Laser hair bleaching is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that uses a Q-Switched Nd laser to target melanin in fine, dark hair, making the hair appear lighter and less noticeable. It is particularly suitable for fine facial hair where traditional laser hair removal may not be appropriate.
Laser hair bleaching is a procedure in which unwanted fine hair on the body or face that cannot be removed using lasers is bleached to make them less evident.
This is a non-permanent solution that bleaches the finest hair without affecting the surrounding tissues. Q-Switch Nd: YAG laser is commonly used to bleach hair. This procedure uses light of different wavelengths to target colour pigments (like melanin) in hair follicles, making them lighter to the extent that they are almost invisible.
Laser hair bleaching can be performed every 4 to 6 weeks or when needed. Ask your dermatologist about how often you will need bleaching sessions.
