Smooth skin without extra hairs - this is what almost every woman dreams of. Modern cosmetology offers the fair sex several methods of hair removal. With their help, you can get rid of unwanted vegetation forever on any part of the body.
The following types of hair removal are most popular:
1. Photoepilation. This method consists in using a light beam, which is converted into thermal energy and affects the hair follicles, destroying them.
This method is universal, because it can be used to remove hairs of any color. Also, photoepilation is well suited for use on any part of the body, including the bikini area, face and armpits.
The procedure is safe and painless. If necessary, a cooling gel is applied to sensitive areas, which removes all discomfort. The duration of one treatment is 5-30 minutes.
2. An effective and efficient way is laser hair removal. Types of rays used during the procedure: ruby (now practically not used), neodymium (very painful), diode (moremodern and efficient) and alexandrite (very popular and in demand lately).
The laser acts on the follicles, and as a result, the pigment of the hair follicle is destroyed, and hair growth stops.
This method will always have smooth skin. However, the laser only affects the follicle in the active growth phase, so the procedure will have to be repeated 3-4 times to completely remove vegetation on the body or face.
Types of laser hair removal:
- targeted - used when removing single hairs (eyebrows, chin, upper lip, nipple halo, toes);
- voluminous - allows you to work on large areas of the skin (legs, armpits, bikini area and arms).
This method is suitable for owners of dark hair, since the laser beam does not see light hair, and in this case you should not expect a positive result.
3. Electrolysis is an effective and time-tested way to get rid of unwanted vegetation. Like other types of hair removal, this method will help you forget about unwanted hairs forever.
The procedure is as follows: a special needle is inserted into the bulb, which is destroyed under the influence of current. Electrolysis is mainly designed for single hairs, since this process is very long. For example, a complete foot treatment can take over 50 hours.
A significant advantage of this procedure is the ability to affect the hairs of any color. To achieve perfectly smooth skin, you will need to visit a beautician 5-10 times.
4. Elos epilation is the safest method. With it, you can painlessly remove unwanted hair of any color and type. This method includes all the benefits that other types of hair removal contain.
During the procedure, the hair follicle is affected by two types of energy (light pulse and current). They destroy the follicles without leaving irritation and burns on the skin.
It is worth noting that all types of hair removal have the following contraindications:
- the presence of malignant skin lesions;
- diabetes mellitus;
- any chronic skin disease;
- varicose veins (in the place where the procedure will take place);
- herpes and other infectious diseases;
- hypertension and coronary heart disease;
- in the presence of mental illness and pregnancy, the procedure can be performed only with the permission of the doctor.
To correctly choose which method is more suitable, you need to contact a beautician for advice.
