Causes of Unwanted Hair

Major factors contribute to the growth of excess hair:

· Heredity
· Racial Characteristics
· Glandular Disturbances
· Medication
· Topical Influences
· Stress

Puberty, pregnancy, and menopause can also cause excess hair growth. During the normal systemic changes in a woman's life, hormone production varies. It is not uncommon for hormones during these times to be unbalanced. Increased male hormones (androgens) can be present which may result in unwanted hair growth. Remove unwanted hair with our Palomar™ Pulsed Light. The Palomar™ Pulsed Light Laser produces a permanent reduction of unwanted hair from virtually any part of the body and is the most effective and safest laser made. The FDA has approved this laser to treat all skin types.

What is it? Palomar™ Pulsed Light Hair Removal System is an FDA cleared machine that puts out a single wavelength of infrared light (1064 nm). It works safely on tan or dark-toned skin to permanently reduce the number of visible hairs. How many treatments will I require? The number of sessions will vary according to individual factors, as will the success rate. The average patient will want to have 6 treatments performed at 5-6 week intervals. They will help you get the most out of each session as well as explain the process thoroughly. Each session generally lasts 15-30 minutes.

What are the side effects? Most side effects are short term. Immediate side effects include some reddening of the skin and localized swelling that goes away fairly quickly. Rarely there may be some minor burning or a pinpoint blister. Blistering can create a lighter or darker spot on the skin. Darkened spots gradually fade over time.
