Laser Hair Removal offers long lasting solutions for unwanted hair.

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that is safe and effective for the removal of unwanted hair. Until recently, shaving, tweezing, waxing, and electrolysis were the only methods of removing unwanted hair. In the early 1990s, the first reports of using laser energy to selectively damage and disable actively growing hair follicles were published. As this procedure has been refined, laser hair removal has become the preferred method for hair removal. The FDA approved this technology for permanent hair reduction.

Causes of Excessive Hair Growth

Excessive hair growth is classified as either hypertrichosis or hirsuitism. Hypertrichosis is the presence of excess hair in a normal or abnormal pattern. This may be inherited, or result from medications, hormones, malnutrition, tumors, or metabolic problems. Hirsuitism is the presence of excess hair in women in a male pattern such as the beard, mustache, or lower abdomen, and may be due to hormonal problems, medications, tumors, or heredity.

Hair Removal Methods

There are many ways to remove unwanted hair including shaving, plucking, electronic tweezers, radio frequency tweezers, waxing, depilatories (creams), and electrolysis. Although all these methods result in the removal of unwanted hair, laser hair removal treatments offer the only method for permanent hair reduction.
