Is Laser Hair Removal Permanent?

Friday, March 13th, 2009

Permanent Hair Removal Treatments

The answer to the question of permanence with regard to hair removal by laser is “Yes”. And “No”! Why the double answer? Well to put it simply, laser treatment can disable the follicles of individual hairs under your skin on a permanent basis so Yes, the treatment is permanent. However, with the current state of laser technology, no treatment will completely rid an entire part of your body of hairs. Some hairs will always grow back. On the plus side, successful treatment could potentially remove up to 80% of the hairs from the treated area. And some of the hairs that do grow back may well be much thinner, paler and less visible than they were previously.

The other permanent method you might wish to consider is electrolysis. This tends to be used on small parts of the body, perhaps the chin or brow, while lasers can be used to treat whole body section, for example your legs or back, rapidly and effectively.

The Importance of Your Skin Type

The permanent nature of laser hair removal treatment, as well as its overall efficacy, varies a great deal depending on what your skin type is and what the color is of the hairs you wish to have removed. Laser hair removal works best when there is a strong contrast between the color of your hairs and your skin; so it is most effective on black or very dark hairs on very pale skin. If you have this combination, then you are likely to find a large number of clinics that can treat you. If you need more specialist treatment, such as for paler hairs, or for brown hairs on brown skin, the good news is that this still may be possible with modern equipment, but on the other hand you may be more limited in the choice of clinics that can offer this more specialized treatment.

Conclusion

Both laser hair removal and electrolysis are effective, permanent treatments that can be used successfully to deal with unwanted hair problems. Which of these treatments is best for you is something that depends on your exact requirements and goals for permanent hair removal treatment by laser or electrolysis.
