Permanent Facial Hair Removal

Permanent facial hair removal is a high priority for any woman who suffers with unwanted facial hair, but like all women, she will want to find a permanent facial hair removal option that is going to be kind to her skin.

Women spend enormous amounts of time and effort in ensuring that their skin always looks their best, and no woman wants to jeopardize the health of her skin. So what is the best way to remove facial hair while being kind to the sensitive skin that lies beneath?

Though men use a razor to remove hair from their chins and upper lips without a second thought, most women would flinch at such a harsh method of facial hair removal for their face. Most women have developed a routine that involves careful facial skin care, and so will be very discerning about what types of hair removers they use here.

use of razors can result in irritations The use of razors and depilatory creams can result in irritations that can make women feel very self-conscious, and these methods require attending to on a regular basis. So how can women remove facial hair in a permanent way without damaging their skin?

Is laser hair removal an option?

Laser hair removal is a good option for the removal of facial hair, but the results achieved are unfortunately not permanent, lasting usually only several months.

The usual method of permanent facial hair removal is electrolysis, but as hairs can only be removed singly with this method, it can thus be costly and time consuming. So is there another option that is permanent, but will also treat skin with the respect it deserves?

Thankfully there is. Epilight is a relatively new treatment that, like lasers, involves the use of light to remove hair, but unlike lasers, the results it offers are permanent. And perhaps even more appealing to many women is the fact that the Epilight system can be altered to the specific needs – the hair and skin types – of each woman, so you can be sure that the treatment will be administered with the health of your skin in mind. And though several treatments are usually required to achieve the final look, this method is kind to skin, and is highly effective.

Ask about Epilight at your local salon – it could be the end to your search for a safe and effective method of permanent facial hair removal.

Epilight hair removal is one of those scientific breakthroughs that emerge every now and again, making us wonder how we ever managed without them. Epilight hair removal is a safe and easy alternative to other methods of hair removal, and in a few years will probably be one of the leading hair removers available.

The Epilight Laser Hair Removal System

The Epilight system is an innovative treatment that involves using pulsing light to remove hairs permanently. Unlike electrolysis, the only other truly permanent method of hair removal, Epilight can remove hair from many follicles all at once, as opposed to the time consuming process of electrolysis, which removes only one hair at a time. Electrolysis also lacks the light touch that Epilight brings – this is a relatively painless treatment that requires no anaesthetics, and reputedly feels only like a mild pinch.

How Does Epilight Laser Hair Removal work?

A hand held light emitter is held above the area of hair to be removed, after a gel has been applied to the skin. The special light permeates the skin and disables hundreds of hair follicles at once. Most of the hair is removed when the gel is wiped away, and whatever remains usually falls out shortly thereafter.

So the Epilight treatment is fast, effective and painless – does it have any disadvantages? Unfortunately it does. While it can be used on any color skin – unlike laser hair removal which is effective only on certain skin types – and is more adaptable than any other treatment available, it is only effective on certain shades of hair. Blond, white and grey hair cannot be treated with this procedure. This is a treatment for darker shades of hair only.

But it is highly effective on this type of hair, and can be used in the most sensitive of areas, including the face and pubic hair. While this is still a relatively new treatment, it is an extremely effective one, and so if you are looking for a painless way to remove your unwanted hair, ask at your salon about Epilight hair removal.
