This treatment uses targeted light energy to damage the hair follicle, reducing hair growth in the treated area.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage Treatments Overview
Manual Lymphatic Drainage are used for hair reduction treatments by using selective photothermolysis to target the melanin in the hair follicle. In photothermolysis, light energy is converted to heat, destroying the follicle without damaging the surrounding tissue.
Hair reduction treatments using Laser and IPL are entirely safe. They can be used on any part of body and are suitable for different skin types while maintain efficacy. Multiple treatments are generally required to align with the hair growth cycle, specifically the anagen phase.
