You may not have known but there are four different types of lasers used for hair removal. Some clinics offer non laser hair removal. Remember to check out your options before making a decision.
Ruby Laser: This laser used for hair removal has a very powerful pulse. It is also known as being the recommended laser for people with lighter skin. If set on a lower setting it can be used on darker skin. This is one of the oldest lasers used for hair removal. The fact that this laser can only treat smaller areas has made it less requested.
Alexandrite Laser: This laser used for hair removal is versatile. The range can be customized as well as the size of the area. It will depend on the coarseness of the hair being removed. This hair removal laser is very effective and fast. Even more so with larger areas of hair on the body. This laser is the fastest one used for hair removal. You can request this laser or use it with confidence that it will give you great results.
The ND Yag Laser: This laser used to remove hair is known to be one of the greatest lasers. It treats darker or tanned skin and coarser hair the best. This laser has a long pulse unlike the ruby laser that has a very fast pulse. The downside to the long pulse is you might feel more discomfort during your session.
The Diode Laser: This laser used for hair removal is versatile also. It has a design that is wavelike and treats a range of different skin types. This laser is used more for people with darker skin. It gives better results on darker skin rather than lighter skin. This laser will cover the larger areas of the body and has a faster treatment time.
These hair removal lasers have their own certain areas they treat best. This should be of less concern to you and more to your practitioner. Find a practitioner you can trust to choose the best option for your specific need.
Some clinics will offer a non-laser hair removal procedure. If this interests you as well, discuss this with your practitioner. You want to be sure you know your options before having a laser hair removal procedure. What if it really isn't for you and you do not take the time to realize that?
How many people have a procedure done only to later turn around and say they wish they wouldn't have? Not very many, but you do not want to be one of the few. Everyone should get all the information that they can on a procedure such as laser hair removal.
Knowing what kind of lasers they use and their benefits will help make you at ease during your treatment. Knowing about the equipment and process of a procedure can be very calming to some patients.
You will have a better idea of what to expect during your laser hair removal process as well. Is it going to hurt? It might actually depend on the laser used. You will not know until you talk with your practitioner. Make sure they are highly qualified as well. This will also help with achieving the best laser hair removal results.
