If you really want to take it off, you must choose a scientific and reasonable hair removal method to better care for your skin, otherwise it will cause skin swelling and pain, folliculitis and other diseases.
The most convenient-electric shaver
For people who are afraid of pain and allergic constitution, the first choice is naturally an electric hair removal knife, which is convenient and painless, with thorough hair removal, lasting for several days and no side effects on the skin. The second type is razor, which is suitable for short hair in smooth parts such as face, arms and legs, but not under the armpit. Disadvantages: the longer and thicker the hair. If the operation is careless, it is easy to scratch the capillaries and damage the skin.
Peng Wenfa reminded that it must be disinfected before depilation, and the surface can be wiped with alcohol, iodine or disinfectant paper towels. After depilation, it is best to use some antibiotics such as Baiduobang to prevent infection. If the skin feels uncomfortable, you can also apply some moisturizing cream.
The most thorough-laser hair removal
As for laser hair removal and freezing point hair removal, Peng Wenfa thinks that they are relatively safe and effective hair removal methods at present, and they are also relatively thorough. However, new hair may grow back in two years, but it can be done again if necessary.
Laser hair removal is to use the "selective photothermal effect" of laser to directly irradiate hair follicles, so that the melanin of the latter selectively absorbs light energy, thus generating thermal effects to inhibit or reduce hair growth and achieve the effect of permanent hair removal. Dong Li, a professor of plastic surgery at Peking University Third Hospital, said that people with darker hair are more suitable for laser hair removal, while people with yellow hair are not necessarily effective.
Freezing point hair removal is based on laser technology, plus ice fog spray, which makes the wound cool and painless to remove excess hair and reduce irritation and pain. The advantages of these two methods are: hair removal is clean and thorough, and skin luster is increased. Disadvantages are: the price is higher, ranging from 1200-2000 yuan; The course of treatment is long, such as freezing point depilation, which usually takes three or four months; If you don't pay attention to disinfection, it will cause skin infection, so you must choose a regular professional hospital for hair removal.
The most harmful to the skin-beeswax depilation
Common depilatory cream, depilatory liquid and beeswax all use the chemicals in them to dissolve the hair structure in order to achieve the purpose of depilation. Hao Fei, director, professor and doctoral supervisor of dermatology department of Southwest Hospital of the Third Military Medical University, said that this hair removal method should be used as little as possible, because the chemicals in inferior products will irritate the skin, while the relatively safe products have incalculable side effects because of repeated use.
Hair removal cream and hair removal milk are suitable for people who are afraid of pain but not allergic to skin. This method can quickly remove a large area of hair, but the chemical components in it are irritating to the skin, and frequent use may cause allergies, which is not suitable for physiological use.
The biggest harm to the skin is wax depilation. Because chemically synthesized beeswax is easy to cause irritation to the skin. When disassembling, the body hair is easy to stay in a part of pores, and the broken hair is easy to penetrate into hair follicles, causing folliculitis.
Experts emphasize that it is best not to pull out the hair of perineum in any hair removal method, because the hair here is to prevent the invasion of bacteria and protect the health of sensitive parts.
