Epilation without pain with an epilator at home. Photoepilation - hair removal with light. What is the best way to epilate

The problem of unwanted facial and body hair worries almost every woman. Fortunately, today there are many different ways of depilation and epilation. Often we prefer home hair removal methods, taking care of saving money and time.

Features of depilation on the face

Unwanted facial hair is mainly removed mechanically. At home, learning how to fix the problem is easy. With such defects on the face, you can do the following:

• shave off, although this is highly undesirable, because new hairs will be more noticeable and harder;
• pull out with tweezers (near the eyebrows, above the lip);
• remove with a depilator;
• put on a special patch.

You can treat the hairs with depilatory cream or the means offered by "folk cosmetology", for example, hydrogen peroxide. Bleached hair will not be as visible as before.

Shaving facial hair is highly undesirable, it is better to use a depilatory cream

Getting rid of unwanted hair on the body

Methods for removing unwanted hair on the body are very diverse, since the skin there is less sensitive and not so prone to various kinds of inflammation. There are the following ways to get rid of the problem:

• Shave, cutting hairs from the skin. This procedure is simple and fast, but ineffective. Hair begins to grow literally in a day, and it becomes harder and darker every time. In addition, the razor cuts them. It is often possible to observe how several hairs of different lengths grow from one pore, which are difficult to remove. The procedure is recommended to be carried out with a special shaving gel, after steaming the skin. It is possible to remove hairs with a razor painlessly and without consequences only on the legs, where the skin is less sensitive. In the armpits and in the bikini area, you can easily get hurt by careless movement of the device. In this case, discomfort cannot be avoided, since the skin in these areas of the body is very sensitive.
• Use depilatory creams, mousses and gels. They need to be applied to wet skin, wait the specified time and scrape off the composition with a special spatula or soft cloth along with the hairs under running warm water. Creams are of different types. The hardness of the hair becomes decisive in their choice. Before applying the product, be sure to check how your skin reacts to its effects. Apply the cream on the elbow and do not wash it off for 15-20 minutes. If there is an allergic reaction, it will not be slow to affect. The composition of such creams includes substances that destroy the keratin compound, causing hair loss. You can use such products for the face, hands, armpits, bikini area. The effect persists for 7-10 days. Depilation of a deep bikini using this method is not recommended: the chemicals that make up the cream can cause irritation of the mucous membrane.
• Make depilation with wax plates or wax (cold, warm or hot). This procedure is considered quite painful. Wax should be slightly warmed up, applied to a fabric strip and smoothed on the skin in the direction of hair growth. The procedure will be more effective if their length at the time of removal reaches at least 4 mm. When the wax hardens, the strip must be torn off with a sharp and quick movement - already against hair growth. Residues should be removed with a damp cloth or soaked with a soft cloth with olive oil. Skin irritation may persist for up to a day. New hairs will begin to grow in 10-14 days. To consolidate the result, you should use means that slow down their growth. Wax strips can be applied several times.
• Make shugaring, or removal of unwanted vegetation with sugar paste, which is heated and applied to the skin against hair growth (their length at the time of removal should be about 2 mm). The procedure is suitable for any part of the body, and is also used by men to remove hair from the ears, nose, and neck. For sugar depilation at home, skill is needed: the strips of paste will roll during operation, and this should not be allowed. They need to be pulled in the direction of hair growth. To prepare the pasta you will need: 10 tbsp. granulated sugar, 1 tbsp. water, 4 tbsp. lemon juice. The ingredients must be thoroughly mixed and put on low heat, stirring occasionally. Then wait until the mass boils, and after 10 minutes remove from the stove. The paste should be transparent, with a slightly golden hue. After that, it is necessary to apply warm syrup to the skin, and if it is cold, it is worth warming it up in a water bath. For convenience, you can cover strips of cotton fabric with paste.
• Use an electric depilator (a device that pulls out hairs from the root). The first procedure using this device is quite painful. It seems that the hairs (which should have grown up to 5 mm by this moment) are torn out of the skin with miniature tweezers. Be careful, it is forbidden to treat moles and papillomas with a depilator, it is better to use a razor for the skin around them. The surface of the body must be dry. The procedure is recommended to be carried out at the lowest speed so that the hairs do not break off. The skin must be pulled back, and the device should be held perpendicular to the body and driven against hair growth: first up, then down. All actions must be performed slowly and carefully. After the procedure, it is worth applying a moisturizer. The susceptibility of the skin decreases each time, new hairs grow weakened and are removed more easily.

