Laser Hair Removal For Women With Dark Complections:
At Look Young Atlanta, we work hard to debunk the myth that laser hair removal and other laser based therapies don’t work for African American women and other patients with darker toned skin. How? CoolGlide laser therapies. Where other outlets “stay the course”, Look Young Atlanta is constantly looking for new and innovative ways to offer top of the line care to anyone, regardless their skin, hair, or body condition. Sure other companies will tell you they care about their customers, but are they using CoolGlide? Didn’t think so.
What Women Need To Know:
The laser hair removal/dark skin tone combination and the myths that surround it can best be summed up as a Catch 22 – lasers are effective due to the ability of skin to absorb light. When skin is dark in tone (usually starting with an olive complexion and darker), the high amounts of melanin tend to absorb the light at a higher rate – more so than the hair that is supposed to be targeted during a laser removal program, for example. As a result, patients with darker complexions run a high risk of burning, blistering, or discoloration on the skin, not to mention lack of sufficient results.
Why We Can Help You:
The reason why our CoolGlide laser therapies are so successful on women with darker skin tones is because of CoolGlide’s long-wavelength abilities. Most lasers, even CoolGlide when dealing with lighter skin toned individuals, function best at short-wavelength settings — lasers that send light pulses just a few millimeters below the skins surface. Those settings work on lighter skinned individuals because, as mentioned above, they have very little pigmentation on their skin surface to “distract”, so to speak, the lasers pulses – a little bit goes a long way, so to speak. With darker skin toned women, wavelengths need to penetrate the skin deeper, and more efficiently – wavelengths that can penetrate up to 7 mm below the upper most layers of your skin.
The CoolGlide Laser Was Made With You In Mind:
Fortunately for you, CoolGlide has you covered. A national medical review of CoolGlide had this to say on the topic of long-wavelength capabilities: “ [CoolGlide lasers] are more than sufficient to reach the base of the bulb… expected to produce sufficient follicular injury with less epidermal damage in patients…”. Total destruction of the follicle, with minimal, if any, damage to your skin. What more do you want out of your laser therapy treatment?
