Arms and Legs
Laser hair removal is a cutting-edge cosmetic procedure that offers a long-term solution to unwanted hair. It involves the use of concentrated laser beams to target hair follicles, damaging them to inhibit future hair growth. This process is safe, effective, and provides lasting results.
The laser emits a concentrated beam of light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicles. This energy is then converted into heat, which damages the follicle’s ability to grow hair. Over time, with repeated sessions, the hair becomes finer and less noticeable until it’s virtually gone.
