Invest in Laser Hair Reduction Before Summer
Summer is just around the corner and chances are that you’re gearing up to say goodbye to cozy sweaters and looking forward to spending time on the beach, lounging by the pool, and sharing laughter with friends and family in the sun.
However, enjoying summer also comes with the labor of sitting through countless hours of shaving and waxing sessions to ensure you’re ready to flaunt your beautiful, hair-free skin. An average woman spends up to 1,728 hours shaving or waxing in her lifetime. Not to mention the billions of cuts, scratches, and ingrown hair one has to endure after these hair-removal treatments.
What if we told you that you can enjoy your summer escapades without all that hair-removing effort? Well, you can do that now with laser hair reduction that can permanently remove up to 90% of your unwanted hair and give you smooth, silky skin that you can bare without worries.
If you want to be prepared for summer, it’s important to start your laser hair reduction journey at the earliest as laser treatments can take several months to complete.
What is Laser Hair Reduction?
Laser hair reduction is an aesthetic treatment that uses a concentrated beam of light to get rid of hair in different areas of the body. Laser hair reduction works through the process of photothermal reaction where the hair follicle is damaged while leaving the skin unaffected. Energy enters the skin from a laser in pulses and is delivered to the desired area through a mechanism known as photothermolysis. Through this process, laser hair reduction damages your hair follicles and stops hair growth from the root itself.
Prep for the summer with Laser Hair Reduction
Laser hair reduction doesn’t remove all your unwanted hair with just one session. Instead, it requires you to follow a course of 4-8 sessions spaced a few weeks apart to eliminate unwanted hair. Therefore, if you want to be free from the hassle of shaving and waxing by the time summer is here, you need to start early!
The process of laser hair reduction works when the laser is absorbed by the pigment (color) in your hair, allowing the procedure to target hair without harming the skin. Though the process is pretty straightforward, there’s a catch – hair growth goes through cycles. Every hair on your body follows its own cycle, and then the follicle goes dormant for a short while before growing hair again.
When the follicle goes dormant, the existing hair falls out. Your laser treatment won’t be effective on the follicles if the hair has fallen out. This is the reason why you need additional treatment sessions to catch the follicles when they start the growth cycle.
At any given day, about 10-15% of your hair follicles are dormant. And since each follicle follows its own timing and growth pattern, one requires multiple treatments to reach all the follicles at the right time. This is the reason why certain people believe that laser hair reduction is not working for them, it is because either they don’t follow through with the specified course of treatment or they go to a service provider who doesn’t have an array of laser technologies to target hair growth at different stages, colors, or growth patterns.
5 Reasons Why You Should Invest in Laser Hair Reduction?
-
You can enjoy your summer body at all time
Whether you’re at the beach or barbecuing in your backyard, summertime means all the shorts, tank tops, sundresses, and swimsuits are out of the wardrobe– outfits that demand a hair-free body, especially the areas that you may have ignored during the winter. Laser hair reduction is the perfect solution for this dilemma as it’s safe to use for your entire body. You can target unwanted hair growth for all areas of your body and enjoy silky, smooth skin for a long, long time.
-
Get rid of the hassle of shaving and waxing
Shaving, waxing, and plucking are all good methods of hair removal, but you probably won’t have the time to shave when your friends stop by on the spur of the moment, all hyped up to jump into the pool. Summertime means more of your skin is exposed, which also leads to frequent waxing, shaving, and plucking. Laser hair reduction permanently eliminates hair, so that you can be free from the hassle of constantly picking up the razor or booking your wax appointment.
-
Get flawless smooth skin
Have you ever stepped into the swimming pool after being freshly shaved or waxed? Many people quickly realize that salt in the ocean and chlorine in the pool can aggravate freshly shaved skin. For sensitive skin, this can cause burning, and pain beyond temporary irritation. Shaving and waxing also lead to an excess of ingrown hair which can leave ghastly scars and bumps on the skin. Shaving right before hitting the beach or pool can also make your skin more vulnerable to irritation from sand, sunlight, and sunscreen. You can now put these worries to rest with Laser hair reduction.
-
It is cost-effective
Although the upfront cost of laser hair reduction may seem higher compared to traditional methods of hair removal like waxing and threading, a broader perspective reveals substantial long-term savings. If you consider the accumulated cost of razors, shaving creams, waxing appointments, and depilatory products over the years, the cost of getting laser hair reduction will pale in comparison. In contrast, laser hair reduction offers a cost-effective solution by delivering long-lasting results, and in some cases, even permanent hair reduction.
Conclusion
Whether you’re a man or woman, old or young, – chances are that you’ve spent a good portion of your life plucking, shaving, or waxing unwanted hair. So this summer, ditch the endless, frustrating cycle of hair removal and flaunt your beautiful summer skin without unwanted hair with laser hair reduction.
