Why Switch From Waxing to Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that uses a highly concentrated beam of light to remove unwanted hair. This beam of light damages the hair follicle which inhibits future hair growth. For permanent hair removal, laser hair removal is very effective. They can be used to remove hair from your upper lip, chin, arms, legs, abdomen, and bikini area.

Here’s why you should choose laser hair removal:

More Comfortable

Waxing is an uncomfortable process. It pulls on the hair, which can leave the skin red and irritated. Laser hair removal is a much more comfortable process. It only targets the hair follicles, leaving a more comfortable experience for the patient.

Quicker Treatment Times

Well, waxing can be painful and messy, and you have to do it on a regular basis, whereas laser hair removal requires fewer treatments and is much less painful. Waxing also takes much longer to perform, and you may need to visit your dermatologist several times for multiple treatments. Laser hair removal treatments, on the other hand, only take a few minutes.

Less Expensive

Since laser hair removal treatments involve fewer treatments than waxing does, the overall cost is much lower. Waxing can also be painful, while laser hair removal is, for the most part, pain-free. Laser hair removal is generally quicker than waxing as well, which reduces costs even further.

Risk of Complications Reduced

Laser hair removal is safer and absorbs into your skin more gradually, so you don’t have to worry about redness or burning as you do with waxing.

Waxing may also cause unsightly ingrown hairs. These ingrown hairs cause redness and irritation. Laser hair removal works to permanently remove hair without causing ingrown hairs.

No Re-Growth

Laser hair removal is a permanent solution for unwanted hair. You don’t have to worry about re-growth with this method. Waxing only removes the hair at skin level. Hair growth is stimulated with this process. Laser hair removal targets the melanin in the hair follicle. The pigment absorbs the light. Heat is then created, which causes damage to the follicle.

Permanent Results

Laser hair removal offers permanent results. This prevents you from wasting time on hair removal methods that end up breaking you out or leaving you with annoying ingrown hairs. It is the best option for getting rid of unwanted hair.

Fewer Side Effects

Waxing comes with many side effects, including rashes, redness, and irritation. Laser hair removal is a procedure that’s as pain-free as getting a vaccine. The laser energy administers a cooling sensation as it treats the targeted area.
