The Cost of Laser Hair Removal
by Carmen HyltonDo you have unwanted hair? Laser hair removal is a great way to remove unwanted hair. The hair is removed by laser. A light beam, with a specific wavelength, is directed onto the skin. The light beam is sent through a hand piece, into the skin, where the laser attacks the darker pigmentation of the hair follicle. The hair follicle is damaged and destroyed, however the surrounding skin tissue is not damaged. Some folks do experience permanent hair loss, others may need to repeat the procedure. If the hair does grow back, it is lighter in color and texture, and is finer.
Four types of lasers are used for hair removal. They are Ruby, Alexandrite, Diode, and NdYAG. These four types of lasers differ in many ways are used for different skin types. The ruby laser is suited to focus on small areas and can be used on both dark and light skin. However, it does work best on light skin. For use on many different types of hair, the alexandrite laser is very versatile. It can focus on large areas and is easily customized. The diode laser is very effective on most types of skin. It uses a much longer wavelength than the other lasers. For people with dark hair and skin, the NdYag laser works well.
Not everyone is suited for laser hair removal treatment. For people with certain medical conditions or disorders, it is not recommended. If you have white, gray or very light colored hair, it is not a very effective treatment. People that have hair of these colors do not have pigments in their hair to absorb the energy from the laser. Laser hair removal works best on people with light skin and dark hair.
How many treatments will you need? If you are removing facial hair, one treatment may be enough. Other areas of the body often require a series of treatments to remove the unwanted hair. For many, laser hair removal is the last resort, after using other methods to rid themselves of unwanted hair.
Laser hair removal is considered quite safe. However, it is important to have a experienced, licensed professional apply your treatments. Burns, blistering, skin discoloration, or a patchy uneven hair regrowth are the risks of not having the treatments done correctly. Taking the time to meet with several professionals in your area, and then deciding which one is right for you, will pay off in the long run. Make sure to follow all the guidelines that your doctor gives you both before and after your laser hair removal treatments.
How much will it cost? Laser hair removal can be expensive. Most insurance companies consider it to be a cosmetic procedure and will not cover the cost. Payment plans may be available. Be sure to ask. The average cost per treatment for laser hair removal in the United States is between $425 and $500 and many people need three to four sessions.
