6 Common Misconceptions About Laser Hair Reduction Discussed

The traditional hair removal method is a time-consuming process that can cause irritation in various circumstances. Waxing, shaving, and tweezing are helpful for temporarily removing hair, but they are not permanent solutions. 

Does Laser Hair Reduction technique help?

Laser hair reduction is the most advanced and popular treatment that offers an effective, quick, and long-term hair removal solution. This procedure can be performed on any body part that has unwanted hair. Even though this method does not completely remove unwanted hair, it does result in an 80–90% reduction, and the newly grown hair is less visible and less dense.

Despite being the most popular hair removal method, many people are not fully aware of the procedure and there are many myths that linger among them. So, to clear all the doubts and to help readers gain the right and authentic knowledge about laser hair reduction procedures. We have gathered insights from Dr. Swati Agarwal, a renowned dermatologist who has expertise in providing the best laser hair removal in Chhattarpur at her dermatology and laser clinic, Skination. 

Myth 1: Laser Hair Reduction Treatment Takes Too Long

Fact: Patients are usually advised to schedule follow-up sessions every 6 to 8 weeks. Generally, only four treatment sessions are sufficient to eradicate 90% of all undesired hair. This indicates that one can see the results in a month or two, depending on the number of sessions they require. The number of sessions one requires depends on factors such as the type of hair, density of hair, area to be treated, etc. It could also depend on a patient’s financial condition and their capacity to pay for additional treatments, if required.

Myth 2: The Cost of Laser Hair Reduction Is Just Too High 

Fact: The total cost of laser hair reduction does go up with each session. Nonetheless, the size of the treatment area also affects the cost. Wider areas, like the back and stomach, will cost more than smaller areas, like the chin or upper lips. But one must understand that laser hair removal is a one time investment because it provides results for up to a year or more. In some cases, one might require laser hair removal again. On the other hand, traditional hair removal methods require monthly expenses to remove hair from different parts of the body.

Myth 3: The Hair Grows More Frequently and Becomes Denser after Laser Hair Reduction

Fact: Laser hair reduction does not cause hair to grow thicker after the treatment sessions. In fact, each session of laser hair removal should result in a 10 to 25% reduction in hair growth. With subsequent sessions, the hair's density, thickness, and growth rate all noticeably decrease, and the hair that eventually grows back is usually much lighter and finer than before. Because of this, regions that were troublesome in the past might not be as much of an issue once hair grows back.

Myth 4: The Hair Grows Back After Childbirth

Fact: It is normal to have a few hairs grow back, even after completing a course of laser hair removal treatment prior to getting pregnant. A change in the body's hormone levels after giving birth may cause dormant follicles to begin producing hair, but this usually results in one or two undetectable hairs. 

This is because it is practically impossible to target all the hair follicles during the course of treatment. Women can opt for a few more laser hair removal sessions to get rid of them as well. However, it is ideal for women who have given birth to wait to start top-up treatments until their hormone levels are normal.

Myth 5: Laser Hair Reduction is Only Available to Women

Fact: According to a survey, men and women share similar concerns regarding hair removal. One can prevent thick, coarse, and ingrown hair with this procedure. Men can also get this treatment done, as the laser hair reduction technology targets all kinds of hair, from light to thick. Therefore, male patients also experience life-changing benefits from laser hair removal.

Myth 6: Laser Hair Removal is Painful

Fact: Each person has a unique pain threshold and experiences different sensations. As such, it is challenging to predict what each patient will go through during treatment. Some people just feel tingling, while many find the first session to be horrifying. Because the process takes place over several sessions, laser hair removal is not more painful than waxing. 

It does not cause bleeding and is safer, faster, and more efficient than waxing. People who are frightened by the treatment might get relaxed knowing that there are a few options to minimize discomfort. These include adjusting the laser's settings, applying specially formulated lotions, and using a cool-air fan (usually built into the device).

The amount of misinformation about transition that exists, even from people who are transitioning is troubling to me because there's been several times I've been told stuff that's turned out not to be true and I'd previously not pursued parts of transition as a result.

HRT will change your bones! And everything!

Voice training takes time but it works!

Your feet will likely change shape!

Enough laser hair removal will be permanent!