Depilation at home is carried out on average once every two weeks (a little more or less for some methods). Procedures performed in the salon give a longer lasting effect. The information that epilation (hair removal by irradiating the bulb) allows you to get rid of body hair once and for all is a fairly common myth, but in a few procedures they will really become less thick and stiff, and they will also grow back much longer .

In the salon, you can choose one of the suitable procedures:

• Electrolysis. A thin needle is inserted under the skin, through which an electric current is applied to the follicles.
• Laser epilation. This is a long but almost painless procedure. It is recommended to carry out to remove unwanted vegetation on the face and in the armpits. After the first session, the hair will begin to fall out after two to three weeks. As a result of several procedures, you can get rid of 80-90% of the hairline on the treated area. But after two or three months, hairs that were in a “sleeping” state grow back, they need re-treatment;
• Photoepilation. A quick procedure, imperceptible even for thin skin. Under the influence of sharp light flashes aimed at the place of hair growth, the follicle is destroyed;
• Elos epilation. Procedure with elements of photo and laser hair removal.

Depilation at home gives the same result as in the salon, but the procedure needs to be done more often.

A significant drawback of all home depilation methods is that they remove hairs only on the surface, without affecting the bulb. Unwanted vegetation cannot break through the rough skin. The hairs are starting to grow back. Typical symptoms are redness, itching and black dots on the skin. The problem can be solved, but it requires some effort, so it’s better to start preparing for depilation in advance and do everything at once.

Skin care before and after the procedure

Hair removal is associated with a violation of the upper layer of the skin and can cause microcracks, redness and irritation. Before starting the procedure, you need to disinfect your hands and tools by wiping both with alcohol. Never depilate if there is an ingrown hair on the skin. It is necessary to remove it with a scalpel and tweezers, slightly incising the skin. Only when the wounds heal, you can take care of the regrown hairline.

On a note. Cosmetologists advise to shave with a machine a week before depilation. In a few days, the hairs will grow to the length required for the procedure - 3–5 mm.

First, steam your skin well (better if you take a bath). So it will become softer, and the hair will be easier to remove the next day. The places of depilation should be washed well to get rid of sebum and an invisible layer of dirt, this will prevent possible inflammation. Exfoliate all treated areas with a hard washcloth and body scrub - this again will prevent ingrown hairs. Squeeze a little on the fingertips and apply to the skin, massaging lightly. Perform movements carefully, without scratching the surface of the body. After cleansing, apply a generous amount of cream or lotion. On the day of the procedure, you do not need to additionally cleanse and moisturize the skin. If you use a razor to remove hair, be careful not to apply too much pressure and only along the hair growth. Rinse the blade as often as possible with hot water.

At the end of the procedure, be sure to treat the skin with a means to slow down hair growth (depilatory cream of any brand, cream-gels that slow down hair growth, moisturizing body mousses with the same effect). After two days, peeling can be done again and then repeated once or twice a week.

• heart diseases;
• varicose veins;
• skin diseases.

How to do depilation without pain

To reduce pain, you can use:

• medicines:
  • frost spray;
  • Lidocaine 10%;
  • prilocaine;
  • Menovazin;
• cosmetics, which include a light anesthetic:

Folk ways to remove hair

The list of folk remedies for depilation has expanded relatively recently, when drugs such as hydrogen peroxide or potassium permanganate suddenly discovered the ability to remove body hair. As it turned out, there are quite a few ways, including the completely forgotten burning of hairs.

The skin in the bikini area is very delicate and sensitive, because a lot of nerve endings are concentrated there. For this reason, epilation in this place should be carried out very carefully and carefully so as not to cause severe pain, irritation or allergic reactions.

Unfortunately, not all methods of hair removal are painless, so the list of possible ones will have to be excluded:

• epilator machine;
• sugaring;
• waxing.

But, despite the limited list, we still have a sufficient number of effective methods in our arsenal.

General recommendations for the epilation procedure in the bikini area

1. It is recommended to epilate at the end or immediately after menstruation. Firstly, the risk of infections will decrease, and secondly, it is believed that during this period the pain threshold in women is higher.
2. A few hours before the procedure, cleanse the skin with a washcloth or belongings.
3. The skin should be steamed before manipulations.

