Things To Know About Back Laser Hair Removal

Tired of having a hairy backside? Thanks to cutting-edge technology, laser hair removal can make the back silky smooth, and hair free without the need for constant upkeep!

According to Dr. Nivedita Dadu, a laser expert doctor in Delhi practicing at Dadu Medical Centre. A hairy back tends to be a more common concern of men than women, but women can also struggle with undesirable back hair. Women usually have hairy backsides if they are suffering from hormonal disorders such as Adrenal gland disorders, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, and Cushing’s Syndrome. Men often blame their genes are culprits for their hairy backs.

This is because certain genes in men can make them more sensitive to the effects of testosterone- a male sex hormone that encourages body hair growth. If men have a genetic predisposition to the hairy back, then their back may be having more present, thicker hair. There is also a possibility that both genders may be experiencing a condition called hypertrichosis- a disorder causing excessive body hair growth.

Men having unwanted back hair may be mistaken as a werewolf when in the gym or going shirtless. They may feel embarrassed when their extra or long back and neck hair peeps out through their shirt collar at work. Back hair may cause skin irritations and itching or an unpleasant body odor in hot weather or when there is sweating. Hair-free back is possible by shaving hair with razors, using depilatory creams, or waxing. But, these hair removal methods can cause the hair follicles to become infected. To achieve a perfectly hairless finish for a lifetime, it’s time to consider back laser hair removal.

What is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is one of the dermatological services to eliminate unwanted body and facial hair with the help of medical-grade lasers. A laser emits concentrated pulses of light onto the skin to destroy the targeted hair follicles and avoid hair from growing back. The light gets absorbed by the melanin pigment of the hair and as it moves down the hair shaft to reach the hair follicles it gets converted into heat which destroys the hair follicles.

Laser hair removal works on the hair strands that are in the active growth phase. It is a quick and relatively painless hair removal method that targets multiple hairs with every single pulse. Multiple laser sessions are required to capture and destroy every undesirable hair, as not all hair needs to be in the same phase of the hair growth cycle at a particular time.

Why choose laser hair removal for a hairy back?

Hair removal methods including waxing, shaving, and epilating, which may have worked in the past, are a never-ending battle with unwanted hair as these don’t get to the root cause of why hair keeps growing back after every few days or a month. However, laser hair removal is a revolutionary approach offered at Dadu Medical Centre that passes heat generated from the lasers deep into the hair follicles and permanently disrupts the hair growth phase. As a result, the hair grows back thinner and finer, and mostly they cease to regrow altogether. One can expect to see 85-90% of hair reduction at their back after laser hair removal. The hair that grows back lighter and thinner is more manageable to be removed. The changes are dramatic and satisfactory for most clients.

Who are suitable candidates for back laser hair removal?

Ideally, men or women who have dark hair and light skin can undergo laser hair removal safely and effectively at their backside. Anyone experiencing problems with folliculitis and ingrown hair can be a good candidate. The candidates must have good general health and realistic expectations from their treatment to be eligible for back laser hair removal. Their back must not have any active skin concerns or infections.

To know if one is an ideal candidate for Back Laser Hair Removal in Delhi consult with the laser expert doctors at Dadu Medical Centre.

How to prepare for back laser hair removal?

The very first step when going ahead with back laser hair removal is to book an initial consultation with a certified, licensed laser technician or a skin and hair expert. During this consultation, the candidate can learn about what the procedure entails, how many treatments are needed, and what to do before and after the treatment.

To prepare for the laser hair removal session, avoiding sun exposure and tanning is important for several weeks beforehand. Furthermore, the intake of certain medications or blood thinners as well as plucking or waxing must be avoided in a few days leading to the treatment. Trimming or Shaving of back hair is recommended a few hours before the session.

What to Expect?

A single back laser hair removal session may last for about half an hour. It is a painless procedure as the technician applies a soothing cream or gel to ensure comfort. Protective eyewear is necessary to avoid any damage to the eyes from laser light. Before using a laser device, a patch test is performed to let the candidates feel for themselves. If the back skin is found to be more sensitive the pain can be reduced by applying a numbing cream prior to the treatment.

During back laser hair removal, the technician first cleans the backside of the candidate with antibacterial soap. Next, the area is treated with lasers. Candidates usually describe their feeling as a series of stings or like a hot rubber band flicked against their skin.

Once the treatment is over, the candidate can return to a normal routine. It’s normal to experience immediate slight discomfort afterward just like a mild sunburn (red or swollen skin) which can be relieved simply with moisturizers or the use of cold compresses. Dermatologists recommend that candidates keep their distance from saunas, excessive sweating and heat, steam room, tanning beds, direct sun exposure, hot tubs, and strenuous physical activities while their sensitive skin recovers.

How many laser sessions are required to get rid of back hair?

The number of laser sittings that one needs depends on how much hair is there to be removed and what area of the body is to be treated. For the backside, one can expect around 6-8 laser sessions typically spaced every 6 weeks to visualize the best results. To get lifetime results, one may need to undergo 1 or 2 touch-up sessions annually or after every 2 years.

Is back laser hair removal worth it?

Back laser hair removal is an expensive and inconvenient solution. That’s because one may need to buy a package of 6-8 laser sessions from the clinic which is a lot of money. Moreover, one may have to travel to a clinic 6-8 times throughout 8-12 months which can be a pain. But in the end, one receives desirable results without hassles and major side effects and with less time and money investment in the long run. Therefore, it’s really worth paying for its price and is one of the best investments that an individual can make in his/her grooming.