There's many other myths I've heard but then spoken to people who have read academic papers on chemistry and frankly the news is good! Rumours and Myth about transition are unfounded, negative, and likely designed to discourage us!

[astrolavas]

Ok ok, but now is turn for the grimwalker HCs!! Give us the creature👀

!!!!! BET

once a grimwalker is "formed" they simply turn mostly organic, just like how palismen are live animals instead of wood (when activated). so even though the ingredients are still THERE technically, they appear as just like... normal stuff, so grimwalkers are mostly biologically the species that their ortet was, almost indistinguishable (hair is hair, skin is skin, there's blood flow despite there not initially being a heart, the galdorstone is there but it functions very similarly to a heart, etc etc) and yet sometimes the original ingredients' features somehow still "show up" in unique-to-grimwalkers ways. ㅤ

i imagine grimwalkers used to be like a more popular/frequent occurence in ancient demon realm. the process of creating a grimwalker was like a sacred magic ritual, only allowed in special cases (like maybe if a witch lost a child early and wasn't able to have another one, sth of the sort) so it was still very rare even back then and would have to be approved of by most of the community. however, then the tradition died off as ingredients started becoming more scarce, and most of knowledge about it was eventually lost to time. nowadays, grimwalkers are considered to be an extinct species as well as an urban legend/myth by boiling isles habitants, like a "supposedly extinct but there's no certainty if they ever even actually existed" situation (without taking hunter and his possibly-openly-a-grimwalker-in-the-future thing into account just yet). the books we saw hunter read in labyrinth runners have some right information but also lots of misinformation in them, since they're far removed from the direct source, based on only tidbits of actual info, and have been written by witches/demons, with no grimwalkers consulted (obviously); lots of it is speculation, and lots of it is wrong. (i imagine the only actual, entirely truthful info is in those scrolls and books we saw in belos' grimwalker lab, but even that isn't fully complete; and belos wouldn't have wanted to share it with the public anyway, for obvious reasons) additionally, i feel like grimwalkers have a sort of cryptid-like reputation in the boiling isles' pop culture. there are stories made up about them. there are teens making pink-eyed grimwalker ocs on the demon realm equivalent of deviantart and making up things like "grimwalkers can shoot lasers out of their eyes" or "they can raise the dead with their thoughts" LMAO. hunter gets a headache when he discovers all that. ㅤ

grimwalkers are semi-immune to boiling water. the selkidomus scales give them a lot of immunity so boiling water is not actually lethal to them but still, being exposed to boiling rain for a long while or full-on diving into the boiling sea may hurt a bit and prolonged contact with boiling water may leave them with blisters/burns. ㅤ

when grimwalkers' skin is wet for a long time, it gets somewhat scaley ??? scales-resembling texture ?? instead of just being pruney/wrinkled. when dry, their fingertips have a sort of wood-rings-y look. ㅤ

grimwalkers' hair naturally grows incredibly fast, but especially when they spend lots of time in the sun. plant magic may also affect its growth positively. ㅤ

grimwalkers' eyes are reflective and can glow/shine in the dark. ㅤ

when it comes to human-based grimwalkers (the golden guards), sometimes their ears would turn out rounder and human-looking, sometimes they'd look pointier but still not fully witch-like. belos preferred them to be round cuz obviously he preferred "caleb" to be human-looking, but with time he started modifying some grimwalkers' naturally round ears to be pointier just so that they could blend in easier and so they'd believe that they're witches too. he'd "mold" their ears during early creation or sometimes modify/cut them after, like he did his. (hunter's ears are naturally pointy and generally look like a witch's ears but, upon closer inspection, the details of his ears differ from a normal witch's ears juuuust slightly) (ears of the grimwalker that we saw in ftf were fully round because belos was counting on this one to be the golden guard post-day of unity, seemingly brought up as human and in the human realm) ㅤ

just like stonesleepers, grimwalkers often have a slightly sensitive spot behind their ears. ㅤㅤㅤ

palismen can somewhat sense that grimwalkers are also made of palistrom wood so they naturally cling to them more (big win for mr palisman enthusiast/carver hunter owlhouse!) ㅤㅤ

