The temperature is gradually rising, and many beauty lovers are preparing to implement their “hair removal plan” for the sake of beauty.
The hair cycle is generally divided into growth phase (2 to 7 years), regression phase (2 to 4 weeks) and resting phase (about 3 months). After the telogen period, the dead hair follicle falls off and another hair follicle is born, starting a new growth cycle.
Common hair removal methods are divided into two categories, temporary hair removal and permanent hair removal.
temporary hair removal
Temporary hair removal uses chemical agents or physical methods to temporarily remove hair, but new hair will grow back soon. Physical techniques include scraping, plucking, and waxing. Chemical depilatory agents include depilatory liquids, depilatory creams, depilatory creams, etc., which contain chemical components that can dissolve hair and dissolve the hair shaft to achieve the purpose of hair removal. They are mostly used for hair removal. The fine fluff can make new hair thinner and lighter with regular use. It is also easy to use and can be used at home. Chemical hair removers are very irritating to the skin, so they cannot be attached to the skin for a long time. After use, they must be washed with warm water and then applied with nutritional cream. Note, not suitable for use on allergic skin.
permanent hair removal
Permanent hair removal uses a hair removal laser to generate an ultra-high frequency oscillation signal to form an electrostatic field, which acts on the hair, destroys the hair follicles, causes the hair to fall off, and no longer grows new hair, achieving the effect of permanent hair removal. At present, laser or intense light hair removal is favored by more and more beauty lovers because of its good effect and small side effects. But there are also some people who have certain misunderstandings about it.
Misunderstanding 1: This “eternal” is not that “eternal”
The current laser or intense light therapy devices have the function of “permanent” hair removal, so many people misunderstand that after treatment, hair will not grow for life. In fact, this “permanence” is not permanent in the true sense. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s understanding of “permanent” hair removal is that hair no longer grows during a hair growth cycle after laser or intense light treatment. Generally speaking, the hair removal rate can reach 90% after multiple laser or intense light treatments. Of course, its efficacy is affected by many factors.
Misconception 2: Laser or intense light hair removal only takes one session
To achieve long-lasting hair removal results, multiple treatments are required. Hair growth has cycles, including anagen, catagen and resting phases. Laser or strong light is only effective on hair follicles in the growth phase, but has no obvious effect on hair in the catagen and resting phases. It can only work after these hairs fall off and new hair grows in the hair follicles, so multiple treatments are required. The effect can be obvious.
Misconception 3: The effect of laser hair removal is the same for everyone and all parts of the body
The efficacy is different for different individuals and different parts. Individual influencing factors include: endocrine dysfunction, different anatomical parts, skin color, hair color, hair density, hair growth cycle and hair follicle depth, etc. Generally speaking, the effect of laser hair removal on people with white skin and dark hair is good.
Myth 4: The remaining hair after laser hair removal will become darker and thicker
The remaining hair after laser or bright light treatment will become finer and lighter in color. Since laser hair removal is a long-term process, it often requires multiple treatments, with more than a month between treatments.