Laser hair removal

The most effective and painless way to remove hair today is laser hair removal. During the procedure, only a slight tingling sensation is felt on the skin, and even then, not in all women. In addition to absolute painlessness, this method will allow you to completely get rid of hair after a few procedures. The current level of technology development will allow you to carry out laser hair removal at home on your own. This process is carried out using a portable laser epilator.

The advantage of the method is the absence of pain and high efficiency.

The downside is the high cost of parting (from 7,000 rubles), the ability to work only with black hairs on light skin.

Important! If the hair is not black, but reddish or gray, the device will not work. Similarly, the proper effect cannot be achieved with dark or very tanned skin.

Impact Technology

Portable epilators operate on the principle of a scanner: when a dark hair pigment enters the scanning area, the device works and destroys the hair follicle with a laser beam. On average, the laser beam covers a surface with an area of ​​30 mm2. It should be noted that the devices are absolutely safe and do not cause any harm to the human body.

How to apply

For application, it is enough to direct the laser beam to the hair root and, depending on the functions of the device, press the button or unlock it. The application process is as simple as possible, and every woman can handle it.

Attention! Laser epilators are contraindicated for people prone to cancer. Also, you can not use these devices in an area with a large number of moles.

2. Apply the cream to the skin in a thin layer.
3. Hold it for the time indicated in the instructions.

Plus - absolute painlessness, the absence of black dots after the procedure.

Minus - chemical exposure.

Hair bleaching

Hair bleaching is one of the types of chemical hair removal, however, this method is considered to be milder. The products used for it bleach the hair, after which they are quite easily destroyed by themselves. In many women, after several procedures, hair growth slows down or stops altogether.

The procedure is rather slow, so for the first time it is necessary to conduct several sessions to achieve the effect.

In order to bleach your hair, you can purchase a special product at a cosmetic store or prepare the necessary solution yourself. Solutions are prepared using preparations containing hydrogen peroxide.

Discoloration with pure hydrogen peroxide solution.

A regular medical solution is suitable, which you need to moisten a cotton swab or cloth and apply to the hairs in the bikini area.

Using this ointment is the safest way to bleach hairs. It is recommended to buy 30% ointment. To prepare the remedy you will need:

• ointment 3 g;
• vaseline 8 g;
• lanolin 18 g;

Apply the finished mixture to the bikini area in an even layer and hold for about half an hour.

Attention! In case you are the owner of very delicate skin, the recipe below is not recommended.

Discoloration with iodine

The advantages of the method are the possibility of a complete suspension of hair growth, low cost.

Minus - chemical exposure and possible allergic reactions.

Machine epilation

The easiest and most common way to quickly get rid of hairs for a short time is shaving. To use it, simply apply a shaving gel or cream to the skin and run the machine in the direction of hair growth. It is recommended to use a new machine for each deep epilation procedure so as not to introduce an infection.

During machine hair removal, you need to act as carefully as possible, avoiding sudden movements and sliding the machine to the sides, otherwise you can cut the skin. At the end of the procedure, lubricate the skin with a soothing aftershave lotion.

Advantages of the method: easy to use, low cost.

Cons: low efficiency, risk of skin damage.

How to reduce pain in painful epilation methods

We all have a different threshold of sensitivity: only painless methods of hair removal are suitable for someone, and someone can calmly endure mild pain.

pain pills

Judging by the reviews of women, many of them are helped by ordinary painkillers. The method is not guaranteed, it helps someone, someone does not. It all depends on the characteristics of your body and the sensitivity of the skin.

Topical application of painkillers such as novocaine or lidocaine is considered more effective.

Important! Before using local painkillers, make sure. That they don't cause you an allergic reaction.

Epilator machine with special attachments.

The range of epilator machines is very diverse, and their functionality is quite wide. Many of these devices come with gel or cooling tips that significantly reduce pain during the procedure.

Such machines get rid of hair by pulling them out. Most of them are equipped with wheels that turn in different directions. While running them through the hairs, they “chew” them and pull them out by the root.

More expensive versions of such devices are additionally protected from water penetration, so they can be used directly in the bathroom. Water is known to relieve pain.

