As temperatures rise, lots of people look forward to soaking up the sun at a nearby beach. In preparation for summer, many opt for non-invasive laser hair removal to eliminate unwanted body hair and flaunt smooth, flawless skin.

Many patients in Southern California find that they can get affordable yet top-notch laser hair removal and other cosmetic procedures right across the Mexican border. At Tijuana laser hair removal centers like Baja Medi Spa, for instance, highly skilled staff are trained to perform safe and non-invasive laser skin procedures in a comfortable environment, with treatment durations depending on the type of hair and the target area. These practitioners also provide tips on proper post-treatment skin care to prevent complications and ensure optimal results.

How Laser Hair Removal Works

Dark objects absorb light, and this is the main principle behind laser hair removal. A specific wavelength of light is matched with precise pulse durations and directed at hair follicles. Follicles contain a dark pigment called melanin that absorbs the concentrated laser beams. This technique destroys hair in the target areas without affecting surrounding tissue and prevents further regrowth for up to a few months. Unlike traditional and painstaking depilatory procedures, laser hair removal treats the underarms, legs, and other areas in mere minutes.

Factors to Consider

Patients experience varying degrees of success from laser hair removal. People with lighter skin tones and dark hair colors can typically expect optimal results from laser hair removal as laser is absorbed faster by the hair follicles. Those with darker skin tones, on the other hand, often need to undergo more sessions before they can see results.

What to Expect

Very few patients notice dramatic hair reduction after a single laser session. For most people, an average of 4-6 sessions carried out over several months would be necessary for visible and lasting results. At any rate, laser is capable of removing hair follicles much faster than electrolysis, which can take years to produce the desired effects.

For your safety and peace of mind, be sure to visit a facility that is supervised by a board certified dermatologist such as Dr. Sara Lea Salas of Baja Medi Spa.
