Basics Of Laser Hair Removal Toronto

By April Briggs


This is the process of removing unnecessary hairs by making use of laser rays which work to destroy the hair. It was done experimentally twenty years before it became accepted as a method of hair removal in mid nineteen nineties. The dermatologists have widely accepted the efficiency of laser hair removal Toronto and it is practiced widely in the clinics and even at homes using appliances that are specially designed for self-therapy.

It is more than mere destruction of the unwanted hair. Just like all other medical procedures, special training in order to perform it is required as there might be risks that may be involved. It is thus recommended to do a thorough background check of the medical professional who will be performing this procedure on you before embarking on the process.

Do not perform waxing, electrolysis or plucking for a time of six weeks before being treated. These processes remove the hair at the roots which are also targets for the treatment. Sun exposure should also be avoided for six weeks also because such exposure damages the skin and also makes the therapy less effective.

The main principle of hairs removal by the rays is selective photo thermolysis in which the specific wavelength of the light and the pulse period to have the best effect on the targeted portion of the skin without having an effect on the surrounding portions. The rays can cause a local damage when they localize on selectively heating melanin in the hair follicle and not acting on other areas of the skin. Light is easily absorbed by darkened objects and so logically melanin does that in the skin with even a larger intensity. This targeted dark material can be occurring naturally or introduced artificially.

Melanin is usually considered the main chromophore in all types of hairs removal involving laser in Toronto. Melanin is naturally in human skin giving it and hair color. Types of melanin include eumelanin and pheomelanin, eumelanin is what gives your hair brown or even a black color while pheomelanin gives blonde and also red color.

Owing to photons selective absorption of light from laser only brown or black hair is able to be removed as it works best in dark coarsened hairs. Having dark care and a light skin is the ideal combination for this type of treatment as they produce best results. However the new lasers available can aim at black hair for those patient having dark skin and achieve some degree of success.

The procedure is gaining popularity in Toronto at a faster rate because of efficacy and speed attached to it although this is also linked to the know-how and skills of the operator. Having different technologies to perform the treatment and the choice of which to be used on different patients is a factor affecting the efficacy of the treatment too.

Some of the clients may need subsequent touch ups especially on the large areas after having the initial three to eight treatments. Some of the clients do not respond to the therapy and this comes in when the therapy is done using the wrong instruments or the parameters of these equipment are too low. Sometimes it could be because the client is not a viable candidate for the procedure.
