Ready to get rid of all the unwanted hair?
Ideal for patients with significant contrast between their unwanted hair and their skin, the BBL laser can target the pigment in the hair and use the laser to effectively kill the hair follicle and prevent regrowth. It is recommended that patients undergo a series of 5 to 6 treatments, about a month apart, to target hair at different phases of the growth cycle. This is effective for most skin types, but is less effective for patients with very dark skin, or pale skin with light hair. Patients with tanned skin are advised to wait until the tan (whether artificial or not) fades so that the laser can more effectively target the pigment only in the hair.
