The most effective method for removing hair is laser epilation. Advancing technology has brought many laser devices with it. ALEXANDRITE, DIOD vs. Diode laser is applied by using gel and touching the skin. It is more effective on light colored hairs. The Alexandrite laser device is more hygienic, more comfortable and effective than other devices. The device does not touch the skin. The shots are made remotely. Its cooler prevents pain. The laser light, which goes 4-5 mm deep into the hair root, destroys the hair root and returns within milliseconds without damaging the skin. Since the wavelength of the beam is specific to the hair root, it is not retained by the surrounding tissues, so it does not harm the surrounding tissues.
Since the growth rates of the hair follicles are not the same, the session intervals vary between 45 days and 60 days on average. The aim of the laser is to catch the hairs during the growth period. If there is no hormonal disorder, the total number of sessions is 6-8. The number of sessions may increase in the face area.
LASER’S EFFECT MECHANISM
The purpose of laser epilation is to protect the surrounding tissue while causing damage to the hair follicle. The laser energy reaching the hair root is absorbed by the color cells in the root. Thus, the surrounding tissue is not damaged. When the energy is adjusted according to the skin color, hair color and thickness of the person, burn etc. no side effects such as While some of the hairs fall out immediately, the rest fall out within 2-3 weeks. Many hair follicles are destroyed in each shot.
