A focused light beam (laser) is used in the medical treatment of laser hair removal to remove unwanted hair. The pigment (melanin) in the hair absorbs the laser light that is emitted during laser hair removal. The light energy is transformed into heat, which harms the skin's hair-producing follicles, which are tube-shaped sacs. Future hair development is inhibited or delayed by this injury. Even while laser hair removal efficiently stops hair growth for extended periods of time, it typically doesn't remove hair permanently. For initial hair removal, several laser treatments are required, and follow-up treatments may be necessary. Although it can be used successfully on anyone, laser hair removal is most effective on persons with light skin and black hair.
