Dr. Alkek says
Unwanted hair can be a nightmare. Men and women alike are pleased with laser hair removal, which replaced the older, painful hair removal treatments. The laser can treat larger areas such as the back, shoulders, arms, legs, and face. The number of treatments required for optimal long-term benefits depends on the area treated, the hair color and the hair’s growth cycle. Usually three to six treatments are sufficient. Age, ethnicity, weight, hormones, diet, medication and metabolism all play a part in the hair’s location, thickness and resilience. After each treatment, the area is cleansed and you can return to your normal activities. A sunscreen is recommended for 72 hours on any treated areas exposed to the sun. Laser hair removal is safe, fast, gentle and provides long lasting, if not permanent hair removal.
