How does laser treatment works at Epiderma

Laser hair removal treatment is a non-intrusive, pain-free treatment which is effective and long-lasting result driven procedure. The low energy laser light is targeted on the individual hair follicle (hair root). The melanin pigment present in the hair follicle absorbs the heat energy and damages the hair follicle. The damaged hair follicle cannot regrow the new hair. 

Normally, the hair has a growth cycle which can be divided into 4 stages – growing stage, transition stage, resting stage and shedding stage. The hairs in resting and shedding stage have more melanin compared to other stages and gets more affected with laser compared to hairs in other stages. So, during laser treatment, the hair follicles in resting or shedding stage gets damaged and falls off whereas the hair follicle in growing stage or transition stage may continue to grow the hair. On repetitive exposure to laser treatment, these hair follicles too get affected and cease hair re-growth. Hence, Multiple sessions of laser treatment is recommended for hair removal treatment.

Multiple laser sessions (5-8 no.s) with a gap of 3-4 weeks provides optimal results of smooth and hairless skin.
