What is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is a medical treatment that removes unwanted hair with concentrated light. The pigment in the hair absorbs the light and the heat damages the hair follicle. It can treat the face, underarms, arms, legs, bikini area, back and full body.

Types of lasers

Types of lasers used in laser hair removal are as follows:

Diode laser

Widely used and works well on light to medium-brown skin with dark hair. It treats large areas fairly quickly.

Nd:YAG laser

Goes deeper into the skin and is a safer choice for darker brown skin. It works less well on fine or light hair.

Alexandrite laser

Fast and effective on light skin with dark hair, but used with care on brown skin.

IPL (intense pulsed light)

Not a true laser. It is often cheaper and works best on light skin with dark hair, but it is usually less effective than a laser.

Benefits of laser hair removal

Benefits of laser hair removal includes:

• Less hair grows back, and the hair that does grow is often finer and lighter.
• Less need for shaving, waxing or threading.
• Fewer ingrown hairs and less razor irritation.
• Small areas such as the upper lip take only a few minutes.
• There is usually no downtime, so you can return to normal activities the same day.

Who should consider this treatment?

Laser hair removal works best on dark hair. It works on brown skin too when an experienced dermatologist chooses the right laser. It is not suitable for:

• Blonde, grey, white or red hair
• Pregnant women, as most clinics postpone treatment
• Skin with a recent tan, sunburn or active infection
• The eyebrows, eyelids or tattooed skin

Common side effects are redness and mild swelling for a few hours to a few days. Protect the treated skin from the sun to lower the risk of dark patches.

Who should not consider laser hair removal?

People who should not consider laser hair removal are:

• People with blonde, grey, white or red hair, as the laser does not work well on light hair.
• Pregnant women, as most clinics postpone treatment until after pregnancy.
• People with a recent tan or sunburn in the area.
• People with an active skin infection, rash or open wound in the area.
• People who have recently taken isotretinoin (an acne medicine) or have a history of cold sores should tell their dermatologist first.
• Areas with tattoos, the eyebrows and the eyelids.

What happens in a laser hair removal session?

A session can take a few minutes for the upper lip and an hour or more for the back or full body.

1. Consultation: the dermatologist checks your skin type, hair colour and medical history, and chooses the laser and settings.
2. Preparation: stop waxing, plucking and threading for about 4 weeks before. Shave the area a day before.
3. Patch test: many clinics test a small area first to check how your skin reacts.
4. Treatment: you wear protective glasses. A numbing cream or cooling gel may be used. The laser feels like a quick snap of a rubber band on the skin.
5. After the session: the skin is cooled and you can go home the same day.

Aftercare and results

Redness and mild swelling are common for a few hours to a few days. A cool compress or ice pack helps.

• Protect the treated skin from the sun and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or more.
• Do not wax or pluck between sessions. Shaving is fine.
• Avoid hot baths, saunas and heavy exercise for a day or two if the skin feels irritated.

Hair does not fall out right away. It sheds over several days to weeks. After the first session, hair usually reduces by about 10% to 25%, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. Results build with each session and often last for months or years.

Side effects and risks

Common side effects are mild and short-lived: redness, swelling, discomfort and a raised rash for up to a day or so. Less common risks include blisters, crusting, burns, scarring and lighter or darker patches of skin. Colour changes are more likely in brown skin and in people who do not avoid the sun. Rarely, hair around the treated area grows thicker. The risk of side effects is lower when an experienced dermatologist chooses the right laser for your skin.
