Which method is best for hair removal?
Thanks to modern technology there is a wide selection of methods for permanent hair removal. Laser and intense pulsed light (IPL) are offered in many clinics and practices. Hair removal is already possible for almost all body areas, as well as for light hair or tanned skin. If you want to know the details, feel free to take a look at our partner site Laserenthaarung.at — you'll find lots of up-to-date information and reports there.
What is the procedure for permanent hair removal
In laser or IPL hair removal the hair follicle is destroyed by highly energetic light. The pulse is very short so as not to damage the surrounding skin tissue. Modern laser devices also feature a cooling system that protects the skin even more.
On average, one can say that 4 to 7 sessions at multi-week intervals are required for complete hair removal.
In rare cases a follow-up treatment is necessary after 1 to 2 years if a few hair follicles have newly formed.
It is important to undergo a dermatological preliminary examination before laser hair removal regarding skin type, light sensitivity, medication intake, etc. This is usually carried out at the clinic/practice by a dermatologist and includes a questionnaire.
Does permanent hair removal cause pain?
Depending on the sensitivity of the body area it hurts more or less. The first treatment is certainly the most painful. It is comparable to plucking out the hairs.
On very sensitive areas, such as the bikini zone, outer labia, etc., the treatment can be made less painful with an anesthetic cream. If you tend to ingrown hairs, permanent laser hair removal can help counteract that.
