6. Principle of photon hair removal

The melanocytes in the hair follicles absorb light of a specific wavelength, causing the hair follicles to generate heat and selectively destroy the hair follicles. At the same time, the heat emitted can be transmitted to the deep part of the hair follicles through the cross section of the hair shaft, causing the temperature of the hair follicles to rise rapidly, thereby achieving the effect of removing hair while avoiding damage to surrounding tissues.

How to use

The controlled pulsed light of appropriate energy is absorbed by the hair follicle tissue, precisely destroying the two important components of the hair follicle, namely the hair bulge and the hair papilla. The wide spectrum technology is applied to provide a gentle, non-invasive treatment method. The special band of strong pulsed light emitted by it can penetrate the skin and reach the deep part of the hair follicle, thereby rapidly raising the temperature of the hair follicle until it solidifies and necrotizes, achieving the effect of permanent hair removal. Expert Tip: Photon hair removal technology has been certified to achieve the effect of permanent hair removal in the growth stage after several treatments. The specific number of treatments is related to many factors such as the type of skin and hair. Photon hair removal takes a short time and you can resume your daily activities and physical exercise after the operation without any special care.

It is significantly superior to other traditional hair removal methods and can effectively remove hair of different depths, colors and textures from any part of the body, such as the face, underarms, back, legs and bikini line.

Electricity is used to destroy hair follicles, so that hair will never grow.

How to use

Insert a very thin wire into the hair root, and then energize it to destroy the hair follicles. It takes about 20 seconds for each hair. Anesthesia is required before hair removal. Expert Tip: After the operation, 20% to 30% of the hair may grow again because the hair follicles are not destroyed thoroughly enough. During the hair removal process, there will be a slight burning phenomenon on the surface of the skin, so temporary small scars will be produced, so keep the wound dry. After about a week, the small scab will fall off automatically. If you have a scar-prone constitution, you may leave small spots all over the body. Suitable for people with non-scarring constitutions. This treatment must be done in a hospital.

8. Principle of laser hair removal

The melanin pigment in the hair follicle absorbs the energy of the laser and destroys the hair follicle through the heat exchange generated, thus stopping the hair growth. It is suitable for people with light skin and fine and dark hair.

How to use

It should be operated by a professional doctor. Expert Tips: Laser treatment can damage the skin's pigmentation and form spots; if the laser pulses used are more or the energy is higher, scars may be left on the skin; there will be redness and heat after treatment, the skin may harden within two or three days, and there may be traces of treatment left on the skin.

9. Medical hair removal
