Removal of unwanted body hair can be a very inconvenient and time taking process.
Why inconvenient? Because tweezing is painful, razor can give you razor burns and waxing is
again quite painful as and you may have to deal with skin allergies sometimes
if you have a sensitive skin. Body hair removal is not only a matter
of concern for women but men as well.
The most common areas for hair removal in women include face, neck, arms, underarms,
stomach, bikini area and legs.
While in men the most common treatment areas are
face (beard shaping), chest, shoulders, arms, stomach and legs.
Any permanent damage to the skin through laser treatment for hair removal is quite rare.
Usually, the skin appears to be sunburned for a few days and
then goes back to looking normal. Sometimes blisters may also appear, especially
in case of people with dark skin. Usually, patients feel a little discomfort, rashes,
redness or irritation in the treated area after the treatment. An ice pack or cooling cream or gel is usually recommended to take care of this situation.
