Does Laser Hair Removal Work for Asian Skin?
Laser hair removal is very effective for Asian people and individuals of other ethnicities with dark complexions. Laser hair removal systems work by targeting the melanin pigment found in hair follicles, applying concentrated heat to the area, which inhibits and delays future hair growth. Melanin is also present in skin, with higher concentrations in people with darker skin tones. Our highly-skilled practitioners will configure the laser to selectively target only the hair follicles, leaving the skin untouched, and protecting your natural pigmentation.
Understanding the Unique Characteristics of Asian Skin
Your ethnicity can greatly affect your skin and how it responds to physiological and environmental factors. Asian skin differs significantly from other skin types, being more prone to sensitivity, scarring, and hyperpigmentation. The unique characteristics of Asian skin demand a specialised approach to laser hair removal.