Everyone knows that beauty requires some sacrifice. But how do you want them to be minimal. Using an epilator brings a lot of discomfort. And even despite the desired and long-term result, many girls do not dare to continue using this method of getting rid of hair. To make the procedure more comfortable, it is enough to know how to reduce pain during epilation with an epilator, choose the most appropriate methods for yourself and practice them.

How to reduce pain when removing hair with an epilator?

To begin with, it should be said that before purchasing an epilator, choose the model that is equipped with various add-ons to reduce pain. Your mental attitude is also important. You can not start the procedure with the expectation of pain.

It is necessary to relax, breathe freely, think about the result and that after several procedures the pain will become less and less.

In addition, the phase of the menstrual cycle can affect the sensitivity and pain threshold. Do not epilate during menstruation. It is believed that in the first days of the cycle, the procedure will be less painful.

In addition, there are non-drug and drug ways to make hair removal with an epilator almost painless. Let's analyze them in more detail.

Non-drug methods

These methods have no contraindications and are suitable for everyone.

1. Steaming the skin before the procedure greatly facilitates hair removal. Therefore, it is recommended to take a shower about half an hour before epilation.
2. Preliminary scrubbing will get rid of keratinized particles of the epithelium, which will allow the hair to leave the bulb more easily.
3. Do not use ice before the procedure. It constricts blood vessels and skin pores, making hair removal painful.
4. The manufacturers themselves have taken care of how to make hair removal with an epilator painless by adding various nozzles and limiters to the kits. Many epilators have a special shape. It is disconnected from the device, filled with water and placed in the freezer. The ice mold is placed in the epilator. For some, this helps to significantly reduce pain. But still, it is better to use ice after the procedure.
5. Massage nozzles relax the skin and make it more elastic. The hairs are easier to pull out.
6. Epilators with special discs that press the skin. The developers came up with a convenient system in which massage discs press the skin and reduce pain.
7. Epilation technique. This is an important tip on how to make epilation less painful with an epilator. The epilator does not need to press too hard on the skin, but you should start working at a slow speed. Hold the device at an angle. If you do not have a device with special pressing discs, then hold the skin and gently pull it.
8. There are many models that allow you to do hair removal in the shower, which greatly reduces discomfort during the procedure.

Medical methods

Usually, drugs are used in beauty parlors before the most painful procedures. But even at home, some girls tend to resort to such measures. Although not all of them are safe and have no contraindications.

Medications

Most often, these are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory tablets (diclofenac, ibuprofen, ketonal). Perhaps these remedies can relieve the pain a little, but you need to remember that they adversely affect the liver.

They should not be abused before each procedure. Do not use aspirin, which increases blood viscosity. This can lead to the appearance of small bruises at the site of the torn hair.

Spray Lidocaine

It is applied a few hours before epilation and wrap the skin with a film. This contributes to its greater efficiency.

Cream for pain relief

Manufacturers have made sure that beauties do not puzzle over how to reduce pain when using an epilator, and have developed special creams. One of the popular options is Emla cream. It is more gentle than its analogues of the Lidocaine brand. Great for epilation on the face. The drug contains lidocaine and prilocaine, which help reduce pain.

The cream is applied to the surface of the skin with a thin layer and kept under a bandage for an hour with anesthesia 2 mm deep, for two hours - 3 mm deep. Do not use the cream on damaged skin and mucous membranes of the genital organs. The action of the cream lasts for 120 minutes. An analogue of Emla cream is LightDep. It comes in two forms: for the face and for the body. Considered less allergenic than Emla.

Patch

Emla has invented a handy patch for those who are too lazy to mess around with bandages. The downside is the small size. But in areas such as under the nose, under the armpits or on the stomach, it is very convenient to use it.

Pain injections

They are used for professional hair removal in the intimate area and on the inside of the thighs.

For the purpose of anesthesia, a solution of lidocaine is used. The needle is inserted about 3-4 mm. Injections are made in a checkerboard pattern. Many people are allergic to this drug. This should be known and reported to the doctor or cosmetologist. Otherwise, anaphylactic shock may occur.

Most likely, epilation with an epilator is impossible without pain. But methods that can make the procedure more bearable are enough. Everyone has their own sensitivity. What suits one does not suit another. But it is better to start trying with non-drug methods of pain relief. Excessive exposure to drugs is undesirable for the body, no matter how safe they are considered. Remember that after a few procedures, hair removal will no longer seem such a terrible torture. But deciding to use medications, consider the characteristics of your body and, if necessary, consult a doctor.

