Laser Hair Removal Centers

With the rapid growth of laser hair removal centers around the country, choosing the best one for your specific needs can be a bit daunting. Many candidates find it helpful to take advantage of the free consultations offered at most clinics, scheduling several before making a decision. Getting client referrals is also a great way to gain insight into what different laser hair removal centers have to offer.

Certification is an obvious criterion for any clinic that performs medical procedures. Each state has different certification requirements for laser hair removal centers, but there is a general standard that most adhere to. In addition to state board certification, you will want to find out what a prospective clinic's policy is on attending physicians. (Not all states require that a licensed physician be present during laser hair removal.)

Laser Hair Removal Centers and Laser Choice

Most laser hair removal centers use diode lasers in addition to any number of other laser types. Diode lasers operate at a wavelength that is perfectly tailored to hit the pigment in hair follicles. They are most effective on candidates with fair skin and dark hair.

There are other lasers-such as the Nd:YAG-that are specifically geared towards people with darker skin tones. Not all laser hair removal centers offer the same choice of laser types, so make sure to find out if the one you are considering has the laser or lasers that are best suited to your skin and hair type.
