Photodepilation to remove hair

• April 20, 2024

The photoepilation is the elimination of hair by using light that encompasses two techniques:  laser depilation Y Intense Pulsed Light (IPL). With the passage of time, the latter, like the laser, offers permanent results, but provides greater benefits such as:

1. Greater effectiveness
2. Possibility of treating all types of skin and color of hair
3. It is more economical
4. Provides a painless treatment

The photoepilation helps to decrease skin blemishes , buried hairs Y Folliculitis . When intense light is applied on the skin , this is absorbed by the hair melanin (pigment that gives it color). The light is transformed into heat and leads it to the cells of the root that feed the hair, destroying them completely. Eliminated said cells , the hair dies and falls.

The franchisee of No + hair Lindavista , Berenice Soledad , explained in an interview for GetQoralHealth that because light penetrates only a few millimeters from the skin (being selective when addressing only the hair ) is a safe method that does not harm the skin ; However, there are cases in which it is not possible to apply the IPL: during the pregnancy , if you are undergoing treatment withphotosensitizers , diseases of the skin or areas with tattoos, among others, in which case it will be necessary to indicate it before the depilation.

Because in each part of our body the hair is different, even being in the same area, it can be more superficial or deep, and more or clear or dark, or it can be in pores with more or less action of the sebaceous glands Y sweaty .

The destruction of hair will also depend on factors such as:

1. Color of skin
2. Color and thickness hair
3. Sex and age of the person
4. Normal state

To eliminate hair, an average of between 6 and 8 sessions is required, which depends on the characteristics of each person. Practically all areas of the body can be treated, except those where the trigger can directly reach the eyes , as eyebrows or frown , mucous Y ear .
