Extra vegetation on the body worried beauties already from ancient times. For centuries people have been inventing new, more sophisticated methods of hair removal, some of which we use so far - wax, sugar, resin, etc. All this gives women huge inconveniences - pain, skin irritation, etc.
The method of laser hair removal, which was first tested in America in 1981, significantly eased the suffering of women in the struggle for beauty. Laser hair removal helps to get rid of unwanted hair quickly and painlessly on any part of the body. Even sensitive areas of the skin, such as the underarm zone, bikini, and even the face can be epilated with a modern laser.
The procedure of epilation takes place in specialized salons under the supervision of a professional master. The laser beam immediately heats the hair bulb, which leads to its destruction. The germ cells with new hairs are also destroyed. Hair falls out and does not grow any more.
The effectiveness after laser hair removal is very high. Hairs fall out during the procedure, and the result persists for several months. If you want to get rid of hair permanently, you need to conduct a course of laser hair removal from 5-6 procedures with a break of 1-2 months.
The advantages of laser hair removal are obvious: the laser does not leave traces and scars on the skin, does not cause allergies, the procedure is practically painless, so there is no need for using painkillers. The flash is instantaneous, in a split second, so that the patient does not have time to feel the pain. The beam only affects the cells with the pigment, so the skin around the bulb does not affect. However, there are disadvantages: a high price for one session.
Unfortunately, only women with dark hair can afford laser hair removal. The laser beam is not effective when exposed to gray, light and red hair.
There are 6 basic skin phototypes. A specialist in the salon should determine your phototype and give advice on the effectiveness of laser hair removal for your skin type. The darker your skin, the worse the result.
Laser devices have different technical features. Depending on the client's skin phototype, hair structure and treated area, the cosmetologist selects the desired laser device (with crystals of ruby, alexandrite, garnet, etc.) so that the depth and intensity of the beam's exposure correspond to the individual skin features.
To date, the procedure for laser hair removal has become possible at home. With the advent of portable home laser epilators on the market, every woman has the opportunity to arrange a beauty salon at home. True, the cost of the device "bites."
A great advantage of laser hair removal is that it allows you to treat such a sensitive and delicate body area as the bikini zone. Smooth skin in this area is not only fashionable and aesthetically pleasing, but also the main part of woman's hygiene.
For laser epilation of the zone of deep bikini, a particularly delicate type of ray is used. In order for the procedure to pass safely, the salon doctor must determine the type of your skin and hair to select the desired strength of the effect.
Laser hair removal bikini is not recommended for pregnancy, fungal infections, skin damage, and also for oncology.
To prepare for a laser hair removal bikini, trim the pubic hair up to 5 mm. Before epilation do not light up and take a hot bath.
To ensure that the process has passed absolutely painlessly, a cooling cream is applied to the sensitive area of the skin. After epilation of the bikini, the skin is treated with an antiseptic wound-healing agent.
After the procedure, laser hair removal is not recommended to sunbathe for a month.
Before deciding on laser hair removal, it is worth familiar with the contraindications. The use of a laser is undesirable in pregnancy, oncological diseases, and skin lesions. It is also desirable to abstain from the laser to adolescents under 17.
The consequences of laser hair removal may be as follows: redness of the skin is possible, which lasts for several days. The harm of laser hair removal is minimal - the beam acts only superficially, without affecting the work of internal organs.