Today, skin without a single hair is very beautiful, comfortable and hygienic. This is why salons offering hair removal services are so popular. But many women are afraid to undergo a hair removal procedure because of its soreness. In this case, we can recommend painless hair removal - masters of their craft can offer a large selection of methods that will not cause unbearable pain.

Today, the beauty industry does not stand still: doctors and cosmetologists come up with new and more effective methods for skin care. Beauty salons offer many types of hair removal that do not cause pain, we will talk about the two most popular of them.

Laser hair removal

Laser hair removal is recognized by many women as the most effective and painless in terms of sensations. However, like many cosmetic procedures, it has contraindications:

Laser hair removal is contraindicated for pregnant women, as well as those suffering from diabetes and infectious diseases.

- laser hair removal is not recommended for natural blondes, because the laser reacts to the pigment and simply does not notice blond hair;

Laser hair removal is also not recommended for women with swarthy or tanned skin - dark skin concentrates the laser energy on itself, which can lead to a burn, in place of which a pigment spot will remain after a while;

If there are cuts, abrasions, herpes on the skin, laser hair removal is contraindicated.

Before starting the procedure, a sensitivity test is performed, then a cooling and anesthetic gel is applied to the epilation site, and only then the cosmetologist starts work.

Most likely, for the complete disappearance of hairs, you will have to repeat the procedure from four to twelve times. It should be noted that the laser removes only sprouted hair.

Photoepilation

Photoepilation removes hair by destroying melanin along its entire length. Unlike a laser, during photoepilation, a directed light flux acts on the hair. Its difference lies in the fact that you can vary the wavelength, flash frequency and light power, which helps if the hair follicles lie at different depths.
Contraindications for photoepilation are the same as for laser hair removal, with the exception of the point about fair-haired women - this type of hair removal suits them.

The period of skin rehabilitation after photoepilation lasts about a week. At this time, it is desirable to exclude the use of cosmetics, do not visit saunas and baths.

However, there is a significant drawback of this method - in the summer this type of hair removal should not be done, since after it you can not sunbathe for a whole month.

The result of the procedure is visible after the first treatment - under the influence of light, the hairs fall out and the skin becomes smooth. In order to achieve the best effect, photoepilation should be repeated three to five times.

Epilation is the removal of unwanted vegetation from any part of the body. Currently, you can choose any of the proposed methods: photo, laser or electrolysis. They will help to permanently get rid of unwanted vegetation on the body.

Instruction

Opt for photoepilation if you have dark hair and plan to get rid of it permanently. The procedure is carried out using a light guide, through which flashes of filtered light are fed. In the follicles, light is converted into heat. Hair follicles are destroyed. The pulse of the supplied energy is selected individually, taking into account the type of skin of a particular patient. The hair removal procedure causes almost no side effects, but its disadvantage is that only dark hair can be removed. To get the final result, you will have to use photoepilation several times. From the first time to get rid of unwanted hair forever will not work.

Take advantage of laser hair removal. This method is suitable for any hair color. A pulse of laser radiation is generated in the hair follicles, the bulbs are destroyed. Selectively acting on unwanted vegetation, the laser beam does not destroy the epidermis. This guarantees perfect painlessness and no side effects. You can remove hair in the area, in the armpits, on the face with a laser. Like photoepilation, laser hair removal needs to be done several times. This is the only way to achieve the complete disappearance of unwanted vegetation.

If you urgently need to permanently remove all unwanted vegetation in one procedure, choose electrolysis. This procedure is carried out using a directed flow of electrical energy. Electrolysis at a time allows you to destroy the hair growth zone of any color. Its use is allowed for any type of skin. An electronic epilator delivers an electric current, at the end of the device a pulse is formed with a tiny spark, which directly affects the lower part of the hair follicle. Electrolysis can be used on any part of the body. You can remove hair on the arms, in the bikini area, armpits, face, mammary glands.

Excess facial hair can spoil even the brightest and most attractive appearance. It is considered the best way to deal with them. If you do not trust cosmetologists or want to save money, you can do it yourself, at home.

It is believed that facial hair removal is a very painful and even dangerous procedure. Some doctors believe that during the removal of excess vegetation, moles can be accidentally damaged, which can lead to serious consequences. This happens mainly during an independent attempt to get rid of hair using a conventional household epilator, which is completely unsuitable for use on delicate facial skin.

