Ingrown hair: What is it and why does it happen? 

Ingrown hair is a common problem, especially among people with curly hair. They can be painful and unsightly, and can sometimes lead to infection. The hairs that go back inside the skin by curling back are called ingrown hairs. Some of the causes include not shaving properly, waxing, plucking of hair, clogged oil hair follicles, sweat or dirt. A lot of times, ingrown hairs can also lead to irritation or inflammation of the skin eventually causing pimples or cysts. In some cases, ingrown hairs can lead to scarring as well.

Laser hair removal: How does it work?

Laser hair removal is a process that uses laser to remove unwanted hair. Laser treatment targets the hair follicle melanin. The laser light is absorbed by the melanin and converted into heat. This heat destroys the hair follicle, preventing new hair from growing.
