What is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal has become one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the United States. Each year over $650 million is spent on the procedure. Originally thought to totally remove hair, laser hair removal actually causes hair to lay dormant, where it cannot be seen. The process of laser hair removal has continued to improve as the laser technology has improved. It is today by far the most widely used high-tech method for hair removal. Laser hair removal techniques provide an extremely fast treatment time with little discomfort and less pain as compared to other hair removal methods like waxing. It provides long-lasting effects and since lasers work on removing multiple follicles at a single time, the process is much faster than other similar techniques.
