Laser hair removal treatments are a growing trend and one of the fastest growing procedures in the medical industry. Currently an estimated 5 million people a month are inquiring about Laser Hair Removal online and over 2 million people every year are reaping the benefits from laser hair removal treatments.
There are many different FDA approved light-based devices used in medical offices across the country to permanently reduce hair. The major difference of the devices is the energy output, also known as “class level” created by the FDA.
Class levels determine how deep beneath the skin the energy penetrates, the higher the class, the greater energy output and deeper penetration, and vise-versa. The two most common light-based devices used to perform laser hair removal are intense pulsed light (IPL) and laser devices.
IPL works well primarily for skin-rejuvenating procedures that require low energy, but all IPL devices are Class 2, meaning that the energy produced is enough to effectuate the skin just below the surface but generally does not provide enough energy to affect unwanted hair at the root. IPLdevices are commonly used for laser hair removal mainly due to the low cost of the equipment to the provider. They do not produce lifelong results, they only stunt hair growth rather than truly kill hair follicles at the root and patients who receive IPL treatment for laser hair removal will need to continuously receive treatments every 8 to 12 weeks to maintain the results. IPL devices are best suited for surface level skin rejuvenating procedures.
Laser devices use a precise wavelength of light that is specifically optimized for the treatment of last hair removal and are the highest class (class 4) and the most powerful class level approved by the FDA. They can permanently remove hair and provide lifelong results. Laser not only produced permanent results, laser also has other benefits like actually destroying the root of the hair so after a completed series of treatments the skin looks and feels softer because there is no longer any hair just beneath the skin’s surface. Laser devices will naturally tighten your skin reducing the appearance of wrinkles and age lines, reduce or eliminate brown spots or age spots in the treatment area, eliminate razor bumps and ingrown hairs medically known as pseudo folliculitis and leave your skin softer and smoother than ever before.