To epilate this area, only methods such as:

1. Wax strips. They can be used for home hair removal of the face. You can buy a set of strips in almost any cosmetic store. Before use, each must be warmed in the hands so that the wax impregnation melts. Of course, this method cannot be called painless, but after application, you will forget about facial hair for several weeks.

2.Laser. Laser hair removal will help you permanently get rid of excessive hair growth of the skin. True, you will have to complete a course of 7-10 procedures. A thin laser beam directed at the hair follicle for several seconds destroys it, so the hair in this place will not grow either in a week or a year. Pleasure is very expensive, but effective.

3. The principle of impact during electric hair removal is approximately the same as with laser hair removal, only the laser beam is replaced by an electric pulse. Hair may disappear for up to one year. However, after several courses, unattractive scars and scars may remain on the skin.

4. Photoepilation is the most popular among visitors to beauty salons. It is absolutely painless and has a fairly long effect.

It is highly undesirable to remove facial hair with a razor or depilatory cream. In the first case, hair. This type of hair removal is suitable for hair of any color and all skin types, in addition, it is safe. The effect of this procedure is achieved by exposing the follicle to combined optical energy and bipolar radio frequency. This technology has undergone many clinical studies and has successfully established itself as the best way to combat the growth of unwanted hair. Thanks to ELOS epilation, it is possible to achieve a complete cessation of hair growth. The number of treatments required depends on the color and type of hair. One of the main distinguishing properties of ELOS technology is that only hair follicles are destroyed, while the skin does not heat up, which eliminates burns. ELOS hair removal is recognized worldwide as a unique and effective hair removal technology that gives one hundred percent result. Its convenience lies in the almost complete absence of side effects, contraindications and the need for restrictions after the procedure. For example, nothing will prevent you from going straight from the salon to the solarium or to the beach - unlike photoepilation, there is no ban on tanning. The only rule that should be followed before ELOS epilation is to shave the hair on the eve of the procedure (1-2 days in advance). By the day of the epilation, the hairs will grow back a couple of millimeters, which will make the procedure more effective. Contraindications include hyperthermia, cancer, pregnancy, the presence of a pacemaker or metal implants in the epilation area. For the final disposal of unwanted vegetation on the body, a course of procedures is required. This is due to the fact that during each session, only those hairs that are in the active growth phase at the time of epilation are subjected to destruction. The next procedure is scheduled, as a rule, after 1.5-2 months, when the rest of the hairs begin to grow actively.

Instruction

The photoepilation procedure is the most radical, safe and effective way to get rid of facial hair. Unwanted vegetation is removed with a light pulse. The energy heats the bulbs, and after a few days the hairs partially fall out. In one session of photoepilation, approximately 30% of the hairline is removed. If this procedure is carried out correctly, then the hairs will no longer grow. One session will not be enough, it is necessary to carry out at least three procedures. Photoepilation is quick and absolutely painless, has no contraindications and does not cause allergic reactions, and the duration does not exceed five minutes.

Laser hair removal is somewhat similar to photoepilation. Hair follicles are destroyed by the laser beam. As in photoepilation, the beam is conducted through melanin. The procedure is quite fast, the hairs are processed in groups. Loss of unwanted facial hair continues for two weeks. To completely get rid of hair growth, you will need to go through about ten sessions. In the future, for prevention, you need to do laser hair removal once or twice a year. For several days after the procedure, unpleasant sensations remain on the face. It is not recommended to sunbathe in the solarium and on the beach for two weeks.

Women have long struggled with unwanted vegetation on their bodies. And no matter what methods they used to get rid of excess hair. Today, however, science has gone so far that various methods of hair removal have been invented. The impact of this procedure is aimed at the "root of evil" - the hair follicle and hair follicle, which allows you to get rid of unwanted hair for a long time or even forever.

Benefits of different types of hair removal

Today, there are several different types of hair removal:
- laser epilation;
- photoepilation;
- electrolysis;
- enzymatic epilation;
- ultrasonic epilation.

Laser hair removal is able to act on a group of follicles at once. The full course is approximately 3 or 4 sessions. To consolidate the effect obtained, repeated sessions are needed after 2-3 months.

