Dark, short hairs appearing on the chin and under the nose look good on men, but not on women. The skin of a woman’s face should be soft, smooth and without unnecessary hair. Appearing in the exposed areas, the dark moss does not look aesthetically pleasing and is most likely the result of hormonal disorders. With laser epilation treatment, you can get rid of facial hair forever, as well as hair from other parts of your body.
Are depilation and epilation the same thing?
We associate depilation with the use of razors, wax, depilatories, and most of all…. with pain. These treatments only remove hair for a short while, as after two days the hair grows back and the problem returns. Epilation, unlike depilation, removes hair permanently. We can depilate the body in our own apartment, but epilation is a slightly more complicated procedure and it is worth using the services of a cosmetology office, one such place is Beauty Skin aesthetic medicine office in Warsaw. Laser epilation involves the emission of radiation that destroys hair. The skin pigment (melanin) absorbs the laser light and due to the strong heating of the hair bulb – damages it. During the laser trial, the size of the laser head and the amount of energy necessary to achieve satisfactory results for the patient are selected. The procedure can be performed under the arms, in the groin area, bikini area, on the calves, buttocks, as well as on the face.
Efficacy and safety of Vectus laser epilation
The result of the treatment depends on the hair growth cycle, which means that the laser only affects hair that is in the growth phase. If you want to permanently remove excessive or unwanted hair, the procedure should be repeated approx. 4 – 6 times,” advise the specialists at Beauty Skin in Warsaw. Laser epilation is completely safe and generally painless. Possible discomfort may accompany hair removal from more sensitive areas, such as the bikini or underarms, in which case the patient is anesthetized. The procedure is safe because it uses a skin cooling system. The cooling device is located in the laser head and protects the skin from burns. Laser epilation is advisable in winter, but if the epilated area is in a sun-protected area – there is nothing to prevent the procedure from being performed in the summer season.
Who is advised against the procedure?
Anyone can undergo laser epilation except pregnant or breastfeeding ladies, patients with pacemakers, people struggling with psoriasis, vitiligo, “fish scales,” epilepsy, skin infections in the area they intend to treat and fresh tans. Patients taking photosensitizing preparations (including calendula, St. John’s wort and others) should refrain from undergoing laser epilation.
Laser epilation using the Vectus laser
The Vectus laser is a device with which to remove disfiguring facial hair. Vectus is an effective and one of the most modern lasers used in aesthetic medicine. The procedure begins by determining the patient’s skin phototype, hair density and thickness, as well as the skin’s natural pigment content. After adjusting the parameters of the device, the specialist applies the laser head to the indicated part of the face, emitting a beam of light. The resulting facial redness quickly disappears. After the treatment, avoid the sauna and the sun to allow the skin to fully recover. For this purpose, ointments that regenerate the epidermis can be helpful.
What advantages does the Vectus laser have?
Some of the biggest benefits patients receive from the Vectus laser epilation treatment include:
- High level of security (Skintel melanin level reader and Advanced Contact CoolingSM cooling system),
- high efficiency (Photon RecyclingSM technology allows the light to be reused as it bounces off the patient’s skin, making the treatment more effective),
- short treatment time (a few minutes),
- Patient comfort (pain-free).
Laser hair removal is fast, effective and safe.
