Depilation. Which way is better?

In their quest to make their skin impeccably clean, many use “ancient” methods of removing excess hair. Beauties who lived before our era used the simplest method of mechanical removal of excess hair: they wound it on a strong thread and pulled it out. Then tweezers appeared, which did not at all alleviate the “suffering”, and herbal tinctures - which made it possible to soften the treatment area.
It is known that Cleopatra used wax to remove excess hair on her face, other medieval ladies used soft bread crumb. Many “old” recipes are still used today, having slightly improved the technology of the process:
- wax (sugar) - mechanical removal of a certain amount of unwanted hair from the “nest”. It is accompanied by rather “sharp” pain and is acceptable for those with strong nerves. Before carrying out, it requires the necessary preparation (application of antiseptic, emollients). Impossible in the presence of oncology, benign neoplasms of varicose veins;
- Shaving - easily removes the shaft, while leaving the root (follicle) intact. Causes skin dehydration, dryness, the possibility of wounds and infection. Not suitable for the face if there are moles (papillomas) on the treated surface. Buying new blades and aftershave products will become an ongoing expense;
- special cream - based on chemicals that can “corrode” the hair shaft. Over time, the structure changes, it becomes thinner. Exposure to the chemical composition is accompanied by severe irritation. This method is not suitable for patients with sensitive skin prone to allergic reactions. Not used to treat the face, groin, armpit area;
- epilator - the principle of operation is based on mechanical “squeezing” of hairs and then pulling them out. The procedure is quite painful and does not guarantee complete elimination of the follicle. Among the contraindications, we note: the presence of venous problems, inflammatory processes of the skin, neoplasms (moles, papillomas);
- Electroepilation is the application of electric current to the hair root. Not used for the bikini area, armpit area;
- laser technique - based on light exposure. The use of this method is painless and eliminates the possibility of injury or infection. Can be used on any part of the body.

Which laser is more effective for hair removal
Having decided to remove hair using a laser, the question arises: “Which type of laser is best to choose for hair removal?” There are several types of laser equipment used for hair removal. Each option has its own distinctive features:
- ruby - began to be used about 20 years ago. Does not allow you to remove light, red, or clean skin that is too dark. Low depth of influence. Characterized by low effectiveness and a large number of sessions;
- diode - good characteristics, but there is a possibility of getting burned;
- neodymium is the most expensive and effective method, but the device used has low power, which negatively affects the duration and effectiveness of the procedure;
- Alexandrite is a powerful device that allows you to effectively eliminate excess vegetation on any part of the body, plus well-balanced price-quality indicators.
The presence of a built-in cooling system in the design of the alexandrite laser eliminates discomfort, making the procedure comfortable and effective. This equipment has found wide application in cosmetology. The Slim cosmetology center employs qualified personnel who will ensure the purity of your skin using the original alexandrite laser. We offer promotions discounts on laser hair removal, valid on an ongoing basis.
Advantages of laser hair removal
Laser hair removal using alexandrite equipment has a number of advantages compared to other methods of “fighting” excess hair on the body:
- instant heating, destruction of the hair follicle, with parallel cooling of the dermis;
- absence of any impact on adjacent areas;
- complete exclusion of inflammatory processes;
- a chance to completely and permanently get rid of excess hair.
