Know Before Undergoing A Laser Hair Removal Procedure

Laser hair removal was available for commercial use in mid 1990s after 20 years of experiments. It was authored by Massachusetts general hospital in 1980 and operates under the principles of matching the pulse of tissues and the light wavelength commonly known as selective photothermolysis. It is currently being used widely in homes and clinics because of its efficiency and speed. Efficiency is biased to the skills and the experience of the operator and of course the availability and choice of laser technologies which makes the tips for a perfect laser hair removal desirable.
Shave your hair a few days before the operation to make the stumps hard and visible for better results. Your hair should also not be waxed when about to get the treatment. This is because the wax pulls strands and ends up living limited hair surfaces to be absorbed by lesser.
Choose the right type and if you are getting the treatment from a clinic, find out what types are available and the experience they have had with them. The laser types come in different wave lengths that are designed to fit specific skin tones. Ask the one recommended for you as it can be harmful with the wrong skin type.
When using this at home, make sure you know how to use it and if need be go back to the instructions and read again just to be sure. It is also important to know what to expect from the treatment before you give the hospital a go ahead to perform it. Do not be pressured to sign the documentation and if you are not sure, request for more time to think over it.
Your eyes are at risk and therefore plans should be made to acquire protective gears such as goggles to avoid risks related to blindness when using the remover. Mixing medication is harmful to your health and for you to be safe, inform the doctor if you are on aspirins, anti-steroids, vitamin supplements and anti-inflammatory medicines. Ideally, you have a responsibility to let the doctor know of any other medication you are taking..
Pulses from laser light can hurt you and for this reason a recommendation of an anesthetic cream from a medic will help. A lidocaine coat can also be applied at least an hour before the treatment. Scaring, blisters, skin discoloration, soreness, redness and inflammation are some of the dangers that may occur during this procedure and it is important to seek medical attention.
Determine whether the doctor to handle you is qualified and has enough equipment to be used for this procedure. You can get the help from friends and relatives who have done this before for recommendations on where you can get better and safer services. This should be a licensed doctor.
Finally, it is important to know the charges to see whether you can afford to pay for the laser hair removal procedure. The cost will vary based on the part of the body to be treated since some are very sensitive and risky. You will get good results if you put the above considerations in mind.
