How does laser hair removal work?

According to Dr. Abhilasha Patidar, who is top doctor for best laser hair removal in Indore, this procedure uses a laser, or a concentrated beam of light, to get rid of hair in different areas of the body. The laser works on a principal called selective photothermolysis.  It beams highly concentrated light into hair follicles. The light generates heat which destroys cells that have a lot of pigment/colour. Pigment in the follicles absorb the light. Since dark hair has a lot of pigment, it absorbs the most heat. This destroys the hair.
A hair follicle has to be in its anagen, or growth, stage for the procedure to work. Follicles are in different stages at different times, so most people need multiple laser treatments.
