Background And Objectives: In this study, we investigate the photothermal response of human hair using a pulsed laser source employed in the hair removal treatment. The purpose is to understand the dynamics behind the most common clinical practice to better define the salient features that may contribute to the efficiency of the process.
Study Design/materials And Methods: Temperature changes of hair samples (dark brown color) from a human scalp (skin type Fitpatrick II) were measured by a thermal camera following irradiation with single and multiple neodymium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) (1064 nm) and alexandrite (755 nm) laser pulses.
