 Did you ever wonder what it would be like without unwanted body/facial hair?
Unwanted hair is often considered to be either culturally unacceptable, or unattractive. Millions of men and women with unwanted body hair spend countless hours on temporary hair removal methods-including shaving, waxing, applying chemical depilatories, and tweezing. A traditional semi-permanent method, electrolysis, cauterizes and destroys each individual hair follicle, but this procedure is quite time-consuming. However, these methods are not completely satisfactory for many. Here at Skin Alive Clinic, we provide you with a fantastic option of hair reduction by laser, described as an extremely safe and satisfying experience. This treatment provides prolonged hair-free periods.
What is a Laser?
Laser by definition, is coherent rays of light of a single wavelength made into a beam. Hair reduction laser technology is based on the principle of selective photothermolysis. During this process, the laser light is absorbed by a chosen chromophore and converted into heat. Utilizing an exclusive Long Pulseo Ndyag laser system, the laser light is selectively absorbed by the melanin within the hair, producing thermal damage of the hair follicle, leaving the surrounding tissue untouched. Since thousands of hairs can be zapped in a single treatment session, large areas like the back, shoulders, arms and legs can be effectively and efficiently treated. Hair and skin type vary among individuals. To meet this requirement, we tailor a program specific to your needs, resulting in even a more effective outcome. This is a unique advantage that our clinic has, and is one of the reasons we have a long list of satisfied customers.
