Laser Hair Removal can be described as selective photothermolysis and PNTL. This technique was developed in the mid-1970 using intense pulsed light or IPL hair removal emit full spectrum light. IPL is not technically a laser, but the treatment is more commonly known as Laser Hair Removal.
Science behind this technology is called selective photothermolysis. The laser beam can selectively heating melanin in the hair follicle without heating the remainder of the skin. Because the laser can focus on the area you want to heat the follicle is directly targeted, leaving the skin unharmed. Melanin is what gives skin and hair. There are two types of melanin in the hair. Eumelanin gives hair brown or black hair and pheomelanin gives a blonde or red color. Treatment of laser hair removal works better with black hair and pale the skin with black hair is the perfect combination.
Electrolysis:
Electrolysis is another method that is similar to laser hair removal, but is effective on all different hair types and is the only method, due to the name wax Final FDA. With laser hair removal is faster, more reliable and less painful than electrolysis. Some may think that these two technology is the same one, but two techniques are completely different technologies. The electrolysis process is much more painful and requires more time for processing, which is less reliable.
Different types of lasers:
Pulse width determines the type of laser is suitable for your skin type. The laser pulse width is more safer for darker skin types and short pulsewidth are more efficient in targeting and disabling the hair follicles. The ideal width of the laser beam should be four times larger than the target is deep. Moreover, over the fluence or energy treatment is effective. It is important that treatment at the right level to heat the hair follicles weaken and grow. Using cryogenic spray also allows higher flows, so that more effective treatment. There are three types of epidermal cooling. The first one is cooled by contact with water or other cooling fluid for cooling the interior treatment. cryogen spray is a spray that is provided directly to the skin immediately before or after the laser pulse. The last air cooling using forced air at -34 degrees which is applied to the region.
