Laser Hair Removal Modern lasers can remove unwanted hair with more speed, accuracy and comfort that the other conventional methods, replacing or used in combination with electrolysis. It has revolutionized the hair removal process and since it is a non-invasive procedure, the risk of infection is greatly reduced. Many follicles are treated at one time; decreasing the amount of time needed and the accuracy of the treatment is increased over other methods due to a more controlled apparatus. The laser produces a beam of highly concentrated light, which is absorbed by the melanin, located in hair follicles. It pulses for a fraction of a second, just long enough to disable the follicle and eliminate the ability of the follicle to reproduce another hair.
