There is a difference between dermatologist approved laser treatments for the removal of unwanted hair, and laser hair removal systems for home use. The former is a permanent hair removal system; while the latter is a temporary hair reduction system. Basically, it means that the home system will not guarantee permanent unwanted hair eradication. However, if you compare price and convenience, many people would certainly go for the home system instead. The home system is particularly great for people who do want some unwanted hairs removed but are either hesitant to approach a professional about the problem, or would rather not deal with the hefty price tag.

For one thing, most laser treatments from dermatologists’ clinics would cost you an easy $2,000 and up – and that is still not inclusive of all miscellaneous expenses like doctor’s fees and consultation fees, tax, etc. Home laser treatment systems on the other hand, can range anywhere from $450 to $500 only – and the device for the system can be reused over and over. It can also be shared by different people, so treatment is not limited to one person alone. Also, when it comes to convenience, the home system is easier to use. Anyone can use them, and on any part of the body at any convenient time. Unlike the clinic based systems though, wherein only certified dermatologists are allowed to perform such treatments, only after you have set an appointment, and only after the recommended space of time between treatments.

So what exactly is the laser hair removal home system?

This is a hand-held device that uses an intense beam of light to paralyze the papilla of the hair matrix for a few weeks to a few months at a time. The papilla is the one responsible for hair growth. Just like clinic based laser treatments, this device can be used on any part of the body including the sensitive areas like the genitals and the face. This electrical device is almost similar in appearance to an ordinary phone complete with a receiver cradle and a touch pad. The touch pad is there so that the person using the device can set or limit the level of the light’s wavelength, depending on his or her skin type and the color of the hair being removed.

As a rule, this device is not prescribed to people with dark complexions since results are hardly noticeable. Also white and grey hairs are also not eradicated by this device. However, for people with pale complexions, up to olive and light brown, the device can work wonderfully. Also the darker the hair, the better chances it has of being removed. There are various settings available on the device, so that the person using it can adjust it easily to skin color and type of hair.

Depending also on the manufacturer of the said devices, some can have powerful machines that can cover a large patch of skin at one go; while others would entail the coverage of only a small patch of skin to remain effective. Nonetheless, it is imperative that the person using the device should read and go through the entire instruction manual.
