All about permanent hair removal

Understanding your hair to get rid of it better

Your hair has definitely declared war on you and as with any good war, it is essential to know your opponent well. To finally put an end to hair, it is necessary to understand the characteristics of your hairiness. Depending on the different areas of our body, the life cycle of hair and its nature vary. It goes without saying that a pubic hair is much thicker and longer than a leg hair. The sebaceous gland would be largely responsible for the length of the hair and its life cycle. Indeed, this gland would be influenced by hormones and the characteristics of the person (sex, age, weight, metabolism and origin). From this, a secretion of sebum would result which would directly affect hair growth. In fact, the sebaceous gland would stimulate the bulb responsible for hair growth so that it then grows a hair.

What should we remember from this?

There are two intermediaries in hair growth, namely the sebaceous gland and the bulb. Unfortunately, you cannot control your sebaceous gland. With permanent hair removal, it is possible to affect the bulb to eliminate hair growth.

Waxing

If you have never experienced hot waxing, you probably associate this technique with little cries of pain. Rest assured, this pain fades quickly! Waxing is a relatively simple process that can be done in a salon or at home. This semi-permanent hair removal will free you from your hair for a period of 3 to 4 weeks depending on the person. For best results, it is recommended to exfoliate the area in question one day before your treatment and that the length of your hair is at least four millimeters. The heat of the wax will dilate the pores of the skin to better extract the hair in one go. Since the hair is extracted at the root, regrowth will be slower. The bulb, not being affected, will continue to grow the hair. This technique is perfect for hair removal on the legs, bikini area, armpits and even certain areas of the face. To avoid further irritation, it is advisable to avoid sun exposure directly after your treatment. As a precaution, it would be best to exfoliate the hair-removed area during the regrowth period, this will prevent the risk of ingrown hairs.

Why get hot wax hair removal in a salon?

This procedure, although simple, can in practice cause some inconvenience when it is poorly executed. Indeed, hot wax in a salon meets certified standards for your safety. At ESME Esthétique, hot wax hair removal treatments are performed with a wax approved by Health Canada. In addition, the heat of the wax is stable, which optimizes hair removal, but also prevents any burns. In addition, waxing at home can turn out to be a real game of Twister. Inevitably, some areas are more difficult to access than others. When your hair removal is performed by a beautician, you can enjoy your treatment while eliminating all your hair.

Laser hair removal

The popularity of laser hair removal has been growing in recent years. This form of permanent hair removal is only performed by a beauty professional. The procedure involves projecting the laser onto the hairy area. Thanks to the heat emanating from it, the laser burns the base of the bulb that produces the hair. After a few sessions, the laser will eliminate 60% to 90% of your hair. Depending on the laser used by the beauty salon and your level of sensitivity, it is possible to experience a slight burning sensation. However, some laser hair removal machines are painless. The myth is that this form of hair removal works exclusively on light skin with dark hair. Now, some machines are suitable for dark skin. Moreover, ESME Esthétique uses the Soprano Ice, a painless machine suitable for all skin types.

The results of laser hair removal are remarkable. The laser can treat all classic hair removal areas including the legs, bikini line, armpits and face. During the sessions, it is recommended to avoid tanning and protect yourself from the sun. Otherwise, it is possible to experience skin depigmentation.

Microtrolysis hair removal

This last form of permanent hair removal is sometimes overlooked. It is an old method that has gained popularity thanks to its dazzling success. Microtrolysis hair removal comes from traditional electrolysis. However, it is performed using a surgical microscope. To do this, the beautician precisely targets the orifice and the direction of hair growth and then sends a discharge specifically to the hair bulbs. After a few sessions, the results are breathtaking.

What is the difference between microtrolysis hair removal and laser hair removal?

First, this method is virtually painless. While some people are not candidates for laser, anyone can have microtrolysis. Regardless of your skin color, hair type, or even the thickness of your hair, microtrolysis removes it. Say goodbye to your annoying fuzz or laser residue! Microtrolysis removes 100% of your body and facial hair.
