being treated. Large areas may take up to 3 hrs whereas small areas like underarms or face only require 15-20 minutes.

What is the gap between consecutive sessions?
The Hormone-dependent growth areas like underarms, bikini, face etc. have an average gap of growth b/w 2 sessions 4-6 weeks and for other body parts, it may take 6- 10 weeks.
