Laser Hair Removal Bellevue Information

Traditional hair removal techniques like shaving, waxing and plucking have been used for many years, but they can be painful and time consuming and only provide temporary results. Until the late 90's many patients turned to electrolysis to get rid of unwanted hair. While electrolysis can provide permanent results, it treats each hair individually, therefore can take many years to complete. The introduction of laser hair removal has completely revolutionized unwanted hair relief.

Lasers have been used for many years for a variety of medical and cosmetic procedures, laser hair removal being one of them. Laser hair removal is a non-invasive procedure that safely removes unwanted hair without damaging the structures of the skin. The laser is placed over the treatment area and the laser energy penetrates the skin, targeting unwanted hair follicles. The laser energy is transformed into heat, which disables the hair follicles and leaves the surrounding skin undamaged.

Laser hair removal is a weakening process; therefore it cannot remove all hair in one treatment. 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. Patients can trust that the laser hair removal procedure is a safe, fast and effective way to permanently reduce any and all unwanted hair.
