Laser Hair Removal Richmond
Like with any other cosmetic procedure, in its early stages, Laser Hair Removal in Richmond Virginia was very limited. Only those Richmond residents with very light skin tones and very dark hair were able to undergo effective treatments. Over the years as laser technology has advanced, lasers have been developed that can treat patients with skin tones ranging from light to dark. This means that individuals with darker skin tones can no undergo safe, effective laser treatments that remove unwanted hair without damaging the treated skin. The versatility of Laser Hair Removal treatments has increased as newer lasers have been produced.
Because of continual advancements in laser technology, Richmond residents with all different skin tones can be treated safely and effectively; however, Laser Hair Removal in Richmond, VA is still limited in who it can effectively treat. The laser used during the procedure is attracted to the melanin or pigment found in each individuals hair follicles. Those men and women with brown or black hair will see excellent hair removal results. On the other hand, those individuals with gray, white, blonde or red hair will not see these same results. The fact of the matter is, lighter hair colors contain less (or no) visible pigment; therefore they are harder for the laser to 'see'. If the laser cannot see the hair, it won’t treat it so the hair follicles will not be effectively destroyed.
This revolutionary procedure is a great way to remove visible unwanted hair, but it doesn’t work for everyone. No matter what anyone tells you, if you have lighter hair colors, you will not see effective hair reduction results with the laser treatment.
