This phenomenon selectively damages selective dark target matter (melanin) in the area, which causes hair growth (follicle), without heating the rest of the skin.
The target area is focused with High intensity laser light beams. These destroy the hair follicle of the hair roots, which control the re-growth of the hair. Further, these beams destroy only the target matter (melanin), without causing any pigmentation or harm to the light skin. Without hair, the skin also appears smooth and fair. Theses therapy is more benefiting to light skinned person. Laser treatment can remove only dark color thick hair, so it's useless to go for it if you have grey thin hair.