again, when it comes to specifically caleb-based/the golden guard grimwalkers, i can imagine that belos' first attempts were....... FAR from perfect. since i imagine he got all the information from different incomplete ancient scrolls, there were many things he had to come up with and re-discover himself. the very first grimwalkers he made probably didn't even survive for longer than a few minutes/hours. and when they did survive, i feel like the ingredients used were much more distinguishable at first too, not fully transformed into their organic counterparts; like for example some grimwalkers had more selkidomus-like or stonesleeper-like features, or were visibly wooden in some places, etc etc. i feel like belos didn't succeed in making a fully functional, stable and human/witch-looking grimwalker until he met the collector, and then did so thanks to their help. ㅤ

grimwalkers are already "harvestable" at early infancy and that's when you're "supposed" to unbury them, but they can technically emerge at any age (they just have to stay underground and age for the amount of time). i feel like there were also times when belos tried to speed up the process and age his grimwalkers up faster so that they'd be of use to him quicker, but that would also often result in the grimwalkers being unstable; so not really a good idea. (i envision that hunter was probably one of the youngest- if not the youngest- grimwalker belos had ever made, and that's also why he had high hopes for him lasting longer than the others; because he manipulated him since early childhood, starting in his most pivotal developmental years) ㅤ

i like to believe that the reason why flapjack was able to save hunter in thanks to them was because hunter's a grimwalker. if hunter had been a normal witch or a human, i don't think flapjack could do anything to help. (something abt the thing that hunter was ashamed of and hated abt himself ending up being the exact thing that makes saving him possible... you know?) ㅤ

for specifically caleb-based grimwalkers, i imagine that since they're mostly human in biology, they might also have issues with eating some particular demon realm food. not as much as luz of course, since they're not completely human + after years of living in the demon realm and basically eating ONLY demon realm food i can imagine your stomach would get mostly used to it, acclimated and all, but it probably still could result in some problems and discomfort. ㅤ

because of their stonesleeper lungs, grimwalkers are usually pretty still and motionless sleepers. they breathe very slowly when sleeping. ㅤ

you can't make a grimwalker out of a grimwalker. you can try, but the magic simply won't work correctly.

Still thinking about her.

Like, ancient people carved these out of rocks, in great detail, because that's how enamored they were with the idea of a being who was beautiful and feminine, and had a penis. Maybe they were inspired by meeting an intersex person or trans girl in their lives. Maybe the art was an expression of what they wished they could become. Or maybe they were the fetish artists of their time, taking commissions so they could pay their bills. Whatever the reason, someone decided that this concept was of such importance that it needed to be carved into fucking statues.

I've only done light research, but Aphroditus seems to have originated as someone's high-concept fanon idea of "what if Aphrodite, the beautiful goddess of love, had a dick?"

And then a few hundred years later someone else expanded that concept into their OC Hermaphroditus, the child of Hermes and Aphrodite, who basically got named after his parents' portmanteau ship name. (And then the writer used that OC to tell a cautionary tale about being ensnared and cursed by the actions of evil women or whatever.) But also it became the origin myth for intersex bodies, as it was said that anyone who bathed in the pool where Hermaphroditus was transformed would then be similarly transformed themselves.

There's one tale of the female Aphrodite where Theseus sacrifices a goat to her, and the goat transforms from a she-goat to a he-goat.

Some Romans, when they adapted Aphrodite into Venus, seemed to conceptualize Venus as genderfluid, sometimes taking the form of Venus Barbata, or Bearded Venus. "The name Venus in itself, is masculine in its termination, and it was perceived that the goddess becomes the god and the god the goddess sometimes." [x]

So it's evident that people have been thinking about gender bending concepts, and feminine beauty in a body with a penis, for a very long time. Aphroditus dates back to at least 7th century BC. They even held festivals where people cross-dressed to honor Aphroditus. The festivals allowed "women to act the part of men, and men put on woman's clothing and play the woman." [x]

And that stuff makes me feel a little more connected to humanity and history. I don't know what I am, gender nonconforming, genderfluid, or maybe a trans girl, but in any of those labels, it's comforting to think that people in history were probably feeling the same feelings. Maybe some of their attempts at femininity looked a bit like mine, since they didn't have access to laser hair removal either. Maybe when some of them put on women's clothing, they felt a little scared of how much they liked it. Maybe some of them felt like they weren't really feminine enough to deserve to take on the role of a woman. Maybe some of them felt a little sad when the permission of the festival passed, like I felt when the permission of Halloween passed and I went back to wearing boy clothes. Maybe when they conceptualized this deity in ancient Greece, they were trying to dream of what I sometimes try to dream of: a heaven where gender is more flexible than it is here. Maybe some of them wanted to imagine that the gods had these genderfluid powers because they wished they could have such powers, like I wish I could have such powers.

