The technology of photoepilation is the most painless, safe and effective technique for radical hair removal. Photoepilation is mainly offered by clinics and medical centers. It arose as a continuation and development of the method of laser hair removal. And, according to forecasts of specialists, it is this revolutionary and safe method in the coming years that can completely replace lasers.

Photoepilation is the effect on the hair follicles by the intense flow of light from the pulsed lamp, as a result of which the follicle collapses and the hair falls out. The energy of radiation and the duration of the pulse are selected based on the individual characteristics of the patient's skin and hair. The main unique advantage of this method is the ability to remove hair of any color and structure on all types of skin.

Before the procedure, the hair is shortened, but in no case shaved. Then light treatment is performed - it destroys the hair follicle. The procedure is almost painless, some patients feel a tingling sensation, but it passes very quickly. The great advantage of photoepilation is speed and convenience. For example, a business woman can come in the morning to remove her hair, then calmly go to work. Foot treatment by this method takes a maximum of one and a half hours.

To achieve the desired results, several procedures are necessary. The interval between them is from a month to two. One of the effects of photoepilation is the extension of the period of hair growth, so the break between procedures gradually increases, and the closer the final victory over extra hair, the longer the interval (up to a year).

After photoepilation, special means should be applied to light treated areas and protect the skin from prolonged exposure to sunlight, using sunscreens with a protection level of at least 25-30 units.

Photoepilation does not damage surrounding tissues and allows you to remove hair from all parts of the body - face, armpits, legs, bikini area - of any thickness and color. Currently, this technique has received universal recognition by cosmeticians and plastic surgeons around the world. Leading experts of the USA, Italy, Sweden, Germany, Israel work on the development of new and improvement of existing apparatuses for photoepilation.
