Going for laser treatment for Hairless Skin? How Safe is Laser Treatment?
Are you considering laser treatment for Hairless Skin? How Safe is Laser Treatment?
Dear Ladies, we know that you have been tired and done with the every month waxing session. Those sticky wax strips, the painful process, and after wax irritation is after all, quite irritating for anyone to take. Well, there is definitely no guilt that you should be keeping for wanting hairless skin, and not like the process of using a razor after every now and then. And while laser treatment is an option, why would you even not choose it, right? So, if you are considering laser treatment for hairless skin, have you considered how safe is laser treatment?
Laser Treatment for Hair removal
Laser hair removal is a surgical technique that removes excess hair by using a directed beam of light (laser). A laser releases light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair during laser hair removal. Laser hair removal involves heating the hair follicles, preventing new hair growth. While laser hair removal is often marketed as a means of “permanent” hair removal, it only reduces the number of unwanted hairs in a given area. It does not totally exclude excess hairs.
So, how safe is laser treatment?
Like any other treatment, laser treatment can’t be called a hundred per cent safe method but it has its own pros and cons.
The Pros
It can reduce hair growth by many folds – Although you will not have completely smooth and silky hair for the rest of your life, it’ll be less visible and need less shaving or waxing. According to The Mayo Clinic, lasers will minimize hair counts by 40% to 80%.
It is not a time-consuming and recurring process – Laser hair removal procedures should not take a long time. In contrast to electrolysis, which involves treating each follicle separately, large areas may be treated all at once. It takes about an hour to do a laser treatment on the back. And it would need a few sessions, but is not a recurring process for every month like waxing.

The Cons
Skin issues – Blisters, Scarring, and burns are possible side effects. Although not normal, these are potential side effects, particularly for sensitive skin types or someone who has not experienced it before.
Not suited for all skin types and tones – Following laser hair reduction, it can become slightly darker or lighter. People with lighter skin may be more prone to dark pigmentation changes. People with darker skin tones may be more resistant to variations in lighter pigmentation. These modifications usually go away over time, and the skin returns to its original state.