Maybe there are some ancient Greek and Roman people in the afterlife who smile when they see me put on a skirt, remembering a festival 2500 years ago where they did that. And that idea warms my silly heart.

[nothorses]

Hi there! I have a quibble that I hope comes across as good faith and not anon hate: you quote statistics from the 2015 Transgender Study in a way that I think decontextualizes them. For example, trans men are more likely to be denied coverage for surgery (but not top surgery, which is considered cosmetic for trans women. Also, FFS was not included in the study and is almost never covered). Trans men face more harassment from police but trans women are more likely to be incarcerated, etc.

The point of the post (which is here) was just to debunk the myth that trans women are categorically "more oppressed" across the board. The stats I pulled were just a number of (fairly random) examples to that end, and I clarify in the text of that post, in reblogs, and in subsequent posts that the point is not to create a definitive list of The Ways Transmascs Are Most Oppressed- it's to demonstrate that the common assumption that trans women always have the highest rates of violence/discrimination in all areas is, y'know, patently not true.

All of those statistics represent only a narrow slice of a much more complicated issue.

To use your first example, "trans men are more likely to be denied coverage for surgery (but not top surgery, which is considered cosmetic for trans women. Also, FFS was not included in the study and is almost never covered"...

From the 2015 USTS Report:

"Transgender men (57%) were more likely to be denied surgery coverage than transgender women (54%) and non-binary people, including non-binary people with female on their original birth certificate (49%) and non-binary people with male on their original birth certificate (35%)" (p.95)

To my knowledge, the USTS did not actually outline surgery coverage rates for specific surgeries. But they do talk about the rates at which different people want, or have had, specific surgeries:

So, right off the bat: you can see FFS (Facial Feminization Surgery) reported in Figure 7.14. But what strikes me more about these charts in this discussion is that it really does speak to a more complicated issue on the whole.

You could absolutely say trans men (26%) have top surgery more than trans women (11%), but that would also be misleading. 97% of trans men have had or want to have chest reconstruction or reduction, compared to 51% of trans women who have had or want augmentation mammoplasty... well, yeah, it makes a bit of sense that trans men have had this kind of surgery more. They want it more.

But for kicks, let's look at the "have had" vs. "want someday" ratios, for a better picture of what those denial rates might be: 37% of trans men who wanted top surgery (97%) have actually had it, vs. 27% of trans women who wanted it (51%). We don't know that "denied coverage" is the reason all of these people have not gotten it yet, but it's probably a factor; and yes, that does indicate a 10% gap with trans men ahead.

And for kicks, let's apply that same concept to a few other procedures. To use your other example, 14% of trans women who want FFS have had it. But that's also not a super popular surgery for trans women; electrolysis/laser hair removal is the most popular, and 50% who want it have actually had it. In comparison to the most popular surgery for trans men- top surgery; 37% who want it have had it- that's a 13% gap with trans women ahead.

Granted, electrolysis is generally less invasive and more accessible (though it also requires repeated appointments), but I also couldn't tell you how often it's covered by insurance.

You might also compare bottom surgery rates: 66% of trans women want or have had vaginoplasty, vs. 27% of trans men want metoidioplasty (meta), or 22% want phalloplasty (phallo). Of trans women who want it, 18% have had it. Of trans men who want it, 7% (meta) or 15% (phallo) have actually had it. That's a gap of 3% or 11%, with trans women ahead in both cases.

You may also note that for trans women, surgical procedures are not super popular; vaginoplasty is the most sought-after surgery, and it's also third on the overall list of procedures for trans women. Trans men do not have non-surgical transition procedures listed (or generally available, afaik). Which is, imo, important context for another relevant statistic: "Transgender men (42%) were more likely to have had any kind of surgery than transgender women (28%)".

My point is, again, just to say that this stuff is complicated. I grabbed those statistics because they were a quick way to demonstrate the more general point that this is not a black-and-white issue, that trans men do not oppress trans women (and vice versa!), and that trans men are not actually More Privileged In All Areas.

