A person who wishes to undergo a hair removal procedure has a multitude of aspects to ponder upon before choosing which one. Since this is a life changing treatment, a person has to be aware of the many factors that go along with it and study the available options they have. To do so, one must conduct some research and formulate inquiries that will help them make a decision.

Thanks to the hard work of innovators in the industry, there are now countless services that people can enjoy the benefits of. One of the most popularly known treatment is alexandrite laser, and this is a highly effective and convenient way to remove any unwanted follicles. Only individuals who carry an official FDA license can conduct the procedure and operate the equipment.

Through amplifying a certain amount of light through radiation, a beam of light is produced. This beam is then used to hit the surface of an alexandrite crystal so that a red laser is made. The average size of this beam is about 750 nanometers and its length equates to how effective it will be when used on the skin of a person.

Alexandrite has a high level of efficiency because it utilized short and measured pulses instead of continuous laser emission. Not only that, it also has the capacity to reduce visible scars and birthmarks. Other people use the service in order to treat various age spots and also spider veins. This is also used for tattoo removal and clear skin can be achieved after a particular number of sessions.

Just like any other treatment in the market, alexandrite also has its limits and results will vary from person to person. Men and women who have a darker complexion will require more sessions because the laser will need more time to take effect. Not only that, dark and thick follicles will also take longer to fully remove compared to wispy ones.

After the recommended number of sessions, clients can expect the hair to clear out by at least seventy percent. However, the number of sessions will depend upon the thickness of the hair. For instance, a person with thin and fine hair will have an average of six to eight treatments, while thick and dark will take at least eight to twelve.

Be aware though that it also has some undesirable side effects when not properly done. For instance, men and women with a fair complexion are prone to dark spots due to the excess of melanin production. This happens when the treatment is overdone and not treated properly. There is also a possibility of darker complexions obtaining hypo pigmentation, where spots of skin lighten considerably.

Pain is an aspect that most people are already aware of. It is nothing to worry about though, because the pain is very tolerable and will not require a high pain tolerance to endure. A special cooling gel is usually applied by the dermatologist one she or he is done with the entire procedure. This is done in order to hinder any swelling. However, some men and women may feel an itchy or have swelling in their treated areas but that will subside in the days to come.

Perhaps the most important factor to ascertain is if any hair removal treatment is approved by the FDA.This is detrimental not only to the success of the entire procedure, but also to ensure the safety of the patient planning on undergoing such a thing. Alexandrite is safe though since it was long approved in 1997.
