Advantages and disadvantages laser hair removal


Advantages of laser hair removal


Some consumers have experienced long-lasting hair removal or permanent hair reduction. Considered safe if performed properly. Laser hair removal can be great for large areas like the back, arms and legs. Re growth can come back lighter in color or finer in texture. Great if you are light skinned, and have dark body hair. Some clinics offer written warranties. If you experience any re-growth of hair in the treated area within the specified guarantee period, you can make an appointment with the clinic issuing the guarantee to receive additional laser treatments to the treated area, free of charge.

Disadvantages of cheap laser hair removal

Light-skinned consumers with dark hair have the best results. Response rates have not been established. Re growth rates have not been accurately established and cannot be predicted due to numerous variables. Generally not as effective on unpigmented (gray) hairs and red or blonde hair. If you have a darker skin tone, or you tan, cheap lasers must be used very cautiously. Improper treatment can cause burns, lesions, skin discoloration lasting several months, or patchy/patterned re growth. Can be expensive. Some find treatment painful.
