Laser Hair Removal in Baton Rouge, LA
Say Goodbye to Unwanted Hair
Permanently remove unwanted body or facial hair. The laser light stimulates the hair follicle to destroy its root, which stops growth and results in long-term hair reduction or permanent removal.
Say Goodbye to Unwanted Hair
Laser hair removal uses technology in which a beam of light is applied to unwanted hair on various parts of the body. This light is a specific wavelength that targets melanin—the pigment in the hair that gives it color, in the hair follicle. When the light enters the follicle, it is converted to heat energy that destroys/inactivates the follicle, preventing the hair from growing again. There are three stages of hair growth. They are: Anagen—active growth; Catagen—a brief phase in which growth stops, and resting begins; and Telogen—a resting phase in which no further growth occurs. In order for laser treatments to be effective, hair must be in the active growth stage—Anagen. Because individual hairs are at different stages of growth at any given time, multiple laser treatments are required to target all of them when they are in the Anagen stage. This is the reason that each subsequent treatment must be spaced out appropriately.
