Fifth, laser hair removal method
Location: beauty salon or hospital.
Suitable for: any part of the whole body.
Advantages: no pain, the light wave of laser only destroys the cells at the root of hair follicle, which makes the hair lose its regeneration ability and has no damage to the surrounding skin.
Disadvantages: it is expensive, and it needs to be depilated several times. When the interval is1~ 2 months, there will be fine hairs that have not been removed. At this time, you can do it for the second time.
The above are several commonly used hair removal methods, among which shaving, wax removal and chemical hair removal are all temporary hair removal methods, which can only last1-2 months. Electroacupuncture and light depilation can be regarded as permanent depilation, because these two depilation methods can make the protein of dermal papilla coagulate and denature under the action of current or laser beam, and lose its biological activity, so as to achieve complete depilation. Why can't this permanent hair removal be successful once? Mainly because the hair can avoid being swept by electro-acupuncture or laser when it falls off.
Finally, give a suggestion to the majority of hair removal patients:
Unless the hair is really too thick, it is better not to shed it. Although there is no risk in all kinds of hair removal techniques in theory, it is related to the skill of each operator, the understanding of skin structure and the operating environment, and whether the operation process is clean and sterile, which can affect the effect after hair removal. Clinically, it has also happened that some traveling doctors did not understand human anatomy, and when using electroacupuncture to remove hair, they penetrated into the skin too deeply and the current intensity was too high, which caused the tissues around the hair roots to be burned and left scars on the skin surface. Therefore, when removing hair, we must carefully choose the method of hair removal and the doctor who performs it. After all, hair removal is only the demand of fashion, not the requirement of human body, and there is no need to damage our body in pursuit of fashion.
