The whole truth about the photoepilation procedure
Photoepilation is a highly effective method of hair removal that allows you to preserve the result for a long time. Although the photoepilation procedure is young, it is quite popular today. The effectiveness of the method is determined by its action, it is absolutely safe, although it has some disadvantages.

Principle of action of photoepilation
The procedure is carried out using a special device that emits light energy. The hair pigment melanin absorbs flashes of broadband light, as a result of which the hair follicle heats up to 70-80 ° C, and is completely destroyed. This process is accompanied by blockage of the small vessels that feed the follicle, so the removed hair no longer grows.

Choosing a specialist to carry out the procedure is of particular importance, because if the boundaries for removal are incorrectly placed, the hair follicle will only be damaged, which means that its growth will resume after time.

Features of photoepilation
Often, the photoepilation procedure is compared to laser removal of unwanted hair, because light energy is used to destroy hair follicles in both cases. However, photoepilation has its distinctive features:

• Removal of hairs from 1-2 mm in length (laser epilation removes hairs from 3-4 mm);
• shortness of execution of the procedure (wideband nozzles are used);
• the photoepilation procedure does not require an obvious contrast between skin and hair;
• complicated risks are reduced to a minimum.

Important! One-time execution does not bring the expected result, since part of the hair is always in a “sleeping” state. Therefore, repeated procedures are required.

Several types of equipment are used to perform the procedure, which differ in their parameters and characteristics, which also affects the quality of the procedure.
