Laser Hair removal

Excess, unwanted hair is often a problem for a woman, or a man. Women frequently experience this condition on the face, especially the upper lip or eyebrow area, in the bikini area, under the arms or on the legs. Men often want to get rif of hair on their back or chest.

Laser hair removal systems use laser light � an intense, pulsating beam of light � to remove unwanted hair. Your doctor may use multiple treatments to target areas such as the face, upper lip, neck, breasts, chest, underarms, back, abdomen, bikini line and legs.
A single treatment costs an average of $390, according to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.

Advantages of Laser Hair Removal

• Many people have experienced long-lasting hair removal or permanent hair reduction.
• It is considered safe if performed properly.
• It's particularly useful for large areas such as backs or legs.
• If regrowth occurs, it will be lighter in color or finer in texture.
• Light-skinned consumers with dark hair have the best results.

Are you a candidate for laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is not for everyone. The most important requirement is that your hair must be darker than the surrounding skin. Tanned people with dark hair should wait until their tan fades before they are treated.
Darkly pigmented people absorb too much laser energy in their skin and are not good candidates.

What areas can be treated?

Any area can be treated, except near the eyes. The most common areas requested are the face, upper lip, neck, chest, periareolar, underarms, back, abdomen, bikini line, and legs.

Will laser hair removal hurt?

The level of pain from laser hair removal depends on the patient and the person's skin and hair type. Generally, the treatment tends to hurt less for people with lighter skin tones and finer hair. Most people tolerate laser hair removal very well.

If it is becoming uncomfortable, the laser technician can offer you topical anesthetic that numbs the skin. Depending on the type of laser being used, a cool laser tip, gel, or spray is always used to increase comfort of the laser hair removal treatment.

The sensation from laser hair removal has been described as discomfort rather than pain - similar to the feeling of a rubber band being snapped against your skin with a sensation of heat.

Permanent Hair Removal

The FDA does not allow for the marketing of technologies and services that state permanent hair removal. This is because most technologies provide for permanent reduction in hair growth 90% of the time. It is not perfect.

Give your hair that Lustrous shine!

With the sun beating down on your tresses, it’s difficult to maintain that lustrous shine. But what’s the point in hiding under a hat or bandana all the time. A few simple tricks will help keep your mane in top shape.

Hair care experts like Edwin Chapiseau of Jeane Claude Biguine and Aalim Hakim advise customers to use hair masques to give tresses an added boost of moisture. Using leave-in conditioners during the summer can protect hair from drying out.

Serums work like sunscreens on the hair.. they cut out UV rays and protect hair fibre from damage. Remember that coloured hair which is exposed to the sun for long hours tends to lighten. Choose warmer colours like auburn, mahagony and cinammon that look good on Indian skin and won’t loose their richness. Lighter shades like brown and blonde tend to become too light, cutting out the shine.

Ity Agarwal of Psalm 23, the Bandra-based salon, recommends textured bobs as the ‘it’ look of the season. “All you need is the right mindset to be able to wear a bob,” she says. “There is a variation for every face shape and attitude.” Agarwal advises those with round faces to get an bob with an asymmetrical front which will balance the plumpness of the cheeks. A straight fringe can be avoided as it will only enhance the face shape.

Paired with side-swept bangs, the bob can end just at the jawline making it the ultimate summer cooler. Use lighter colours to highlight the layers in the back and front.

Blowdrying hair is to be avoided during the summer. As the humidity levels in the city won’t allow your perfectly blow-dried coif to remain intact, just rely on a towel-dry.

Wavy hair is in and can be accentuated with a little mousse for a sexy day look. For an easy-breezy night look, use rollers to get those big curls. Separate them using your fingers and pin them up into a loose bun with sequined clips. This five-minute routine will have you turning heads all night.
