Permanent Hair Removal for Men & Women
Laser treatment targets the dark color of the melanin pigment in the hair follicle. Thus, the root of the hair is compromised with little effect on the skin and surrounding tissue. Since melanin is only produced during the growth phase, the laser light must target the hair follicle during the appropriate portion of cycle.
Even in one given body part, not all follicles are in the growth phase of the cycle at the same time. Thus, these treatments need to be repeated at strategically spaced intervals over the course of the hair cycles. This assures us of subsequent hair growth prevention and that the hair follicles are disabled. The laser hair removal procedures at Ideal Image not only remove hair above the skin, but additionally makes sure you no longer see the dark hairs beneath the skin’s surface, sometimes known as the five o’ clock shadow.
Common Treated Areas
- Almost every region of the body can be treated except eyebrows and eyelashes as they are too close to the eye. In some cases a limited part of the brow may be done by the most experienced technician. You will be asked to wear special protection.
- The most requested areas are : underarms, regular bikini, Brazilian ( semi bikini) and lower leg.
- The more the hair is thin and blond the harder it is to treat because it does not contain enough pigment to attract the laser’s light. For example in some people the upper lip or upper thighs.
- People with dark hair and light skin represent the best candidates for laser hair removal with a diode laser.
- Dark skin acts as a filter of the laser’s light and does not allow enough energy to reach the hair follicle. People with very dark skin are not good candidates for diode laser hair removal and are best served by other laser types.
