What is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is typically preformed by physcians or trained professionals through the process of destorying hair follicules with the use of heat from the lasers light. LHR can be preformed almost anywhere hair grows suh as the underarms, legs, face, arms, and even feet. This process gradually slows the hair growth process and causes the hair to thin after an average of six sessions. Eventually, resulting in minimal hair growth after the series is completed. Although laser hair removal is not permanant the effect can last years if not disturbed by hormonal imbalance. For the best LHR results it is recommended to shave before each sessions and be consistant with sessions.
