Lasers For Hair Removal
- Long pulsed lasers - Diode lasers |
|
The use of lasers in removing excess or unwanted body hair is gaining momentum in clinical use. Several laser systems are available and they selectively target and destroy hair follicles with minimal surrounding tissue damage. Examples of long pulsed lasers used are the long pulsed ruby lasers and the long pulsed alexandrite lasers. |

The lasers mentioned above are used in the facial region to remove hair in unwanted areas and also to remove excess hair. The effects can be permanent though there are reported cases where the hair can regrow in which case retreatment may be required. |