And like, yeah, when you look closer at the issues those statistics reference, there are more layers- that's the point! It's a 300 page document, you could have a lot of conversations around all of these numbers and what they mean.

The fact that I didn't have all of those conversations in that post was not an attempt to hide these complexities. It was a request that we start to engage in them, especially without gearing it toward the question "who has it worse?", when the actual questions we need to be answering are "why does that happen?", and "how do we solve it?"

What I wonder, also, is- what is your point in bringing this up? The examples you brought up were lacking context, and in one case fully untrue. I want to assume good faith as well, but your ask comes off as if you're trying to argue that transmascs never actually struggle in a comparable or unique way.

Affordable Body Contouring with CoolSculpting Discounts

Introduction

In a world where beauty standards often feel unattainable, body contouring has emerged as a beacon of hope for many. With advancements in technology, particularly in non-invasive procedures like CoolSculpting, achieving that dream silhouette is now more accessible than ever. This article dives deep into the realm of Affordable Body Contouring with CoolSculpting Discounts, exploring its benefits, addressing common myths, sharing success stories, and providing valuable tips for those interested in embarking https://americanlasermedspa.com/laser-hair-removal-midland/ on this transformative journey.

Affordable Body Contouring with CoolSculpting Discounts

When it comes to body contouring options, CoolSculpting stands out due to its unique approach—using cryolipolysis to freeze and eliminate stubborn fat cells without surgery. The main allure? It’s affordable compared to traditional liposuction methods. In addition, various discounts and financing plans make this treatment even more reachable for individuals across different financial backgrounds. At American Laser Med Spa - Midland, clients can find tailored solutions that fit their budget while helping them achieve their desired results.

The Science Behind CoolSculpting Understanding Cryolipolysis

Cryolipolysis is the scientific term underlying the CoolSculpting process. But what exactly does this mean? Essentially, it involves cooling fat cells to a temperature that triggers apoptosis—a natural cell death process—without harming surrounding tissues.

How Does It Work?

During a session, applicators are placed on targeted areas of the body where excess fat resides—think love handles or back fat—and controlled cooling is applied. Patients typically feel a cold sensation initially, followed by numbness as the area becomes less sensitive.

Benefits of Choosing CoolSculpting Non-Invasive Procedure

One of the most significant advantages of CoolSculpting is that it’s non-invasive. Unlike surgical options that require incisions and lengthy recovery times, CoolSculpting allows people to return to their daily activities shortly after treatment.

Minimal Downtime

Patients can often go back to work or exercise immediately following their sessions. This makes it an ideal option for busy individuals seeking effective body contouring solutions without major lifestyle disruptions.

CoolSculpting Success Stories Real-Life Transformations

Success stories abound at American Laser Med Spa - Midland, where countless clients have achieved remarkable results through CoolSculpting. One client shared her experience: "I had always struggled with stubborn belly fat despite exercising regularly. After just two sessions of CoolSculpting, I noticed a significant difference in my waistline."

Top 5 Myths About Acne Treatment with our Best Dermatologist in Lucknow

Acne is a common yet frustrating skin condition, and the myths surrounding its treatment can often delay effective care. At The Velvet Skin Centre, Indira Nagar, Lucknow, we aim to debunk these myths and provide the best acne solutions. With the guidance of the best dermatologist in Lucknow, we offer scientifically proven treatments to help you achieve clear, healthy skin. Let’s explore the top 5 myths about acne treatment and separate fact from fiction.

Myth 1: Acne is Caused by Poor Hygiene

A common myth is that acne is a result of not keeping the skin clean enough. While cleanliness is essential, acne has much more complex causes, including genetics, hormonal imbalances, and excess oil production. In fact, over-washing or scrubbing the skin can worsen acne. The best dermatologist in Lucknow at The Velvet Skin Centre understands the multifaceted nature of acne and provides treatments that balance the skin's needs without irritation.

Myth 2: Acne Only Affects Teenagers

Although acne is often associated with adolescence, it is a condition that can affect individuals at any age. In fact, many adults suffer from acne due to factors like stress, hormonal changes, and diet. At The Velvet Skin Centre, Indira Nagar, Lucknow, we offer treatments for patients of all ages. Our team of expert dermatologists tailors acne treatments to meet the unique needs of both teens and adults, ensuring optimal results for everyone.

