Soprano XL vs LightSheer

Laser Hair Removal is the use of laser energy to produce long-term hair reduction. This is accomplished by producing heat in the hair, which is transferred to the hair follicle, which in-turn produces inflammation. The hairs go through three different stages during their life cycle at different periods of time and are most vulnerable to laser at their active stage of life. This is one of the reasons why several treatments are required to assure the destruction of hair follicles. The laser is locked on the target which is the melanin pigment contained within the hair shaft. The tricky part of Laser Hair Removal is targeting it without damaging the melanin pigment in the surface of the skin.

Thus the laser light has to be long enough to heat the hair, but not too long to allow that heat to spread to the surrounding skin causing damage. Light skin makes Laser Hair Removal easier to perform. Fewer treatments are required, and better, faster results are obtained. People with darker skin can be treated, but results are slower, more sessions are required, and greater expertise is required on the part of the laser technician. Therefore, the darker a patient's skin, the more difficult it is to avoid injuring the surface of the skin while treating the hair. Laser Hair Removal must be individualized for each patient. The darker a patient's skin, the more difficult to avoid injuring the surface of the skin while treating the hair. Laser Hair Removal must be individualized for each patient.

Dark hair absorbs more laser energy and is, therefore, much easier to treat. Coarse dark hair responds the best to laser treatment. Light hair is more difficult to treat, while blonde or red hair being extremely difficult to treat. Multiple treatment sessions are required, and results are variable. Blonde or red hair usually contains pheomelanin, which absorbs laser energy less avidly than the eumelanin pigment which is present in black or brown hair.

How many Laser Hair Removal treatments are needed?

The number of Laser Hair Removal treatments required depends upon your skin type, hair coloring, and coarseness of the hair, depth of the hair follicle and the size of the area that need be treated. Generally, 80% - 90% of good candidates will need minimum 6 to 8 Laser Hair Removal treatments spaced 6 - 10 weeks apart to experience 70% to 90% hair reduction. The cycle of hair growth has three phases and laser is killed in the active growing phase. A minimum of 6 to 8 treatments are needed to target ALL hair in the active growth phase. Hormonal issues can also cause to a longer process of Laser Hair Removal by creating new hair follicles in addition to those which were destroyed before. Usually, men will need more treatments than women because of their skin structure and the male hormones. The treated area can also influence of the number of treatments needed; face will usually summed in more treatments than other body areas like bikini, legs or underarms.

Permanent Hair Removal

Is the Laser Hair Removal permanent? Yes, Laser Hair Removal is permanent as long as we destroy the follicle (root) of the hair. This should be done at the Active phase of the hair cycle; otherwise we will experience a new re growth of hair on the treated area.

Laser Hair Removal and Pain

If you ever been through Laser Hair Removal procedure you might have bad memories from the incidence. Weather you experienced it or may be a friend or a relative told you about her/his "adventure" you might be scared a bit. It is just natural that some experience of you or other resulted in strong pains and even more. Previous Laser Hair Removal machines were quite painful, to tell the truth, so the use of anesthesia cream (such as "Emla") was widely spread. The cost of Laser Hair Removal machines is extremely high. Therefore many clinics are still keeping their old models which were purchased just few years ago with huge investment.

Are there any side effects on Laser Hair Removal treatment?

In most cases there are no side effects associated with the procedure. However, pigmentary change of the skin treated can occur, including either dark or light areas. Pigmentary changes may persist for months, but are almost always temporary. They are very rare in patients with fair skin, who are untanned. Blisters and burns are rare, but occasionally occur, particularly in patients with dark skin.

Tanning and Laser Hair Removal

Having a tan increases the risk of side effects such as blistering and discoloration. Due to the fact that on a tanned skin, the laser tends to aim at the surrounding skin rather than the hair, scarring of the skin may also occur. It is highly recommended to avoid tanning while having Laser Hair Removal procedure. Even you have stayed only in Toronto you still might hit by strong sun exposure. Be aware of it.
