Shaving or tweezing lasts only a few days, while waxing or threading offer only a slightly more long-term option – but even these procedures leave hair to grow back in a few months time. Laser hair removal, however, offers a long-term (if not permanent solution) to unwanted hair growth.

But how does it work? It can take multiple sessions, depending on individual hair regrowth patterns. The procedure is done by shining a high-intensity laser directly on hair follicles. The pigment in the root of the hair follicle absorb the beam of light, which damages the ability grow back. Most patients see results after their first appointment, and see regrowth shrink with each appointment.

Though some say it’s slightly painful, it’s also the best way to keep unwanted hair permanently at bay. Consider the treatment to get rid of your excess hair once and for all.