Myth 3: Tanning Clears Acne

Many people believe that tanning helps clear acne. While sun exposure may temporarily dry out pimples, it can also lead to long-term skin damage, pigmentation, and scarring. At The Velvet Skin Centre, we emphasize the importance of sun protection and provide treatments like chemical peels, laser therapy, and microneedling, which target acne without the harmful effects of tanning.

Myth 4: Using More Products Will Help Acne Clear Faster

More is not always better when it comes to acne treatment. Overusing products can strip the skin’s natural oils, leading to irritation and potentially more breakouts. At The Velvet Skin Centre, we offer personalized acne treatment plans that focus on gentle yet effective solutions. With the expertise of the best dermatologist in Lucknow, we create skincare regimens tailored to your skin type, ensuring the best results.

Myth 5: Acne Treatments Are Too Expensive

Many people shy away from seeking professional acne treatment due to the belief that it’s too expensive. At The Velvet Skin Centre, Indira Nagar, Lucknow, we offer a variety of affordable treatment options, ensuring everyone can access high-quality care. Whether you need simple topical treatments or advanced therapies, we work within your budget to help you achieve clear, beautiful skin.

5 Myths About At-Home Laser Hair Removal Debunked

The idea of zapping your skin with a device might sound scary, but it’s way less dramatic than it seems. Most laser hair removal devices for home use are designed to be super user-friendly and safe when used properly. Sure, you might feel a little warmth or a mild sensation, but it’s nothing extreme. Plus, these devices usually come with safety features like skin sensors, so they work well with different skin tones and types. If you’ve used things like a high frequency wand for rosacea, you already know how home-use beauty devices can be safe and effective with proper care.

You might have heard that at-home laser hair removal machines only work for specific skin tones or hair colors. While this was partly true in the early days, technology has come a long way. Modern devices are much more advanced, and some can adjust settings for different skin tones. Just make sure to read the guidelines for the specific device you’re using. If you’ve ever used a high frequency skin therapy wand, you’ll know that adapting settings for your skin type can make all the difference in achieving great results.

Here’s the thing—no device, not even professional ones, can promise permanent results in one go. Hair grows in cycles, and the laser only targets hair in the active growth phase. You’ll need multiple sessions to see long-lasting results. Think of it as a process. Over time, a permanent hair removal machine will give you smoother skin and significantly reduce regrowth. Just be patient and stick to the schedule recommended in the device’s manual.

Using a laser device at home might seem overwhelming at first, but it’s actually really straightforward. Most machines are designed with beginners in mind, and the instructions are easy to follow. If you’ve tried gadgets like a laser hair removal at home device, you’ll know that they’re built to make the process as simple as possible. From prepping your skin to choosing the right setting, it’s all about following a few easy steps. You’ll get the hang of it in no time!

Common Myths and Misconceptions About Laser Hair Removal

Laser Hair Removal has become a popular method for achieving smooth, hair-free skin. However, there are still several misconceptions about the procedure that may cause confusion or hesitation for those considering it. In this blog, we will debunk some of the most common myths about laser hair removal to give you a clearer understanding of what to expect.

1. Myth: Laser Hair Removal Is Extremely Painful

One of the most widespread myths is that laser hair removal is unbearably painful. While everyone’s pain tolerance varies, most people describe the sensation as mild discomfort, often compared to the feeling of a rubber band snapping against the skin. Modern laser technologies, like cooling mechanisms, further minimize discomfort. After multiple sessions, the sensation typically becomes even less noticeable.

2. Myth: It Works Equally Well on All Hair Colors and Skin Types

Many people believe that laser hair removal is effective for all hair and skin types. While advancements in technology have made the procedure safer for a wider range of skin tones, it is still most effective on individuals with light skin and dark hair. Lasers target the melanin in hair follicles, so individuals with blonde, gray, or very light hair may not see as significant results. Specialized lasers for darker skin tones are available, so it’s essential to consult a clinic that uses the right technology for your skin type.

3. Myth: One Session Is Enough

A common misconception is that one session of this will permanently remove all unwanted hair. In reality, hair grows in cycles, and only hairs in the active growth phase (anagen phase) are affected by the laser during each session. Most people require multiple treatments—usually between 6 to 8 sessions spaced several weeks apart—for optimal results. Afterward, occasional touch-up sessions may be needed to maintain hair-free skin.

