  1. What You Should Know If You Have Coarse Hair Before Laser Hair Removal in Port Coquitlam

  2. If you have thick or coarse hair and are considering laser hair removal, you are not alone. Many Port Coquitlam residents are curious to know how hair type can impact the effectiveness of laser hair removal. Thankfully, thick hair tends to respond quite positively to laser hair removal. However, there are a few points you should be aware of before booking your initial appointment.

  3. Why Coarse Hair is Suitable for Laser Treatments Laser hair removal employs intense light to target and destroy hair follicles. However, this light is first absorbed by the pigment (melanin) within the hair. The light becomes heat, which damages hair and prevents it from regrowing. Dense hair contains a lot of colour and is usually dark; therefore, it captures more light. This allows for effective laser hair removal. Port Coquitlam clients who have thick hair might notice a result before those who have fine hair for this reason. After several treatments, thick hair tends to become thin and soft. With consistent treatments, most individuals notice a significant reduction in hair growth.

  4. Time Intensive Although thick hair tends to respond quite nicely to laser hair removal it is not an immediate solution. Hair has a natural growth cycle and is best treated when it is growing. You'll require a series of treatments to remove all the hair. Most of our Port Coquitlam clients require six to eight treatments for optimal outcomes, but that can vary. Individuals with thick hair require multiple sessions. The number of sessions depends on which area of the body is receiving treatment and how fast hair grows. Treating facial hair, for example, requires more time than hair from areas like the underarms or legs.

  5. The Importance of a Professional Some Port Coquitlam patients with thicker hair worry that laser hair removal might be painful. The good news is that it is still quite comfortable, especially when choosing an experienced provider. Before a laser hair removal session, you visit the clinic for a consultation, which allows the technician to evaluate your hair and skin type to find the most effective treatment for you. Today's laser systems are suitable for most hair and skin types. They typically incorporate cooling mechanisms to help make treatment less painful. If you are experiencing pain while being treated, minor adjustments can make a significant difference.

  6. Before and After Laser Hair Removal The key to successful laser hair removal lies in your pre and post- treatment care. Port Coquitlam clinics provide preparation and aftercare guidelines to ensure the best laser hair removal results. Do not wax or pluck the treated area since the laser requires the hair root to be present. Shaving is acceptable and is often recommended the day before your appointment. Avoid the sun, and don't apply harsh products after treatment. Redness and mild swelling are common and tend to subside within a day or two. If you have thick hair, you may notice small bumps post-hair removal. They will disappear quickly as your skin heals and adjusts to it. Overall, laser hair removal does wonders for coarse hair. At our clinic, our clients frequently rave about the reduction in overall hair growth, smoother skin, and the confidence it gives them. You may require more treatments than someone with thin hair, but the outcome is worthwhile.
