Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses concentrated beams of light (lasers) to remove unwanted hair from various parts of the body. The laser emits a specific wavelength of light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair follicles. This heat damages the follicles, inhibiting or delaying future hair growth.
