Want to get laser hair treatments to get rid of unwanted hair? you can either visit a salon or spa with experienced professionals or use an at home laser kit. While laser treatment from a salon or spa gets rid of hair more effectively than home laser kits, it is useful to know what type of machine will be zapping your skin.

Light skinned and looking for a safe and effective laser treatment?

Ruby laser treatment may be for you!. This method has been most widely used in many salons, although they are being replaced by other types of lasers. Mostly this is because ruby lasers are the worst for darker skin tones. Only the E2000 type of Ruby laser has been approved for permanent hair removal. Other ruby lasers will delay hair growth and leave you fuzz-free for a long time, but they will not permanently get rid of hair for most people. Many experts continue to favor ruby lasers because so many clinical trials have been done on this type of laser, showing that it is safe and effective.

Conscious about caring for your skin?

Alexandrite lasers are becoming far more widely used because some professionals find that less skin damage occurs with these lasers and hair removal is greater.

Dark skinned or needing to remove stubborn dark hair?

Diode lasers have longer wavelength. In practical terms, what this means for you is that these lasers can remove dark hair that proves stubborn to other types of lasers. Some women report they need fewer sessions with this type of laser. Experts suggest that this type of laser may be safer than others for darker skins. The FDA in the United States has approved this powerful laser as effective and safe for permanent hair removal.

Needing something fast or covering a large area?

Nd:YAG is a faster type of laser. If you need to get rid of hair over larger areas, a Q_switched Nd:YAG might be well worth investigating. This laser offers hair removal that lasts for a long time, but it does not permanently remove hair as effectively as the diode laser. It is very good and safe for darker skin tones, however.

How do lasers destroy hair?

  • By heating and burning hair. All types of hair removal lasers typically work by doing this on at least one level. This mechanism is what causes the skin to hurt after a laser session - the skin is heated up as well as the hair.
  • By mechanically producing shock waves. Some Nd:YAG lasers use this method to eliminate hair, although experts claim that in many cases, this mechanical function is less likely to result in permanent hair removal. The hair still needs to be heated and burned in order to be destroyed.
  • By reacting with the body in such a way that toxic substances (at least toxic to the hair follicle) are produced.

Still need more info?!

No matter what type of laser you would like to try, you could always talk to your aesthetician about the laser options available to you. This is a great sneaky way to see how much your aesthetician knows about lasers - if he or she seems confused or gives vague answers, you should take your money to someone who is knowledgeable about the service they offer.