4. Myth: Laser Hair Removal Causes Skin Damage

Some believe that this can cause lasting damage to the skin. However, when performed by a qualified professional using FDA-approved lasers, the treatment is safe. The lasers used are designed to target hair follicles without harming the surrounding skin. Minor side effects like redness or slight irritation are temporary and typically resolve within hours after the treatment.

5. Myth: It’s Too Expensive

The idea that this is prohibitively expensive is another myth. While the upfront costs may seem high compared to other hair removal methods, such as waxing or shaving, laser hair removal offers long-term savings. Once the hair is reduced or eliminated, you won’t need to spend money on razors, waxing appointments, or depilatory creams. Over time, it proves to be a cost-effective solution for hair removal.

6. Myth: Laser Hair Removal Is Only for Women

While it's true that this is popular among women, men can also benefit from the treatment. Many men opt for laser hair removal on areas like the back, chest, or face to reduce the frequency of shaving or eliminate unwanted hair altogether. The procedure is just as effective and beneficial for men as it is for women.

7. Myth: Results Are Immediate

Many people expect immediate results from this, but the truth is that hair doesn't fall out right away. It can take up to two weeks after the session for treated hairs to shed. Additionally, each session progressively reduces hair growth, with noticeable results emerging after several treatments.

8. Myth: It’s a Permanent Solution

While this significantly reduces hair growth, it’s not necessarily permanent. The treatment dramatically slows hair growth and, in many cases, removes hair completely in certain areas, but some regrowth can occur over time. However, the hair that does regrow is often finer and less dense than before.

9. Myth: Laser Hair Removal Can Cause Cancer

A prevalent myth is that laser hair removal can cause cancer, but there is no evidence to support this claim. The lasers used for hair removal only target hair follicles and do not emit radiation that penetrates deeper layers of skin or tissues. The procedure is considered safe and has been extensively studied.

10. Myth: Home Devices Are Just as Effective as Professional Treatments

While home laser devices are available, they are typically less powerful than the lasers used by professionals. As a result, they may not provide the same level of effectiveness or safety. Professional laser hair removal ensures better results with trained technicians who can adjust the treatment to your specific needs.

[Image description: Eight images. Each one has text about Grimwalkers from The Owl House in the center, with various drawings around it. Image 1: text: "Once a grimwalker is "formed" they simply turn organic via magic, just like how activated palismen are live animals instead of wood.

"Even though the ingredients used to create a grimwalker are still there technically, grimwalkers are mostly biologically the species that their ortet was, almost indistinguishable. Sometimes, however, the original ingredients' features still "show up" in unique-to-grimwalkers ways.

"Making a grimwalker identical to their ortet species is the goal but hard to achieve; the amount and severity of a grimwalker's non-ortet features often differs depending on their creator's level of magical expertise."

Drawings are of The Golden Guard mask, a bone, a log, and a blue rock or crystal. There is also a drawing of Hunter clutching his hand to his chest. On him are glowing outlines of a skeleton, lungs, and a glowing blue spot where a heart would normally be, presumably the same as the blue rock/crytal

Image 2: text: "Historically, grimwalkers used to be a much more frequent occurrence in ancient Demon Realm. The process of creating a grimwalker was like a sacred magic ritual, only allowed in special cases, so it was still very rare even back then and would have to be approved of by most of the community. However, then the tradition died off as ingredients started becoming more scarce, and most of knowledge about it was eventually lost to time.

"Nowadays, grimwalkers are considered to be an extinct species as well as an urban legend/myth by Boiling Isles habitants, a 'supposedly extinct but there's no certainty if they ever even actually existed' situation.

"(without taking Hunter into account just yet)"

The drawing is of an open book containing info about grimwalkers

Image 3: text: "The books we saw hunter read in Labyrinth Runners have some right information but also Lots of misinformation in them, since they're far removed from the direct source, based on only tidbits of actual info, and have been written by witches/demons, with no grimwalkers consulted (obviously); Lots of it is speculation, and lots of it is wrong.