With the help of a laser device, it is possible to treat a large surface in 1 session - for example, shins and thighs. During laser treatment, the skin is not damaged, and therefore the possibility of scarring or infection is practically excluded. The laser hair removal procedure is practically painless and short (for example, it will take 5 to 10 minutes to affect the bikini area.

Photoepilation and laser hair removal allow for several sessions of exposure to light on the hair follicles to destroy the latter, as a result of which unwanted hair will never bother you.

Photoepilation is also a virtually painless procedure, with no mechanical effect on the skin. In addition, in the skin, under the influence of light, the process of producing a protein that is responsible for skin elasticity, collagen, is activated.

The photoepilation method is suitable even for those whose hair and skin do not contrast much. This procedure can be done for women with dark skin and dark hair.

Electrolysis reliably removes unwanted hairs. With the help of a thin needle through which current passes, the hair follicle is removed. This procedure is a little painful, but very effective. A properly destroyed hair follicle is not restored after a session of electrolysis. This method is available for all types of hair and any skin color.

Thanks to photoepilation, both hard and fluffy hairs can be removed.

Enzymatic hair removal is safe, very convenient and. With this method, you can epilate hair straight. The essence of the procedure of enzymatic hair removal is the effect on the follicles of the so-called enzymes - biologically active substances.

This procedure is carried out in several stages. First, do the classic wax depilation. After that, the master applies an enzyme-containing preparation to the skin, and on top of it - a thermal bandage. Then all this is well warmed up by infrared rays. To consolidate the effect obtained, it is desirable to carry out such a procedure once a month.

With ultrasonic hair removal, unwanted hair is removed using a special gel and an ultrasound machine. As with enzymatic hair removal, first the master will do the usual wax depilation for you. The very procedure of ultrasonic hair removal is painless.

So what is good hair removal: conclusions

Epilation is good because in just a few sessions held in the salon by a master cosmetologist, you will get rid of unwanted vegetation for good. With the help of hair removal, you can permanently eliminate the problem that can ruin even the most attractive face. You can remove hair wherever you want: on, in the armpit, in the intimate area, etc.

Yes, waxing is expensive. However, imagine that you will never again need to pluck, shave, remove, while experiencing not the most pleasant sensations, and possibly severe pain. You will also forget about the problem of irritation, redness and ingrown hairs. That's what epilation is good for.

Women began to get rid of unwanted hair in ancient times. Smooth skin is a sign of well-groomed and now. Progress does not stand still, and several effective methods have now been developed to remove hair for a long time.

Photoepilation - hair removal with light

During the procedure of photoepilation, the hairs are irradiated with bright flashes of light. The light reacts with melanin - the pigment of the hair - and heats the hairs to a very high temperature. Due to this, the hair and its follicle are destroyed. To protect the skin from burns, a special gel is applied to it, but sunburn increases the risk of damage to the skin. Therefore, it is better to come to the procedure in winter and before trips to the south. There are painful sensations from the procedure, but not the same as when using an epilator. After the first session, approximately 40% of the hair falls out, the rest become thinner. For optimal results, you need to go through 5-7 procedures.

The disadvantages of photoepilation include its high cost. One flash costs 100-300 rubles, you have to make several dozen flashes per session.

Electrolysis - an effective, but painful way

During electrolysis, a thin needle with an electrode is inserted into the bulb of each hair, through which an electric current is supplied. This destroys the bulb, causing the hair to gradually fall out. Since each hair needs to be treated, the procedure is done quite slowly - you will have to go through about 12 sessions. The session can only be held once a month. Also, electrolysis is very painful, but after it the hair disappears forever.

Laser hair removal - the latest technology in the beauty industry

This procedure takes place using a laser - high density light. Just like with photoepilation, the hair heats up and breaks down. Laser hair removal is less painful, which distinguishes it from other types. However, it should be treated with caution if you have a fresh tan, pronounced scars, as well as some diseases - diabetes, dermatitis, infectious diseases. Sessions of laser hair removal should be repeated every 1-3 months during the year.

Light or red hair is practically not removed by laser.

Elos epilation - a symbiosis of photo and electrolysis

This procedure is based on the simultaneous exposure to flashes of light and electricity. A special device affects the hair with a current, and dense light directs the current exactly inside the hair. This type of hair removal has practically no contraindications and is less painful than photo and electrolysis. To achieve the effect, you need to visit the salon about 12 times - once a month. The procedure has conflicting

For those who do not have the funds for professional epilation, which gets rid of excess body hair forever, many ways have been invented to deal with this trouble: a razor, wax, depilatory creams, sugaring, etc. But the most effective is an electric epilator, after which the hair does not grow for a very long time. Unfortunately, the procedure with this device often causes severe pain, so our article will discuss how to make hair removal painless at home.

