Talk to a credentialed <strong>Dermatologist in Delhi<\/strong> and he will definitely tell you that feeding on the wrong notions is one of the greatest mistakes that patients can end up committing. <\/p>\n<p>So, even before you step foot inside a clinic to initiate discussions about <strong>laser hair removal<\/strong> treatment with a qualified <a href=\"http:\/\/www.drsandeshgupta.com\/best-dermatologist-in-east-delhi-skin-specialist-in-east-delhi-skin-doctor-in-east-delhi-dermatologist-centre-in-east-delhi-skin-centre-east-delhi.html\" title=\"Dermatologist in Delhi\">Dermatologist in Delhi<\/a>, make sure you are learning about the common myths about this treatment and steering clear of the same as well. So, let us explore. <\/p>\n<h3>#Myth 1: Laser Hair Removal is quite painful<\/h3>\n<p>On the contrary, the modern laser treatment is associated with minimal discomfort. Yes, the prevalent notion that laser treatment is painful can be attributed to earlier times when the treatment indeed was painful. Flashlamps that were earlier used for laser tretament were not even proper lasers \u2013 technically. The treatment as unpredictable as it was earlier did result in some skin damage. And, skin damage is definitely painful. The modern treatment methods, however, is devoid of any such pain. What more? Even if you do end up experiencing some kind of pain or the other, there are numbing creams to do away with the same. <\/p>\n<h3>#Myth 2: You cannot really go on to resort to this treatment if you\u2019re black <\/h3>\n<p>This major misconception is perhaps one of the major reasons why black people have shied away from laser hair removal. Ask the best <strong>Dermatologist in Delhi<\/strong> and he will tell you that there is actually no skin tone on which laser will not work. The fact is \u2013 there are different machines for different types of skin tones \u2013 as a result of which, people of varied skin tones can actually expect to explore the merits of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.drsandeshgupta.com\/laser-hair-removal-east-delhi-laser-hair-reduction-treatment-hair-treatment-hair-removal-doctor-east-delhi.html\" title=\"laser hair removal\"> laser hair removal<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>In fact, the darker your skin tone, the better suited it is to laser treatment. The contrast between your skin tone and hair color makes the whole thing easier- i.e. it promises better results. <\/p>\n<h3>#Myth 3: Things get better when you\u2019re close-shaven<\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.drsandeshgupta.com\/\" title=\"best dermatologists in Delhi\">best dermatologists in Delhi<\/a> say that their patients prefer shaving areas that will be exposed to the laser treatment. However it\u2019s not necessary for every area in question. For instance, an aesthetician might as well shave sensitive areas like the bikini line. However, the downside of having a specialist shave you in the room is that he will be offering you a dry shave. <\/p>\n<h3>#Myth 4: The effects of laser treatment will last forever<\/h3>\n<p>There are some people who believe in the permanence of this treatment. However, please be informed that laser <strong>hair removal treatment<\/strong> is no permanent solution to hair growth. Only electrolysis is permanent. With regular laser treatment, the rate of hair growth might as well be decreased but let us tell you that the hair follicles are not destroyed forever. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Laser hair removal remains a very popular method employed to remove hair today.