"(The only actual, entirely truthful info is scrolls and books stored in Belos' grimwalker lab, but even that isn't fully complete; and Belos wouldn't have wanted to share it with the public anyway, for obvious reasons)

"Additionally, grimwalkers also have a sort of cryptid-like reputation in the Boiling Isles' pop-culture. There are stories made up about them. There are teens making pink-eyed grimwalker OCs and making up things like 'grimwalkers can shoot lasers out of their eyes' or 'they can raise the dead with their thoughts.'

"(LMAO Hunter gets a headache when he discovers all that)"

Drawings are of a stack of books and scrolls on Grimwalkers, and Hunter glaring at his handheld scroll

Image 4: text: "When grimwalkers' skin is wet for a long time, it gets a somewhat scales-resembling texture, instead of just being pruney/wrinkled. When dry, their fingertips have a sort of wood-rings-y Look.

"Witches have fangs, that emerge once they have lost their baby fangs. Grimwalkers' teeth often tend to be a combination of their ortet species' teeth and teeth resembling those of an ingredient species, like selkidomus teeth. They might be sharp, albeit differently shaped when compared to witches teeth.

"Grimwalkers' eyes are reflective and can shine in the dark."

Drawings are of some teeth, and of Hunter looking at the viewer with glowing pink eyes.

Image 5: text: "Grimwalkers' hair naturally grows incredibly fast, especially when they spend lots of time in the sun. Plant magic may also affect its growth positively.

"Grimwalkers are semi-immune to boiling water. The selkidomus scales give them a lot of protection so boiling water is not actually Lethal to them but, still, being exposed to boiling rain for a long while or full-on diving into the boiling sea may hurt a bit and prolonged contact with boiling water may leave them with blisters/burns.

"Just like stonesleepers, grimwalkers often have a slightly sensitive spot behind their ears. Also because of their stonesleeper lungs, grimwalkers are usually pretty motionless sleepers. They breathe rather slowly when asleep."

Drawings are of Hunter getting his long hair cut, and him wet and clutching a beach ball in his hands.

Image 6: text: "When it comes to human-based grimwalkers (the Golden Guards), sometimes their ears would turn out rounder and human-looking, sometimes they'd look pointier yet not fully witch-like, Belos preferred them to be round cuz he preferred 'Caleb' to be human-looking, but with time he started modifying some grimwalkers' naturally round ears to be pointier just so that they could blend in easier and so they'd believe that they're witches too. He'd 'mold' their ears during early creation or sometimes modify/cut them after, like he did his.

"(Hunter's ears are naturally pointy and generally look like a witch's ears but, upon closer inspection, the details of his ears differ from a normal witch's ears junuust slightly)"

Drawings is of Hunter's head, comparing it to that of another grimwalker and Belos, demonstrating some of the differences from the text

Image 7: text: "Palismen can somewhat sense that grimwalkers are also made of palistrom wood so they naturally cling to them more.

"(big win for mr. 'palisman enthusiast/carver' Hunter Noceda-Deamonne-Clawthorne-OwlHouse!)

"The reason why Flapjack was able to save Hunter was because Hunter's a grimwalker. If Hunter had been a normal witch or a human, Flapjack wouldn't be able to do anything to help.

"(The thing that Hunter was ashamed of and hated abt himself... ending up being the exact thing that makes saving him possible... yeah)".

Drawings are of an older Hunter colvered with palismen, and a dying flapjack on Hunter's chest

Image 8: text: "Grimwalkers are already 'harvestable' at early infancy and that's when you're 'supposed' to unbury them, for best results, but (they can technically emerge at any age they just have to stay underground and age for the amount of time).

"There were times when Belos tried to speed up the process and age his grimwalkers up faster so that they'd be of use to him quicker, but that would also often result in them being unstable; so not really a good idea. (Hunter was one of the youngest grimwalkers Belos had ever made, and that's also why he had high hopes for him lasting longer than the others; because he manipulated him since early childhood, starting in his most pivotal developmental years)

"When it comes to human-based grimwalkers, they might also have issues with eating some particular Demon Realm food. Not as much as Luz of course, since they're not completely human + after years of living in the Demon Realm and basically eating only demon realm food, your stomach would likely get mostly used to it, acclimated and all, but it probably still could result in some problems and discomfort."

Drawings are of purple tentrils coming out of the ground, Hunter crawling out of the ground, and a sandwich. End description.]
