Today, laser therapy is used for treating several dermatological conditions from surplus hair growth, blood vessels and tattoos. Sadly, several patients think of lasers as nearly magic, however, there are limitations to what they can achieve, particularly if they have a brown skin. Laser stands for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation, which states that light is amplified using a gas, liquid or solid medium that helps in stimulating the emission of radiation. There is a component of the skin known as the chromosphere to which the intensified laser light is targeted. Chromophores might be melanin, hemoglobin, water or even tattoo ink. Light is divided into various wavelengths and particular wavelengths target certain chromophores. When a particular wavelength of light is absorbed by the chromophere, a reaction occurs that generates heat and then destroys the chromophere.

Laser treatment for the skin has introduced new, greatly efficient ways of enhancing the complexion with little distress. Scars, wrinkles, fine lines, age spots and brown spots all can be effectively treated with this procedure. The recovery from this treatment differs depending on the option you select. The results are slow but can be noticed over a period of time.

Cost for Laser Hair Removal

The average cost of laser hair removal is INR 15,000 per session, however, it varies greatly, depending on the factors that include:

  • Size of the area being treated and the time required for treatment
  • Number of treatments needed
  • Whether a doctor or anyone else is performing the procedure
  • The part of the country where you are getting the procedure done

You can also request for a consultation to get a clear idea for the cost.

Recovery and Risk

The treated area of your skin will feel as if it's sunburned for a couple of days. You can apply moisturizers and cool compress. If your face was treated, you can wear makeup to the next day unless your skin is blistering. Over the next month, the hair that you treated will fall out. It's advised to wear sunscreen for the following month to help prevent temporary changes in the color of the skin that's treated. Blisters are seldom, but are more likely to occur in individuals with darker complexions. Redness, swelling and scarring are some other potential side effects.
