Description:
In a single treatment, not all of the hair follicles will be treated. Some follicles are removed permanently, others may be miniaturised into vellus hairs (light, fine hairs), and some enter prolonged dormancy. The initial treatment should be repeated to take care of active hair follicles that were not effectively treated in the first session as new hair growth is observed, this will typically be some 2 to 4 weeks later depending on where the treatment area is.
Further treatments should be planned at regular intervals to clear hairs that are coming out of the resting phase and into the active growth phase. Given the number of hair follicles in the resting phase at any given time, this new hair re-growth can be significant.
Successfully treated hairs will generally fall out within 1 - 2 weeks, light rubbing will encourage this. Any follicles without a target hair within will simply grow again and can be treated next time round.
Using a light wavelength of 800nm actually enables treatment of darker skin types as well as fair-skinned types. However, laser hair treatment is not suitable for Afro Caribbean or black skin complexions. Laser treatment is also ineffective in removal of white or grey hair. Electrolysis should be considered as an alternative treatment.