It is worth mentioning right away that it will not work to completely remove the pain effect. But reducing it by at least 50% is quite realistic. Each woman can choose the method that suits her.

Picking the right day

The sensitivity of nerve endings depends on the menstrual cycle. After the end of bleeding, the first few days are considered the most favorable for the use of the epilator, since the body will not perceive pain so critically. Before and during menstruation, it is better not to experiment.

Choosing a quality epilator

The modern technology market offers a huge range of these devices. They can be equipped with:

• special nozzles for lifting hairs;
• cooling gel pads;
• the ability to work under cold water;
• special nozzles with ice.

Such tricks will help dull the pain a little. This is especially important for the first few times.

Painless zones

It is necessary to take up the hair removal procedure from the least sensitive areas. For example, it is better to start epilation of legs from the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe fold of the foot in front. Slowly advancing, they reach the knee and only then process the calves. The last zone is very susceptible to pain, so it is left “for a snack” when they have already adapted to the sensations a little.

Mode Selection

Any epilator has several speeds. Particularly sensitive places are better to pass on the largest. By the way, there are different nozzles with a different number of hair clips. Where it hurts, you need to take the minimum number.

Skin pretreatment

Before the removal procedure, the skin should not be dry, otherwise it will lead to very strong pain. The day before the planned epilation, the skin is treated with a scrub to remove all dead cells. In front of her, for 30 minutes, the intended places are thoroughly steamed, which will help open the pores and make it easier for the hairs to come out.

Pulling on the skin

The advice may seem insignificant, but in fact, many girls confirm its effectiveness in their experience. When pulling out hair, the epilated area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe skin must be pulled in different directions. It's good for relieving pain.

Painkillers

For those who are especially sensitive and shy, it can be advised to take a tablet of Nurofen, Aulin, Ketotifen or any other analgesic that a particular woman uses if necessary 40 minutes before the start of hair removal. The pharmacy also sells sprays and aerosols such as lidocaine or Frost Spray. They have both antiseptic and analgesic effects of a local nature.

Ice cubes with herbs

Freezing also helps dull the pain. An excellent option is to freeze ice from a decoction of chamomile, calendula, plantain and any other herb with an antibacterial effect. Before the procedure, in a couple of minutes, they wipe the epilated area with an ice cube and boldly get down to business.

Cream + film

Some girls are helped by pre-wraps with special anesthetic creams and plastic wrap. They are kept for half an hour and begin to remove excess vegetation. As an example, it is advised to use creams such as Emla or Speed ​​Numb. Braun even has special wipes that have an anesthetic effect and soothe the skin.

Tonic with glycerin

A few minutes before epilation, the skin can be treated with a tonic with glycerin. This will moisturize it a little, protect it from germs and anesthetize. Suitable remedy from any cosmetic brand.

Holding your breath

Many women have noticed that when holding their breath, it is easier to go through painful areas. Of course, this is just a distraction, but still there is some sense in it.

Glass of wine

No one encourages women to mass drunkenness, but alcohol very well dulls all sensations, including pain. If you drink 200-300 ml of real red wine before epilation, it will relax both mentally and physically. Another plus is that it is a high-quality grape drink that can raise hemoglobin levels in a short time. Hair removal with an epilator is carried out once or twice a month, so such an amount of alcohol will not lead to alcoholism.

Distraction tricks

Music, TV, conversation, singing songs, eating chocolate - anything. The main thing is to divert attention from sensations. If a woman concentrates on something else, she will not be so hurt. Well, how to switch is a private matter for each of the fair sex.

After epilation

To restore the skin after the procedure, it is necessary to treat it in one of the following ways:

• antiseptic tonic + nourishing cream;
• anti-inflammatory ointment;
• decoction with chamomile or calendula + fat cream.

This will contribute to the maximum disinfection of micro-wounds that are present after any hair removal, nutrition of damaged skin and quick relief from irritation.

And finally, you need to remember that it is undesirable to use an epilator to remove hair in the armpits and inguinal region, as this can lead to infection of these areas of the body and the formation of suppuration.
