The treatment, as says our expert, works on the basis of selective photothermolysis. He explains “the procedure involves a particular wavelength of laser light being absorbed in the melanin pigment of hair which destroys the hair follicle.” The treatment demands time and patience for the best results. Dr. Dhawan says “8-10 sessions may be required for the best results and post treatment maintenance sessions required at regular intervals.”

2. Types

“There are four types of lasers used in the treatment namely Diode 810 nm, Alexandrine 750 nm, NdYAG 1064 nm and Intense Pulsed Light. Most effective are Alexandrine and Diode, especially the In Motion lasers where skin burn and pigmentation almost never happen” describes our expert.

3. Pre- Treatment Concerns

Getting a patch test done before your treatment is a good idea since it helps you become sure about the safety of the treatment. Although our expert assures that “the in motion lasers are safe and can be done without patch test.” Although practices like, limitation of plucking, waxing and electrolysis is much advisable at least six weeks before getting the treatment (since it temporarily removes the hair root which otherwise should be targeted by the laser during treatment, hence decreasing its efficiency).
