Diode Laser Hair Reduction at Dr. Amit Kerure's Skin & Hair Transplant Clinic in Navi Mumbai is an advanced, painless treatment designed to permanently reduce unwanted hair. Using precise laser technology, this non-invasive procedure targets hair follicles, leaving your skin smooth and hair-free with minimal downtime.
Diode laser hair reduction is a popular and effective method for achieving long-term hair removal. It uses laser light to target hair follicles, weakening them to reduce hair growth over time. This procedure is especially beneficial for those seeking a safe and permanent solution to unwanted hair on various parts of the body.
Diode laser hair reduction works by emitting a concentrated beam of light that penetrates the skin and is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicles. This heat damages the follicles, inhibiting future hair growth. The diode laser is highly precise and targets dark, coarse hair without affecting the surrounding skin, making it a preferred choice for many.
Before starting the treatment, your skin will be cleaned, and a cooling gel may be applied to protect it. The diode laser handpiece is then moved over the treatment area, emitting pulses of light that feel like a mild snapping sensation. The procedure typically lasts between 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
While diode laser hair reduction is considered a comfortable procedure, you may feel slight discomfort, similar to the snap of a rubber band. However, many patients find it manageable, and the cooling gel or air applied before the treatment helps minimize any pain. The sensation subsides quickly, and any redness or swelling usually resolves within a few hours.
