What is Hair Removal Laser

A hair removal laser is basically a cosmetic device used to remove unwanted hair that grows on some parts of the human body. Moreover, hair removal treatment uses a laser to remove hair. In this procedure, different machines use a concentrated laser beam on the targeted area to be absorbed by the unique pigments found in the hair.

This process causes the light energy to transform into heat energy, which inhibits the hair follicles from producing more hair in those areas. The damage caused by heat to the hair follicles causes a delay in the growth of future hair.

Hair Removal Laser might effectively delay hair growth for an extended period, but it is not always a permanent solution to unwanted hair. The standard treatment locations include the back, arms, legs, upper lip, armpits, chin, and the bikini line. The main goal for laser hair removal is to absorb the light by the hair pigment and not the skin. This way, it does not have any adverse effects on the skin or its colour.

Benefits of Hair Laser Removal 

Hair Removal Laser is used to remove excessive or unwanted hair from different parts of the body. This problem is addressed mainly by women who are concerned about the amount of hair on their skin. Mainly in places such as armpits, chin, upper lips, and the waist area. Once the treatment is completed, you will not have to worry about any unwanted hair growth in those areas.

Skin type and hair colour have different effects and symptoms, and they vary from person to person. For example, dark colour skin with tattoos shows negative results on the body, and it is recommended not to go with hair removal laser treatment under these conditions. The lasers used for the therapy focus mainly on the darker, coarse hair selectively while leaving the skin untouched and undamaged.

Moreover, the procedure or treatment is speedy; each portion or pulse of the laser can treat countless hair simultaneously. Thus, the laser covers the size of a coin every second. Areas such as the upper lip can take a minute, whereas more prominent areas such as legs, armpits, or the back can take up to an hour.

Apart from that, the majority of the patients that undergo laser hair removal treatment have permanent hair loss after taking four to six sessions.

Hair Removal Laser Side Effects

The patients will notice that the colour of their skin will look similar to skin that has been sunburned after the session. The effects soon occur after a day or two, and the treated skin resembles sunburned skin. Moisturizes and cool compresses can help treat the area.

If the face has been treated with laser, a patient might feel blisters forming on the skin’s surface, and it is recommended that they do not apply any chemicals such as makeup on their face as it may cause itching and rashes. In addition to that, blisters are an infrequent symptom of hair laser removal. They can occur in patients that have a darker skin tone or darker skin complexions.

Other side effects include swelling, rash, redness, and scars on the skin. However, the permanent consequences of scarring and skin colour changes are rare, so you don’t have to worry in that regard. Over the next month, you will notice that your treated hair is beginning to fall out. Applying sunscreen prevents temporary changes in the colour of the treated skin.

As mentioned above, the risks and side effects of laser hair removal vary with skin type, hair colour, and treatment plan. Common side effects may also include changes in pigment that cause greying of hair and excessive growth of hair near the targeted area. Patients are advised not to target eyebrows, eyelids, or any other sensitive area due to the possibility of injuries.

Safety measures to take after the treatment

Once you have undergone laser hair removal treatment from a skilled and experienced doctor, you will be given specific instructions by your doctor. Such instructions will include staying out of the sun as the exposure to the sun on your sensitive skin will cause symptoms, so whenever you go out in the sun, wear sunscreen to protect your exposed skin.

Moreover, your doctor will advise you to avoid any skin creams that might darken your skin. You might be prescribed a skin bleaching cream in most cases. Other hair removal products such as wax, plucking, electrolysis, or creams will disturb the hair follicle. Therefore, patients should avoid such methods for at least four weeks before treatment.

In addition, shaving the treated area is recommended one day before you undergo the laser treatment as it can risk the chances of surface skin damage from burnt hair through the laser.

Hair Removal Laser treatment and cost in Pakistan

Due to the access and availability of hair removal laser machines, Pakistan is also conducting treatments in several of its cities, such as Islamabad and Lahore. Laser hair removal treatments vary from city to city and;

• The size of the targeted area that is being treated
• Number of sessions required
• Depending on the type of doctor that will perform the procedure

The average price of hair removal laser machines is between 4,000 to 10,000 Pakistani rupees. Many patients in Islamabad have had positive results within two sessions. Royal Cosmetic surgery clinic is available in Islamabad, and they charge around 3,000 to 20,000 Pakistani rupees, depending on some factors.

Many Muslim brothers and sisters raise questions about whether laser hair removal techniques are permissible in Islam or not. Worry not! These treatments are generally acceptable in Islam.

Hair Removal Laser at home

Laser hair removals used in appliances at home are not as effective as the ones used by professional doctors. The lasers that can be used at home are also available, but they might cause minor hair reduction. Moreover, research suggests that these hair removal devices are cosmetic and not medical, which is ineffective as the treatments are done at a doctor’s office.

However, there are no extensive studies that indicate that these home machines are any safer and effective. If you ever choose to use hair removal devices at home, it is highly recommended that you follow the instructions given in the manual along with the device. Following the instructions included in the manual is essential in preventing any injuries such as eye injuries.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What is the best laser for permanent hair removal?

Q: What is the average cost of Hair laser removal in Pakistan?

A: Every clinic has its range of prices for laser hair removal procedures in various cities. The fees range from 3,000 to 20,000 Pakistani rupees or maybe more, depending upon the skills and experience.

Q: Are there any chances of cancer in the laser hair removal procedure?

A: There is little to no radiation used in the lasers, and only a minimal amount is exacted on the skin’s surface. Therefore, laser treatments do not cause any risk of cancer.

Q: Can laser treatment remove grey hair?

A: Any different colours of hair other than black have little to no pigment in them. The hair pigments can absorb light energy released by the laser. Thus, it is difficult for lasers to detect and treat grey, white, or blonde hair types. Therefore, we can conclude that laser hair removal is an ineffective treatment for grey hair.

Q: Is laser a better method than Waxing?

A: When you want to remove unwanted hair from different parts of your body, the laser is the best method for long-lasting results. On the other hand, Waxing does not result in permanent hair removal, and the hair can grow back in the targeted area after a few days or one week.

Therefore, laser treatment is a better option to opt for rather than waxing every two weeks or so. If you are also worried about ingrown hair, the laser is the better option to destroy hair follicles.
