For people who want to remove unwanted hair, laser hair removal is an extremely popular procedure, with millions of satisfied customers who swear by it. And yes, many of these customers are celebrities.
What makes laser hair removal so popular? First, let’s get the facts on what it is exactly and how the procedure works.
Laser hair removal
Laser hair removal directs an intense, pulsating beam of light on hair follicles to remove unwanted hair. The laser damages the hair follicles, which weakens and inhibits future hair growth. Over a series of treatments, the hair is greatly reduced and the skin is left smooth and soft.
What do celebrities love about laser hair removal?
Celebrities usually lead the way when it comes to the cutting edge of beauty techniques. This is no surprise, since it’s often a part of their job to look their best. Unwanted hair not only affects their overall aesthetic, which can be a big part of who they are to the world, but it is a time-consuming nuisance to take care of.
Shaving, waxing and tweezing take precious time in their busy lives, and can leave rashes, stubble or other unsightly side effects. When it comes to laser hair removal, the treatments are very quick and the ultimate end effect is smooth, hairless skin at any moment--no fuss, no time wasted, and no worry.
Celebrities who are open about their positive results with laser hair removal
Probably the most famous example is Kim Kardashian. She and her siblings have discussed having legs, arms, bikini line, underarms, neck and baby hair on the forehead done. Kim mentioned in the Oprah show how she considers laser hair removal to be a part of her regular beauty regime.
Alyssa Milano was able to address her arms and legs with laser treatments. She stated that the laser treatments were painful for her, but the outcome made it all worth it.
Victoria Beckham has spoken about her positive laser hair removal treatments.
Ashley Roberts has talked about getting laser hair removal on her legs and said the treatment saved her life because she was having to deal with shaving her legs twice per day.
Reality show actor Lily Galichi discussed her issues with redness after shaving, and how much she loves laser hair removal now for armpits, bikini area, and full face.
These are just a few examples of the many celebrities who have talked about their positive experiences with laser hair removal.
How many treatments will I need to see results from laser hair removal?
From the time of treatment, it will take 1-3 weeks to see the full results. The hair in the treated area will be thinner with just one treatment.
To work, the laser beam has to directly hit the hair follicles during the time they are in their growth process. Hair follicles don’t all grow together at the same time, so multiple treatments need to be done to complete the full process. To ensure all the follicles have been treated in the targeted area, it will take 6-8 treatments. Each treatment is spaced one month apart.
There is no downtime or recovery needed, although there may be stinging or a painful sensation during the procedure.
