There are numerous advantages to having a laser hair removal product available for consumers to take home and treat themselves. Laser hair removal is one of the most effective methods of hair removal in terms of permanence and is very safe when used properly. Now anyone can take the laser machine home and apply the treatment to themselves as many times as necessary without having to pay for multiple sessions at a clinic.
The technique of using a laser to prevent hair from re-growing has been around for many years now. It works by targeting the root of the hair follicle and heating it with a laser until the hair is damaged and stops growing. It is much more effective than temporary solutions like shaving or waxing and much less painful than electrolysis which uses needles to send electric charges to damage the root of the hair.
Now people don't have to spend the time and effort to research and schedule appointments with a clinic to have minor areas treated with laser. There are a lot of people who like the idea of removing unwanted hairs but limit themselves to temporary solutions because they don't have the desire to go to a clinic. This home laser machine allows these people to receive the same treatment on their own time whenever they want.
It can cost anything from $1,000 to $3,000 for the entire treatment at a clinic performed by a doctor. This is the approximate total cost of treating a typically sized area while a home device is more affordable costing around $800 to $1,000. Since laser hair removal requires multiple treatments over time to remove most of the hair, a take home device allows the consumer to do the procedure themselves and additional touch ups at no additional cost.
Typical results are very inspiring with reports of 50% to 80% reduction in hair re-growth. The results normally last at least a year or longer and touch ups are normally required once every other year or so. For maximum hair removal, the entire process would require treatment every 2 to 4 weeks for a period of 4 to 8 months depending on the size of the area and strength of the hair.
As long as the device is used properly and manufacturer instructions are followed, home laser hair removal machines are generally regarded as a very safe method of hair removal. The only major problems that can occur are when it is used on dark or tanned skin. As a general safety guidelines buy an FDA approved device, follow instructions and use common sense.
