Everything You Need to Know About Permanent Hair Removal

If you’re a woman considering the idea of getting rid of unwanted hair, you may be wondering whether permanent hair removal is even possible. It is true that hair removal is not possible, but the process is often referred to as permanent hair reduction. This is because hair follicles grow based on hormonal imbalances. There are a few options for semi-permanent hair removal, including electrolysis and laser treatments.

IPL devices

IPL devices for permanent hair reduction are relatively safe to use, but you should be careful to follow instructions and use only a reputable brand. While most of these devices are FDA-cleared, some users have experienced burning, redness, or blisters. If you experience any of these side effects, contact a medical professional immediately. IPL devices are most effective when hair is dry and short. You should also avoid waxing or shaving before undergoing a treatment. Long hair may also result in burns.

Electrolysis

In order to have permanent hair removal, electrolysis is recommended. However, it is not a quick fix. You will need several appointments with a professional hair removal technician to achieve the desired results. Electrolysis is slow and often requires multiple sessions to completely remove all hair. After undergoing electrolysis, the affected area may feel stinging or tender. If pain is a concern, your doctor can administer a topical anesthetic. After the procedure, you should use sunscreen and avoid scratching the treated area.

Laser hair removal

If you’re considering laser hair removal, there are several things you should know about the procedure. First, it takes several treatments to get the desired results. The procedure itself takes approximately six to eight sessions to achieve the desired results. If you have a high-risk hair color, you should consult a dermatologist. Dr. Kurzman will discuss the procedure with you and determine how many treatments you will need to achieve the desired results.

Sugaring

If you want to permanently remove your body hair, you may be wondering whether sugaring is the right solution. While waxing is often a painful procedure, sugaring is completely organic and much gentler. You’ll also notice less redness and irritation with sugaring, making it a great option for sensitive skin. And sugaring is cheaper than laser hair removal. Let’s take a closer look at this hair removal technique.

Plucking

Plucking for permanent hair removal is an option for some people, but not all. Plucking is an unpleasant process, and it takes a good deal of skill to successfully remove hair. Incorrect plucking techniques can result in hair breakage and bald spots. This method also leaves a white patch along the hairline, a sign of a fungal infection of the hair shaft. Trichosporon is a fungus and has two species: one that attacks the hair follicle, the other which causes the white patch.

Waxing

Waxing is a popular method of permanent hair removal that removes hair from the root. It uses a mixture of natural ingredients that glide over the skin when wet and cling tightly when dry. The hot wax pulls the hair from the follicle, leaving the skin smooth and hair-free for weeks. The process is safe and effective. Waxing can be done on almost any part of the body.

Sugaring removes the whole hair

Compared to waxing, sugaring is less painful and causes less irritation. The paste is applied against the direction of hair growth, rather than in the opposite direction. The hair follicles do not become irritated by the sugaring process and the hair slides out easily in its natural direction. Sugaring is particularly effective for removing thick, curly, or ingrown hair. To reduce the chances of bruising, sugaring is recommended for areas that can’t be waxed.
