Atlanta Laser Hair Removal doctors

Our office has seen the best results with Luminous Light Sheer and Syneron Elos Technology.

The modern methods of hair removal using lasers all rely on pigment.  If a hair is white, the laser cannot interact with the hair follicle and will have no effect.  The most effective way to permanently remove white hair is with electrolysis treatment.  This will permanently remove the hair regardless of color.  Hope this was helpful.

There is no doubt that Laser Hair Removal has revolutionized the laser techno era! As with any procedure, it is always smart to weigh the pros and cons.  Laser hair removal definitely offers more pros!  Not only can you remove unwanted hairs, but you can also satisfactorily address ingrown hairs and the excess pigmentation that comes with them! 

Side effects are usually an issue only when done improperly or if the patient has used a medication, depilitator or some other agent that has made the skin more vulnerable to burning and irritation.  Side effects include blistering, excess pigmentation, accidental removal of permanent make-up/tattoos, and stimulation of cold sores in areas previously infected with the herpes simplex virus.  Make sure you give your doctor/caretaker a thorough medical history beforehand.  Side effects are quite minimal and can be remedied usually very easily.
