Unwanted hair is a problem faced not just by women, but also men. Women tend to get unwanted hair on their upper lip or eyebrow area, under the arms and legs and the most common, bikini area. Men suffer from unwanted hair in places like joint eyebrows, chest and back. Those who want to do away with this hair had options like waxing and shaving, tweezing, depilatory creams, and electrolysis which all worked to an extent but provided only temporary relief.
With the help of laser hair removal, this can be solved. No doubt then, that laser hair removal is so popular. It is one of the most demanded cosmetic treatments. The demand comes not just from women. Over 25% of laser hair removal treatments are done by men.
Laser treatment is not only painless, but also practically permanent and successfully removes all unwanted hair.
By far the most effective and the fastest, laser hair removal takes only 10 minutes per session. This procedure is done under complete supervision and is performed by an experienced doctor or a cosmetic surgeon in a medical office or a hospital. The surgeon first preps up the area, then applies an anaesthetic cream before starting the laser facial hair removal treatment. As with all medical procedures, even laser hair removal has after effects and the patient may have redness, sensitivity and crusting of the skin within first week of the treatment. Patients should try and avoid the sun after undergoing laser hair removal for few weeks.

Skin Refirme/Tightening Treatment- Goals of Dermal remodelling and Laxity Improvement
Loss of collagen fiber and elastin in the dermis results in loss of the dermal volume which is the appearances of fine lines, wrinkles, laxity and sagging in the skin.
The Skin Refirme/Tightening procedure stimulates long term collagen growth as well as tightening existing collagen fibers, which results in an immediate firmed and lifted appearance. Fine lines and wrinkles appear smoothed out and softened. Laxity of the brows, jowls, neck and cheek is improved from immediate tissue contracture with bulk heating, and may continue to improve appearances with delayed collagen repair response. By building new collagen in the dermal support structure that superficial acne scarring and enlarged pores may also appear improved.
Improvement of skin texture and laxity occurs over a series of few treatments without down-time or any side effects and Skin Refirme/Tightening procedure is safely performed on all skin types.
If the laser hair removal treatment is painless, why the need of anaesthetic cream application?
