Laser Hair Removal Side Effects

While the procedure involved in the laser treatment is usually risk free, there might be some side effects of laser hair removal to consider:
1. The use of a laser to remove unwanted hair involves a lot of heat to burn the hair. This can lead to skin burns in some users. The laser hair removal burns occurs more frequently on patients with darker skin, as skin with darker pigments absorb the laser more readily. While in most instances the burns are mild, there have been a number of cases where severe burns have been reported.
2. Laser may cause hyper pigmentation and hypo pigmentation.
3. It might also lead to eye injuries, so it is important to protect your eyes during the process of laser treatment.
4. Itching is a normal side effect of laser hair removal during and after the treatment.
5. The skin turns red for a few days following the treatment and there is likely to be swelling around the follicle after the treatment.
6. Pain, tingling and numbness around the treated area by the laser are probably the most common side effects that can be considered normal.
7. Laser treatment can lead to crusting and formation of scab around the area treated. A mild bruising may also occur on sensitive skin. These side effects appear within the first few days of the treatment and disappears shortly afterwards
8. A very rare side effect of laser treatment is purple colouring of the skin on tanned areas.
9. Another rare but significant side effect of laser hair removal is infection. It is important to keep the area clean after the procedure or you could end up getting an infection after the treatment.

EPA and the regulation of greenhouse gasses

This week, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy joined private and public sector leaders for a second annual White House roundtable discussion about the progress made and new steps taken to curb emissions of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), potent greenhouse gases used in refrigeration and air conditioning. Administrator McCarthy announced several new actions the agency will take to help support a smooth transition to climate-friendly alternatives to HFCs. "EPA is working closely with industry leaders to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, transition to climate-friendly refrigerants, and deploy advanced refrigeration technologies,” said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. “The powerful combination of EPA’s regulatory actions and innovations emerging from the private sector have put our country on track to significantly cut HFC use and deliver on the goals of the President’s Climate Action Plan.” Among the actions announced today, EPA proposed a rule that would improve t...

iPad Pro Review

The iPad Pro is, at first glance, completely crazy. A giant iPad with all the limitations of iOS, coupled with added bulk that makes it harder to tote, and a price tag that starts at Rs. 70,000 , all make it a hard sell. That's only the starting price though, and you're going to end up paying a lot more for this tablet. Realistically, you should get the 128GB model, which costs Rs. 79,900, and also the Apple Smart Keyboard , which will set you back by Rs. 14,900. Artists, designers, and others might also need to buy the Apple Pencil , priced at Rs. 8,600 - which means a final price tag between Rs. 94,800 and Rs. 1,03,400. At that price, you can't really compare it to the iPad Air 2 , the last 10-inch model to be released, with an MRP of Rs. 49,900 for the 128GB variant.
