People have been removing body hair for thousands of years. Unfortunately, many of the techniques we use today are downright medieval – ripping hair out by the roots with waxing, tearing it out with plucking and threading, shaving it off to end up with razor burns or cuts.
Why torture yourself with such barbaric techniques when modern laser technology has given us a permanent, safe, and relatively pain-free option?
Laser hair removal is the 21st-century answer to the age-old hair removal quest. You can finally throw out your razor and say goodbye to waxing. Forget ingrown hairs, cuts, razor burn, and the acne-like scars from bad hair removal.
If you have embarrassing facial hair or annoying body hair, Beauty Obsession Spa’s laser hair removal in Brooklyn could be the answer.
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Before jumping in and booking an appointment, you might be wondering how exactly laser hair removal works.
The technique uses advanced lasers to permanently damage the hair follicles so they don’t grow back.
More specifically, our certified laser technicians use a laser set to a specific wavelength designed to target melanin. Melanin is the part of the hair follicle that gives the hair color. By targeting this element, the laser can penetrate the hair follicle down to the root. The laser’s heat is then absorbed by the hair, causing damage to the hair follicle root. The hair falls out and doesn’t regrow.
Laser hair removal can be used to remove hair from all over the body. Dark, coarse hair is more comfortable to target – due to high melanin levels – while fine, light hairs usually require more sessions. In all cases, laser hair removal will require multiple sessions as new hair follicles grow out and are targeted. Depending on the hair and skin type, area of the body, and other factors, clients can expect laser hair removal to take six or more sessions on average.
The technique is permanent to semipermanent as the hair follicles can sometimes repair themselves over many years. A quick touchup appointment every few years can keep the results long-lasting.
