Laser hair removal is a good way to get rid of hair that you don't want to shave or wax on a regular basis. The process targets the hair follicle with an intense beam of light. When the light hits the follicle of the hair, it creates an intense heat that damages the follicle and impedes future hair growth. According to The Mayo Clinic, multiple laser treatments are usually necessary to prevent hair growth for the long term. This treatment can be performed with a variety of machines.
Ruby Laser Machines
Ruby Laser Machines are suitable for use on white skin, according to LaserHairRemoval-Info.com. It uses light with a short wavelength, and produces long-term results in a short number of sessions. Laser Hair Removal Review warns against using this treatment for people with dark skin, as it may cause changes in the pigment.
Alexandrite Laser Machines
Laser Hair Removal Review recommends using the Alexandrite Laser Machine for patients with white skin. Like the Ruby Laser Machines, this short wavelength system can cause lightening or darkening to the skin, which means that those with dark skin should go with another option.
Pulsed Light (IPL) Laser Systems
These hair removal machines deliver a wide range of light, and are safe for use on all skin types. The Laser Hair Removal Review is impressed by the 50 percent hair reduction that these machines produce after only two treatments. They recommend the machine for all colors of hair, and point out that this machine is the best on dense areas of hair growth. A 3-month series of treatments can keep hair out of the area for up to four years.
Diode Laser Systems
LaserHairRemoval-Info.com also recommends diode laser systems for patients with fair skin. Although you will get results with this system, those seeking long term-hair loss are better off with the IPL lasers as long-term hair loss as the result of this treatment has yet to be documented.
