It’s a simple formula: heat + hair follicle pigment = bye bye hair!
Laser hair removal works by passing a light beam through the skin. The laser targets dark pigment, called melanin, in hair. What this really means is that the laser uses heat to seek out the hair follicles that are active. The heat then permanently disables the hair follicle by targeting the melanin (pigment) within the follicle. The reason several treatments are needed is because only about 30% of hair follicles are active at any given time. Back To Questions | Next
