LASER HAIR REDUCTION TREATMENT IN PUNE
What is laser hair reduction?
Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses a concentrated beam of light (laser)
to remove unwanted hair.
During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin)
in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the hair follicles that
produce hairs. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth.
Although laser hair removal effectively delays hair growth for long periods, it usually
doesn't result in permanent hair removal. Multiple laser hair removal treatments are needed for
initial hair removal, and maintenance treatments might be needed as well. Laser hair removal is
most effective for people who have light skin and dark hair, but it can be successfully used on
all skin types.
