Having 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.

Hair removal by using laser rays is not just getting rid of unwanted hairs. It is a complex process that requires one to be trained and specialized because it comes with great risks. Before having the process done on you, ascertain that the doctor is experienced in performing it.

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.

Selective photothermolysis is the main principle behind this process in Toronto. This is matching of specific light wavelength and duration of pulse for purposes of obtaining optimal effect onto the tissues targeted and minimal effect to tissues surrounding it. It causes localized damage through its selective damage by heating melanin on the follicle. The remaining parts of skin are not heated. The rays are absorbed at a greater intensity and speed by the dark matter of the skin which can be artificially introduced or naturally occurring in the skin.

For the currently available removals in the city Toronto, melanin is the main chromophore. It occurs naturally inside the skin and it gives a color to the skin. Melanin are of two types. Eumelanin makes the hairs to be brown while pheomelanin makes the hairs to appear blonde or red.

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 due to its efficacy and speed although its effectiveness depends on the operator experience and skill. The availability and choice of different technologies of laser used in treatment contributes to the effectiveness and the success of this procedure.

After the initial treatments which usually last for three up to eight weeks some patient may need touch ups. Some are however termed as non-responders and it mainly happens if the incorrect appliance is used or the appliance parameters are extremely low. Sometimes it is because the patient simply is not a suited candidate for this procedure.
