How Laser Hair Reduction Gives You Smooth, Festive-Ready Skin

The majority of people lead hectic lifestyles and don’t want to go through the hassle of shaving, waxing, threading, or depilating. There are situations when they cancel going to events because they don't have time to groom themselves and dress in the attire of their choice. To avoid this and maintain festive-ready, smooth, and hair-free skin at all times, dermatologists advise ditching traditional hair reduction methods and opting for laser hair reduction in Guragaon. Why laser hair reduction and no other alternative? Read on to know.

What is Laser Hair Reduction?

Laser hair reduction is a permanent approach for reducing unwanted hair growth and improving the skin texture and tone. It is an in-clinic cosmetic service, available only with a certified and trained aesthetician or a dermatologist.

How Laser Hair Reduction Can Prepare You for the Festive Season?

At Citrine Clinic, a medical-grade, FDA-cleared laser machine is used to deliver safe and effective results during laser hair reduction treatments. The machine emits light of a specific wavelength, which generates thermal energy. In a single laser pulse, multiple unwanted hair follicles are targeted at a time. When this energy is focused on the targeted area, it gets absorbed by the melanin pigment, present in the targeted hair follicles. The absorbed energy travels down the hair shaft to the hair roots and causes thermal destruction of the hair follicles. The damaged hair follicles lose their ability to produce healthy hair. Even if hair grows, it's lighter and finer.

Laser hair reduction is successful only when the targeted hair follicle is actively growing hair. As hair grows in cycles, at any given time, not every targeted hair is in the anagen phase of the hair growth cycle. To ensure a maximal and long-lasting reduction in unwanted hair growth, multiple laser hair reduction sessions are necessary. This way, the majority of the unwanted hair roots get damaged.

Laser Hair Reduction Process- What to Expect?

• Consultation - The professional at Citrine Clinic will thoroughly assess the client’s skin tone and hair color, review medical records, determine candidacy, provide procedure details, discuss expectations and potential results, take photos of the targeted area, and recommend a tailored treatment plan, along with its cost breakdown.
• Preparation for the Session - At the end of the consultation, the professional will provide a list of pre-treatment instructions to prepare for the session. This includes avoiding sun tanning and damage, as well as other hair removal methods or irritants.
• During the session- A handheld laser machine is hovered over the targeted area. As the laser pulses reach the targeted area of the skin, they cause slight discomfort, which is mitigated by the machine's cooling mechanism.
• After the session- The treated area looks like a mild sunburn. For smooth and quick healing, the client is recommended to care for the targeted area gently, keep it sun-protected and free from irritants- the harsh chemical products, the traditional hair removal methods, the aggressive skin treatments, the strenuous activities, swimming, and even hot baths/showers, saunas, and steam rooms.
