“Beauty”-full methods



It is said that beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. Although that might be the case with some people, there are others that have not won the genetic lottery and are less fortunate when it comes to certain physical features. However, in this modern day and age, technology has progressed to a degree that allows the majority of people to rectify the wrongs done to them by nature (in their own opinion). Plastic surgery is so advanced that even the most complicated operations and appearance altering procedures can be done in a matter of hours with no or minimal consequences. Such too is the case with laser hair removal parramatta


Laser hair removal is a commonly applied medical procedure that has been experimented with for over 20 years, and has entered standard practice in the mid 1990s. It is used for the permanent removal of hair from various areas of the body, such as the bikini area, the neck, back, chest, shoulders, stomach, thighs, calves etc. The procedure itself is characterized by a minimal amount of discomfort and it usually takes several treatments to fully remove all the hair from a targeted area. Over 90 % of patients who have attempted laser hair removal have reported permanent hair loss afterwards.  
Although there are certain minimal risks to this procedure, there are also various benefits. Some of the benefits include:
·         Predictability – in average, only three to five sessions are required in order for permanent hair loss to occur in treated areas;
·         Speed – each laser pulse is able to treat numerous hair follicles at the same time and only takes a split second. Larger areas of the body can be treated in up to one hour (the back, for example) while the smaller areas of the body only take a few seconds to treat (such as the upper lip).
·         Precision – lasers are designed in a way that does not damage the surrounding skin while at the same time target coarse, strong, dark hairs.
