Laser Hair Removal is Growing in Popularity
Laser hair removal is growing consistently and significantly in the United States as a means for shedding unwanted hair efficiently. Some sources point to nearly 3 million people nationwide using laser hair removal in 2017 alone, which is over a 20% increase since 2010!
Laser hair removal seems to be growing in popularity for American men and women due to convenience, time and cost savings.
Convenience and time savings
Face it. Other means of removing unwanted hair can be tedious – and eternally repetitive. Shaving and waxing is never “done”. Some people even need to shave more than once a day!
Because of the growth cycle of hair, laser hair removal can entail up to eight treatments. Even with the number of treatments, it’s a process that can have you parting with your razor or wax within a few months. When you consider how all that time adds up, you have at least one very strong reason to choose laser hair removal.
Cost management
While personal care routines can shift with the endorsement of the celebrity du jour, shaving as been a steady and growing trend for women for about a century. Some estimates have women in the U.S. spending over $1 billion annually on razors. At the individual level, women are likely to spend over $10,000 and as much as $23,000 over the course of their lifetimes on hair removal. In comparison, the cost of laser hair removal is extremely economical. A strong financial reason exists for electing laser hair removal.
Continuous enhancement in technology
When initially introduced, laser hair removal was not very easy. As described in Skin Inc., “The first generation of laser hair removal technology focused mainly on heating up the hair follicle, and machines were not accompanied by pain-reducing features.”
However, today’s lasers including our Cynosure’s Elite+ Laser System are extremely advanced. The Cynosure Elite+ offers two optimal wavelengths in one system. This allows the ability to switch between wavelengths during a single procedure and select the most appropriate laser for any given hair or skin type. Best of all, though, is that the latest laser technology minimizes pain during treatment.
Add to all this the self-confidence that comes with the freedom from excessive and unsightly facial, back, chest, leg, underarm, and arm hair, and it’s easy to see why so many people are turning to laser hair removal.
These are just a few of many reasons that both women and men increasingly are choosing laser hair removal. One of the best reasons, however, is YOU! When you’re self-conscious about unwanted hair or simply tired of your current hair removal routine, it can be the perfect choice for you as well.
