Procedure | ExpressCare - Guam

In laser hair removal, the laser light energy is penetrated the hair shaft to burn the hair follicle. For large areas like the back, chest, legs, and arms it may take more time as compared to the face, underarms, and bikini area. Generally, one session of the laser takes about 10 minutes to 2 hours approx, depending on the target area.
Different technologies have been invented to target different hair types and skin colors. Laser hair removal results are permanent but require annual touch-up sessions to maintain results.
At ExpressCare follow 3-step process to ensure your skin gets all the care and attention it deserves, while you enjoy a comfortable and memorable experience.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Help With Unwanted Hair

The principle on which it works is known as selective photothermolysis, a fancy way of saying that light selectively breaks cell structures of a specific color through the generation of heat. In the case of laser hair removal, these are basal stem cells that lead to hair growth from the follicle. This helps deactivate the follicles from future growth. When we say selective, it also means that the laser does not affect other structures around it, which includes the skin. Laser hair reduction does not give desirable results in a single session. We must repeat the procedure multiple times to target hair follicles in different growth phases. 6-8 sessions are usually enough to permanently reduce 80-100% of hair growth.
