Excessive hair growth is a source of distress for many people due to cultural and aesthetic reasons. Nowadays, we can finally get rid of unwanted hair permanently. A long time passed from the concept of using laser light in medicine to its practical implementation.
The first successful laser hair removal experiments were conducted in 1979, but it was not until 1995 that laser hair removal began to be used in patient care.
Laser hair removal is a modern and the most effective method for permanent removal of unwanted hair. Several depilation systems based on different technologies are available on the market, and their effectiveness varies significantly. Diode lasers are the most recommended for permanent hair removal, operating on the principle of selective photothermolysis.
