There are numerous options for hair removal. You can swiftly shave away your hair, but it grows back just as quickly, causing itching and nasty ingrowths. Waxing removes not only your hair but also the protective lipid layer, resulting in discomfort and folliculitis. Dermatitis and pigmentation are common side effects of depilatory lotions. People frequently believe that Laser is an unpleasant operation that will burn a hole in their wallets. These and other myths motivated us to dispel Laser Hair Removal Myths and Facts and explain why it should be your go-to procedure for smooth, hairless skin.

Some Laser Hair Removal Myths and Facts:

Myth 1:

Laser Hair Removal causes hair to grow thicker and more frequently.

Fact 1:

Laser Hair Removal Myth, it does not cause hair to thicken. Each treatment should result in a reduction in hair growth of 10% to 25%. At each session, there is a visible decline in hair density, thickness, and growth rate. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, hair that does eventually grow back is much finer and lighter than before, so regions that were once problematic may be less uncomfortable even after the hair grows back.

Myth 2:

Laser Hair Removal is not a permanent solution.

Fact 2:

To inhibit hair growth, Laser targets and deactivates your hair follicles. In most circumstances, once a follicle is destroyed, there will be no more hair growth. The exception is when hormones induce women to develop facial hair. Based on your specific needs, we can help you assess whether laser hair removal can provide you with permanent results.

Myth 3:

Laser Hair Removal is risky.

Fact 3:

The safety of Hair Removal depends on the laser system chosen. Esteem Medical Clinic uses Fotona which is the latest, safest, and most advanced hair removal system that is safe to use and has been suggested and authorized. To avoid difficulties during and after the Laser hair removal process, it is always essential to visit professional Dermatologists who use a DHA-authorized system.

Myth 4:

Only women use Laser Hair Removal.

Fact 4:

Hair removal was once thought to be exclusively female. Not anymore. More and more men are turning to Laser to get finer, lighter hair and forms. Beard shaping, chest, neck, back, and arms are popular areas for Laser Hair Removal in males.

Myth 5:

Laser Hair Removal is painful.

Fact 5:

The treatment is performed using the latest & advanced technology. These machines feature built-in technologies that are meant for your comfort, so you only feel light sensations such as warm pinpricks. If you have sensitive skin, we can use a topical anesthetic before your procedure to alleviate any discomfort.

In comparison to the typical Laser Hair Removal treatment approach, which requires medium-to-long laser pulse durations (LP, 15-50 ms), Fotona’s short FRAC3® pulse, ideally 0.3-1.6 ms long, has the lowest hair damage thresholds, making this therapy more comfortable for the patient.

Laser Hair Removal Myths and Facts

Myth 6:

Laser Hair Removal is expensive

Fact 6:

Waxing is less expensive per session, but it costs more in the long run than Laser Hair Removal in Dubai. When compared to the cost of temporary procedures such as waxing, the overall investment with lasers is substantially lower with a permanent reduction. Women, for example, spend approximately 50,000 AED on underarm waxing over 20 years! Underarm Laser Hair Removal will not even cost 2500 AED. Not to mention the number of trips to the salon and the time spent on traditional treatments like waxing and threading. When compared to other hair removal treatments, Laser Treatment is far more cost-effective, safe, quick, and efficient.

Myth 7:

Laser Hair Removal causes cancer

Fact 7:

No, it does not cause cancer. The Skin Care Foundation reports that the technique is sometimes used to treat precancerous lesions.

Sun damage and wrinkles are treated with various lasers. Lasers used for hair removal and other skin procedures emit very little energy. Furthermore, the smallest amount is only extracted from the skin’s surface. As a result, they represent no cancer risk.

Myth 8:

Laser Hair Removal causes infertility.

Fact 8:

Another assumption is that Laser might lead to infertility. The lasers only impact the skin’s surface, thus the minimal radiation from the treatment cannot reach any of your organs.

If you’re currently attempting to conceive, talk to your doctor about the concerns.
