Who is Laser Hair Removal for?


Not everyone can enjoy laser hair removal and its benefits. There are two things that factor into just who can do it. Such as: Your hair color and your skin color.

These are the main two factors of laser hair removal. Blonde, red, white and grey hair is not recommended for laser hair removal. If you tan you must wait until your tan has faded only if you have dark hair. If you have tanned skin and light hair you do not qualify for laser hair removal.

Laser hair removal is for those that qualify to have their unwanted hair gone. If you have hair on any of the following areas you want removed, laser hair removal is for you.

· Neck
· Upper Lip
· Chest
· Breasts
· Toes
· Back
· Legs
· Fingers
· Abdomen
· Bikini Area
· Pubic Area
· Chin
· Arms
· Face
· Ears
· Hairline
· Shoulders
· Between Brows

Your skin type and skin history will also have an affect on laser hair removal being right for you. Your practitioner will ask you questions about your skin and skin history. You want to be sure you do not lie in any instance. Doing so could result in your skin being damaged after treatment. Remember you are having something done to your body, why bend the truth? Just be honest even if you might be embarrassed for something.

People wanting to do laser hair removal that have light hair can now use Meladine. This is an enhancer for melanin that will give you better results if you have light hair. You apply this before and sometimes even after your laser hair removal session. This is not a drug so you need not to worry there! It is considered a cosmetic. There is no guarantee that comes with it, so you will use it using your own confidence.

If you are looking for a quick way to get rid of hair, laser hair removal is not for you. While this will reduce your hair growth and maybe completely remove it, it is not fast. Depending on the area you want it could take four to six sessions to remove the hair.

If you want a large area done it will take more time whereas a small area such as the chin could take only one to two sessions. The amount of hair will also play a part in how long it will take. Some people think of this as an easy way out, but it is not that simple.

You want to do your research on laser hair removal before you go into it, just like you would any other procedure performed on your body. Not taking the proper precautions could you leave you feeling very unhappy and unsatisfied with your results. Granted your practitioner will do everything they can to inform you about laser hair removal. After treatment you want to know how to take care of the treated area and for how long.

Some people neglect this thinking it will all be fine. This is not always the case and you will want to always follow your practitioner's instructions. Ask any and all questions you can think of and also be sure you find a qualified laser hair removal practitioner.
