Laser hair removal uses a focused beam of light to target hair follicles beneath the skin. This light energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, which heats and destroys the follicle, inhibiting future hair growth. Since facial hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are needed to target all follicles effectively. With each session, hair growth becomes finer, lighter, and slower, resulting in a smooth, hair-free complexion.
