ND YAG Laser Hair Reduction

Nd: YAG Laser Hair Reduction

Who is it for?

Most of the population of India is of a darker tone or some shade of brown. So, when it comes to laser hair reduction the common belief is it is only suitable for those with light skin tone & dark coloured hair.

Well, it is partially true because with latest laser techniques like the Nd:YAG lasers are effective even for the darker skin tones.

The long-pulsed ND: YAG laser is the platinum standard for Asians and darker skin tones in general. This makes this procedure in huge demand in India.

In the late 1980s, when the Laser Hair Removal procedure came to light, it began to be used in many countries. Soon after the widespread use of this technology, the world of dermatology started acknowledging the merits of these treatments, such as long-lasting results.

But by 2000-2002, as this became a common practise in many dermatology clinics all over the world, many customers came across the problem of pigmentation or white spots at the site of treatment, mainly in the darker skin types of customers.

The long-pulsed Nd: YAG is the safest laser for hair removal on darker skin types. The wavelength of the Nd: YAG at 1064 nanometers is at the end of the absorption spectrum of melanin.

The long-pulsed Nd: YAG is appropriate to remove hair for more than 12 months effectively, though 4-5 sessions are essential for these results. The technique is safe and effective for darker skin or even tanned skin.

At Dadu Medical Centre, we provide the most affordable cost of Laser Hair Removal Treatment in Delhi yet a premium experience as the entire procedure is done by the best professionals with years of experience in the field.

What is it?
The Nd: YAG operates at 1064 nanometers. Varying from the other laser treatment options, it has a much longer wavelength that has lower absorption of melanin, hence being very safe and potent for use on darker skin types. Various spot sizes (hand-pieces can be used) depending on the areas being targeting. The Nd: YAG penetrates deeper into the skin at 5mm.

Important things to know about Nd:YAG Laser Hair Reduction in Delhi

  • A small spot size that can be used for sensitive areas on the face and an 18mm spot size are available for the body, which ensures a quick but very effective treatment.

  • No conductor gel is required for Nd: YAG laser treatments. The area is cleaned and dried, then the laser targets the hair follicle whilst the skin is protected with the aid of a refrigerated air-cooling device due to its closest match to the thermal relaxation period of the targeted hair follicle.

  • At the same time, short-pulse red and infrared laser systems are likely to kill hair follicles permanently with equal fluences, though at the expense of the epidermis. As a result, lasers such as the Nd: YAG system use longer pulse durations (200 milliseconds), allowing for the safe administration of greater fluences to patients with darker skin tones, successfully heating the inner and outer root sheaths and the germinative Nd zone without disturbing epidermal melanosomes (which typically respond to short [1-millisecond] pulses). Thus, we may induce selective bulb and stem cell damage with pulse durations far longer than follicle relaxation times (10–100 milliseconds).

What are the advantages?

  • Safe and potent utilisation of the long-pulsed 1064-nm Nd: YAG laser for long-term epilation in darkly pigmented patients.

  • Specifically, areas characterised by thinner skin (e.g. armpits) are more responsive to laser treatment than those with thicker skin (e.g., chin and legs), signifying that skin thickness rather than hair growth cycle affects clinical outcomes.

  • With thick skin, it may become difficult to achieve adequate penetration of energy deep into the follicle, which is why the Nd: YAG laser is so effective with patients having thick skin because of the high penetration provided by the long-pulsed 1064 nm wavelength used in it.
