Anatomy of a Hair Follicle

Methods of hair reduction and their efficacy

The laser emits light that is absorbed by the root of the hair follicles and targets melanin (the substance that gives hair its colour). The laser emits the exact wavelength for the correct duration to specifically target the root of the hair without damaging surrounding skin cells. This process is called selective photothermolysis. The light pulse compromises the hair follicle to prevent future growth without damaging surrounding skin.

BEFORE

AFTER

After the session, your skin will be completely smooth and free of hair. However, only hair that has been in its active growth phase at the time of the laser session, is removed permanently. Since not all hair is actively growing at the same time, you will need to return for several sessions at specific intervals mirroring this rhythm of growth to permanently destroy all the follicles so that the hair never grows again in the targeted area.

WEA has a range of laser hair removal systems that are among the highest performing on the market today.

It is a popular option for people who want to permanently reduce or eliminate unwanted hair from areas such as the face, underarms, legs, and bikini line. Some of the benefits of laser hair removal include:

 

  • Precision: Laser hair removal targets individual hairs and destroys the hair follicle, so it is more precise than other hair removal methods such as shaving or waxing.
  • Speed: Laser hair removal can treat large areas quickly, making it a convenient option for people with busy schedules.
  • Long-lasting results: While laser hair removal does not guarantee permanent hair removal, it can significantly reduce hair growth and provide long-lasting results.
  • Reduced ingrown hairs: Laser hair removal can reduce the risk of ingrown hairs, which are hairs that grow back into the skin after they have been shaved or waxed.
  • Smooth skin: Laser hair removal can leave skin feeling smooth and soft, as it removes the entire hair shaft from the follicle.
  • Suitable for a variety of skin and hair types: Laser hair removal can be used on a wide range of skin and hair types, although it may be more effective on certain skin and hair combinations.
  • Fewer cuts and nicks: Laser hair removal does not involve the use of sharp instruments, so there is a reduced risk of cuts and nicks compared to methods such as shaving.
A note of caution however is that the process is actually hair reduction and not permanent hair removal. Seldom hair gets removed permanently. Treatment can last for about 2 years or more, depending upon the skin.
