Laser hair removal to cure hirsutism
October 6, 2009
Many women on this planet are suffering from an unwanted growth of hair, which is commonly known as hirsutism. This is the condition when women have abnormal hair growth on the parts of the body, such as the neck, face and back. This condition could be disturbing and may cause several levels of discomfort in the individual, depending on her emotional background.
For a long time, this abnormal growth of hair on a woman’s face has been a major concern. One of the most thriving businesses in today’s market involve laser hair removal.
This is one of the methods that helps in semi-permanent to permanent hair removal form the various body parts, rather than using the traditional methods, such as razors,creams or waxes.
Laser hair removal therapy works on the principle of using the beam of a laser to penetrate the skin and, hence, targeting the pigment in the hair. This process helps destroy the hair follicle. This therapy may take several sittings in order for the permanent removal of hair from the particular part of the body.
This process could be one of the more attractive methods to help women suffering form hirsutism. Several different methods are used by women to remove hair from their face, such as shaving, but shaving results in quick re-growth of the hair and dealing with stubble on uncomfortable areas.
Another hair removal method is waxing, which requires frequent visits to a salon, as it only works for one to two weeks, depending on the growth pattern. However, women who have excessive growth may have to wax once or twice in week in order to see the best results, which still last only for one to two weeks.
A third option involves hormone treatments; however, most women do not favor this treatment for their unwanted hair, because they know about its severe side effects.
Therefore, the laser could be one of the best methods for hair removal, but it still has its side effects. Once you start the treatment, you cannot go for tanning as the laser makes the skin more likely to blister and may cause deeper damage.
Women who are planning to go for the laser hair removal technique must plan for a few weeks before starting the treatment. They have to minimize their sun exposure for 2 to 3 weeks before the treatment; therefore, this treatment is not recommended for people living in sunny places, as this treatment requires minimum sun exposure before, and after, the treatment.
In addition, these treatments work best with women who have shorter hair, so it is recommended that women shave before a treatment in order to have shorter hairs.
As the laser beam is very intense, a numbing agent is first applied on the skin to relieve the beam’s effect. Different people will have different experiences, depending on their skin and severity of hair growth. You may also encounter a strong odor as the hair on the surface of the skin is burnt.
In short, laser hair removal treatment has given women who undergo the treatment a new life, allowing them to live more normally. The pain and the inconvenience associated with the treatment are nothing compared to the joy and happiness in their lives afterwards.
