If you are looking for a permanent hair removal system, you need to be aware of a couple of points. First, you need to understand that the word ‘permanent’ in terms of hair removal doesn’t mean forever. Second, you need to distinguish between what types of hair removal are ‘permanent’, and which are only ‘temporary’.
Permanent hair removal simply implies that the hair which is removed should stop growing for a long period of time, usually for at least a few years. It is also important to note that different types of removal may often give different people different results. Luckily, there are several different methods, so if one doesn’t do the trick, you can always try something else. Studies show that most common permanent hair removal systems will stop hair growth in about 95% of the people who use them for a variable amount of time.
Permanent hair removal methods that are most commonly used these days are: electrolysis (includes galvanic electrolysis, thermolysis as well as the blend method which is a combination of the two), laser hair removal is becoming increasingly popular, Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and its variants: Variable Pulsed Light (VPL); Controlled Pulsed Light (CPL); Intense Flashed Light (IFL) are also used.
Short term, or temporary hair removal usually implies a form of hair removal in which the hair is removed and growth is usually unaffected. Depilation, shaving, trimming, and friction are common methods which remove the hair at the shaft. Epilation is mechanical removal of hair at the root- it is the superior form of temporary hair removal. Forms of epilation are plucking, tweezing, threading, abrasives, sugaring and waxing. Lastly, Bleaching is a short term solution in which the hair isn’t removed, but made to be less noticeable.
Permanent hair removal treatments often require one to come back for a couple to several treatments depending on a variety of circumstances ranging from the area being treated to the hair type of the person who is getting rid of unwanted hair. Permanent facial hair removal on a light haired European woman will require a different amount of commitment than permanent body hair removal on an Italian male who is exceptionally hairy.
When you are looking to remove unwanted hair permanently, keep in mind that ‘permanent’ is more or less subjective when it comes to dealing with hair. Using the permanent methods described above will most likely involve more than a single visit and there is a small chance that you may have to try a couple of different techniques before finding one that works for you. When you do find something that works however, the cost and effort involved is well worth the time and energy you would have had to have spent dealing with unwanted hair on a daily basis.
