If you are uncomfortable with light-colored but dense hair on your face, the solution is not necessarily to remove the hair or destroy it from the root.

In this article, we will discuss in detail how the hair bleaching method is applied, who it is suitable for and why the Nd:YAG laser system is preferred for this process.

What is Hair Bleaching?
Hair bleaching is a process that targets the pigments (melanin) in the structure of the hair, lightens their color and makes them less visible on the skin surface. This application does not eliminate the hair, but thins them to an unnoticeable level and makes them compatible with the skin. Thus, a smooth and bright appearance is achieved especially in the face area.

Why Nd:YAG Laser?
Nd:YAG laser can reach deeper layers of the skin with its 1064 nm wavelength and can cause different effects on the hair structure compared to more superficial lasers. This feature targets dark hair when used for epilation purposes; while it is ideal for reducing the visibility of light-colored and thin hair when used for bleaching purposes.

How is it applied?

During this time, the hair color is lightened, they become light-reflecting and almost invisible on the skin. The procedure takes a short time (approximately 10-15 minutes) and then you can return to your social life immediately.

How Long Does Its Effect Last?
The hair bleaching process is not permanent. It usually takes 3-6 weeks for the hair to become less noticeable. After this period, the hair begins to return to its original state. It can be repeated at regular intervals as needed.
