Electrolysis

If you are looking for a permanent solution to an unwanted hair problem, Electrolysis may be just what you need. While it is one of many forms of hair removal, it is the only permanent method. Other forms of hair removal, including Laser Hair Removal, are faster and easier, but only Electrolysis can guarantee permanent hair removal.

Hair removal by electrolysis is accomplished by using a tool called an ‘Epilator’. The Epilator treats each individual hair by inserting a tiny surgical probe into the hair follicle and directing an impulse of energy down to the root of the hair. The energy impulse causes localized damage to the area surrounding the hair. If inserted correctly the probe will not puncture the skin, it will slide directly into the follicle. This is a very slow and exact process, but the time and care taken ensures permanent results.

Electrolysis cannot be completed in one treatment, it is a weakening process. Each treatment causes the hairs directly treated, to die, but the energy impulse stimulates new hair growth directly around the area previously damaged. The new hair grows finer and thinner, so it is less noticeable. Each additional treatment will treat these new hairs until hair growth stops completely.

Depending on the area seeking removal of unwanted hair, treatments can take up to four years to successfully complete. While this time span is longer than any other hair removal treatment, the results are permanent. With a series of regular treatments, unwanted hair will become a permanent reality.

Waxing

Not completely comfortable enduring expensive and painful procedures for hair removal? Waxing could be the right answer for you. Waxing is one of the most effective methods for temporarily removing hair in both small and large areas. Hair can be removed quickly and with minimal discomfort.

The waxing method is a very simple technique that has been around for thousands of years. Hot wax is applied to the area where the unwanted hair resides and then a strip of paper or cloth is pressed on top of the wax. The wax cools off and the strip is quickly pulled away from the skin, taking the hair with it.

There are generally two types of waxing, warm waxing and cold waxing. Warm waxing is usually performed at salons or spas whereas cold waxing is usually performed at home with wax bought at a drug store. Warm waxing is more effective than cold waxing, because maximum hair removal is more likely achieved when someone else is doing the removing.

Waxing is more beneficial to you than simply shaving because it is a method that allows hair to be removed from below the surface of the skin. When hair is removed from below the skins surface, it takes longer for the hair to grow back. Also, if hair is repeatedly removed from the same area over a period of time, the quantity of hair re-growth will be permanently reduced.

Hair can be waxed from almost any area of the body including eyebrows, mustache, legs and bikini line. It is a great solution for temporary hair removal and it works well at diminishing the overall re-growth of hair.
