Typical Hair Removal Treatments

Hair Removal

Hair removal overcomes the problem of unwanted hair that is common amongst both men and women. In many cases, excess body or facial hair can be the result of hereditary factors, running through generations. Hair removal treatments also combat the experience of unwanted or excess hair, a condition that worsens with age, pregnancy or menopause.

Hair does not come in any one size or type as follicles in different parts of the body produce differing types of hair. As a result, hair may grow in thick, bushy patches in some parts of the body or long thin strands. Furthermore, hair is produced in follicles that can be found at different depths and densities, each of which may be growing in one of three stages of growth at any given time. Until recently, this great variety in hair types and body locations made long-lasting hair removal a significant challenge.

Typical Hair Removal Treatments

Hair removal by tweezing and shaving

The drawbacks of this Typical Hair removal treatments approach include both being painful and time-consuming. Plucking is only a short-term hair removal solution as the hair invariably grows back and shaving is an ultimately ineffective way to permanently rid oneself of excess hair.

Hair removal creams

Messy chemical depilatory creams can cause redness and irritation, the Hair removal having no permanent effect on unwanted hair. Prescription creams often provide good results, but they must be used at least twice per day, and never provide a permanent hair removal solution.

Waxing is quite popular, especially among women for Hair removal . This painful method only provides hair-free results for two to four weeks and can cause skin irritation and ingrown hairs.

Candela’s ND:YAG 1064nm Laser

At Results Laser Clinic, we believe that Candelas’ GentleYAG laser provides the safest and most effective treatment for laser hair removal, particularly for darker skin types.It is among the world’s top two medical-grade technologies, with specifications and further reading on the GentleYAG below.

The Alexandrite GentleYAG system is one of Candela’s premier lasers for removing hair. GentleYAG is a revolutionary long-pulse high energy laser which emits a gentle beam of light that passes through the skin to the hair follicle where it is absorbed. The laser energy is transformed into heat, which destroys the hair follicle leaving the surrounding skin unaffected.

The GentleYAG treats all skin types quickly, comfortably and effectively. The Candela family of lasers are fast, versatile and easy to use. The skin is further protected during treatment by a Dynamic Cooling Device™ (DCD) where cryogen is sprayed onto the skin cooling the upper layers and providing patients with increased comfort. The GentleYAG selectivity helps to protect the skin, while effectively treating the unwanted hair.
